Could you please explain your answer? Thank you
let's say that lumberjack will be m and v. log will be M and V.
a) conservation of momentum
mv(i) + MV(i) = mv(f) +MV(f) since the beginnig velocity of both of
them is zero so
0 = 98(2.8) + 230V(f)
V(f) = -1.193 m/s
b) again concervation of momentum
mv(i) + MV(i) = (m + M)v(f)
98(2.8) + 230(0) = (98+230)v(f)
v(f) = +0.837 m/s

A lumberjack (mass = 98 kg) is standing at rest on one end of a floating log (mass = 275 kg) that is also at rest. The lumberjack runs to the other end of the log, attaining a velocity of +3.5 m/s relative to the shore, and then hops onto an identical floating log that is initially at rest. Neglect any friction and resistance between the logs and the water. (a) What is the velocity of the first log just...
A lumberjack (mass = 98 kg) is standing at rest on one end of a floating log (mass = 215 kg) that is also at rest. The lumberjack runs to the other end of the log, attaining a velocity of +4.0 m/s relative to the shore, and then hops onto an identical floating log that is initially at rest. Neglect any friction and resistance between the logs and the water. (a) What is the velocity of the first log just...
A lumberjack (mass 98 kg) is standing at rest on one end of a floating log (mass = 290 kg) that is also at rest. The lumberjack runs to the other end of the log, attaining a velocity of +3.9 m/s relative to the shore, and then hops onto an identical floating log that is initially at rest. Neglect any friction and resistance between the logs and the water. (a) What is the velocity of the first log just before...
A lumberjack (mass = 94.4 kg) is standing at rest on one end of a floating log (mass = 279 kg) that is also at rest. The lumberjack runs to the other end of the log, attaining a velocity of +2.64 m/s relative to the shore, and then hops onto an identical floating log that is initially at rest. Neglect any friction and resistance between the logs and the water. (a) What is the velocity of the first log (again...
PLEASE ANSWER ALL PARTS, THANK YOU !!!!! You are sitting in a sled, at rest on a pond covered with nice, thick, frictionless ice. Your own mass of is 84.0 kg, and the mass of the sled when empty is 11.0 kg. (a) From shore, someone throws a baseball of mass 0.11 kg to you, and you catch it; the horizontal component of the ball’s velocity is 25.2 m/s. What will be the sled’s (and your) speed with respect to...
