Three balls of clay have masses m1 =115 g,speeds v1=1.44 m/s m2=149 g, v2=1.10 m3=121 g, v3=1.80 m/s. They move in the directions shown: (1) at 45° from the horizontal, (2) horizontally left, and (3) vertically up. They collide simultaneously and stick together. Calculate the speed and the direction of the resulting blob of clay. I solved the speed to be 0.290 m/s it's the direction I am having trouble with
