Two ice skaters, with masses of 50.0 kg and 85.0 kg, are at the center of a 30.0 m -diameter-circular rink
Two ice skaters, with masses of 50.0 kg and 85.0 kg, are at the center of a 30.0 m -diameter-circular rink. The skaters push off against each other and glide to opposite edges of the rink.
If the heavier skater reaches the edge in 10.0 s, how long does the lighter skater take to reach the edge?
Homework Answers
I set up a proportion with m1/m2= t1/t2 which becomes 50/85 = t/10. I got an answer of 5.88s. MasteringPhysics said it was correct... though I'm sure there's another way to do it "using physics".

Three ice skaters meet at the center of a rink and each stands at rest facing the center, within arm's reach of the other two. On a signal, each skater pushes himself away from the other two across the frictionless ice. After the push, skater A with mass mA = 80.0 kg moves in the negative y-direction at 4.00 m/s and skater B with mass mB = 85.0 kg moves in the negative x-direction at 3.00 m/s. Find the x-...
