    Two friends, Al and Jo, have a combined mass of 168 kg. At an ice skating rink they stand close together on skates, at rest and facing each other, with a compressed spring between them. The spring is kept from pushing them apart because they are holding each other. When they release their arms, Al moves off in one direction at a speed of 0.75 m/s, while Jo moves off in the opposite direction at a speed of 1.5 m/s....

    Two friends, Al and Jo, have a combined mass of 170 kg. At the ice skating rink, they stand close together on skates, at rest and facing each other. Using their arms, they push on each other for 1 second and move off in opposite directions. Al moves off with a speed of 11.8 m/sec in one direction and Jo moves off with a speed of 7.6 m/sec in the other. You can assume friction is negligible. 1) What is...

    need help with this two questions, please !! Two ice skaters, Daniel (mass 60.0 kg) and Rebecca (mass 45.0 kg), are practicing. Daniel stops to tie his shoelace and, while at rest, is struck by Rebecca, who is moving at 13.0 m/s before she collides with him. After the collision, Rebecca has a velocity of magnitude 7.00 m/s at an angle of 54.1" from her initial direction. Both skaters move on the frictionless, horizontal surface of the rink. What is...

    QUESTION 1 Two skaters, one of mass 80 kg, the other of mass 40 kg, are standing next to each other on frictionless ice rink. The 40 kg skater pushes the 80 kg skater. After the push, the 80 kg skater is going at 1 m/s. How fast and in what direction is the 40 kg skater going after the push? (HINT: use the fact that since there are no external forces, the velocity of the center of mass of...

    The heaviest wild lion ever measured had a mass of 313 kg. Suppose this lion is walking by a lake when it sees an empty boat floating at rest near the shore. The curious lion jumps into the boat with a speed of 6.00 m/s, causing the boat with the lion in it to move away from the shore with a speed of 2.50 m/s. How much kinetic energy is dissipated in this inelastic collision.
