Physics Problem: Conservation of Momentum and a Clay Ball Collision

A ball of clay has a mass of 50 grams and is moving in the x-direction with a speed of 2.2 m/s and collides with a second ball of clay moving in the negative y-direction with a mass of 75 grams and a speed of 3.2 m/s. If the two balls of clay stick together during the collision, what is their final velocity vector? What is the change in internal energy of the clay balls?
I'm working through chapter summaries for introductory physics (algebra-based). I'm using the Openstax online (free) textbook College Physics. You can access this book here openstax.org/d...
