empty freight car, coasting at....? 10 m/s, strikes a loaded car that is stationary, and the cars couple together. Each of the cars has a mass of 3000 kg when empty, and the loaded car contains 12,000 kg of canned soda (a year's supply for the Physics class). With what speed does the combination of the two cars start to move?

Can you guys please show me your work so I can understand???
