Q 3.

Two hockey players of opposite teams,while trying to.hit a hockey ball on the ground collide and immediately become entangled.One has a mass of 60 kg,and was moving with a velocity 5.0 m/s,while the other has a mass of 55 kg and was moving faster with a velocity of 6.0 m/s towards the first player,In which direction and with what velocity will they move after they become entangled ?
