Two ice skaters are gliding together along the ice, both moving at the same, constant velocity (sliding without exerting a force). The first skater (the one in the back), with mass M1 = 62.3 kg, pushes the second skater (the one in front), with mass M2 = 70.4 kg, directly forward in the direction they are initially moving. After the push the first skater is not moving (velocity = 0) and the second skater is moving with a velocity of 3.70 m/s.
What is the initial speed of the skaters? Give your answer in m/s to three significant digits. You will not be graded on the number of significant digits, this is just to be sure your answer is not counted incorrect due to rounding.
Do not include units in your answer.
(Note: You can assume the friction of the ice on the skaters can be neglected.)

Two ice skaters are gliding together along the ice, both moving at a constant velocity vi = 4.39 m/s (sliding without exerting a force). The first skater, the one in the back, with mass M1 = 79.6 kg, pushes the second skater, the one in front, with mass M2 = 57.3 kg, directly forward in the direction they are initially moving. After the push the first skater is not moving (velocity = 0) and the second skater is moving with...

Part III: Solve the following problems Two skaters gliding on ice run into each other head-on. If the two skaters hold onto each other and continue to move as a unit after the collision, what will be their resultant velocity? Skater A has a velocity of 5 m/s and a mass of 65 kg. Skater B has a velocity of 6 m/s and a mass of 60 kg.

Two ice skaters stand at rest in the center of an ice rink. When they push off against one another the 70-kg skater acquires a speed of 0.69 m/s If the speed of the other skater is 0.88 m/s. What is the skater's mass? Express your answer using two significant figures. m_2 =

Three ice skaters meet at the center of a rink and each stand 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 3.50 m/s and skater B with mass mB = 75.0 kg moves in the negative x-direction at 4.00 m/s. Find the x-...
