A 1250 kg car is moving down the highway with a velocity of 32.0 m/s when it bumps into the car ahead of it which has a mass of 875 kg and a velocity of 25.0 m/s. After the collision, the two cars stick together. What will be the resulting velocity of the two cars together? How much energy will be lost in this collision?
