Question

An 82kg male and 48kg female pari figure starting team are gliding across the ice of 7.4m/s preparing for a throw jump maneuver. The male starter tosses the female starter forward with a speed of 8.6n/s. Determine the speed of the male starter immediately after the throw.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(m1 + m2)*V1 = m2*V2 + m1*Vx

Vx = ((m1 + m2)*V1 - m2*V2) / m1

Vx = ((82 + 48)*7.4 - 48*8.6) /82 = 6.7 m/s
