The figures below show bird's-eye views of six automobile crashes an instant before they occur. The automobiles have different masses and incoming velocities as shown. After impact, the automobiles remain joined together and skid to rest in the direction shown by Ufinal Rank these crashes according to the angle, measured counterclockwise as shown, at which the wreckage initially skids.
