I was watching World's Dumbest Car Crashes and they posed an interesting question. If two fire trucks arrive at an intersection at the same time who has the right away?
at 19.0 m/s from east to west? a) Find the x -component of the net momentum of this system.
b) Find the y-component of the net momentum of this system.
c) What is the magnitude of the net momentum?
I know when it comes to vehicles it's always whoever is to the right...
But lets say:
The Car is the the right, and the bike to the left. I thought cars were supposed to give cars or people walking the right of way? >_> Or is it just who ever is to the right?

...moving with a speed of 17.5 m/s.? A 791-kg car stopped at an intersection is rear-ended by a 1820-kg truck moving with a speed of 17.5 m/s. If the car was in neutral and its brakes were off, so that the collision is approximately elastic, find the final speed of both vehicles after the...
...when it is hit by a 2500 SUV tra? A 1400kg sedan goes through a wide intersection traveling from north to south when it is hit by a 2500kg SUV traveling from east to west. The two cars become enmeshed due to the impact and slide as one thereafter. On-the-scene measurements show that the...
right, what speed should you travel? Granted, there is no posted speed limit on the 2nd road until after the next major intersection. The speed drops to 25 MPH, but you would not know it until you get to the sign. How would I find out the legal speed?
I'd also like to add that this section of...
