9. A 2.0e+006 kg spacecraft is moving in the x-direction at a speed of 1.8e+004 m/s, and a 2.0e+005 kg asteroid is moving in the y-direction with a speed of 3.4e+004 m/s. Unfortunately, they are on a collision course. When they collide, the asteroid becomes imbedded in the spacecraft. What direction is the spacecraft (with the asteroid imbedded in it) moving immediately after the collision? A B C D E 36.6° CCW from the positive x-axis 10.7° CCW from the positive x-axis 15.1° CCW from the positive x-axis 41.0° CCW from the positive x-axis 31.6° CCW from the positive x-axis
