Answer:
v = 2.18m/s
Explanation:
In order to calculate the speed of Betty and her dog you take into account the law of momentum conservation. The total momentum before Betty catches her dog must be equal to the total momentum after.
Then you have:
(1)
M: mass Betty = 40kg
m: mass of the dog = 15kg
v1o: initial speed of Betty = 3.0m/s
v2o: initial speed of the dog = 0 m/s
v: speed of both Betty and her dog = ?
You solve the equation (1) for v:
The speed fo both Betty and her dog is 2.18m/s
