(a) The distance will be more than 2.0 meters.
In fact, you starts your fall after your friend has already fallen 2.0 meters. This means that your friend has already accelerated for a while, therefore his velocity will be greater than yours. But this statement will be actually true for the entire fall, since you has some delay, therefore when your friend will hit the water, the separation between you and him will be greater than the initial separation of 2.0 meters.
b) First of all we need to calculate the height of the bridge with respect to the water. We know that you take 1.6 s to fall down, therefore we can use the following equation:

We know that your friend will take 1.6 s to falls down. Instead, you start your jump after he has already fallen 2.0 m, therefore after a time given by the equation:

Using S=2.0 m,

So we know that you start your fall 0.64 s after your friend. Therefore, now we can find how much did you fall between the moment you started your fall (0.64 s) and the moment your friend hits the water (1.6 s). Using

we find

So, when your friend hits the water, you just covered 4.52 m, while he already covered 12.56 m. Therefore, the separation between you and your friend is more than 2 meters.
Explanation:
Take south to be negative.
a. Momentum is mass times velocity.
p = mv
p = (540 kg) (-6 m/s)
p = -3240 kg m/s
p = 3240 kg m/s south
b. Impulse = change in momentum
J = Δp
Since the mass is constant:
J = mΔv
J = (540 kg) (-4 m/s − (-6 m/s))
J = 1080 kg m/s
J = 1080 kg m/s north
Answer:
W = (F1 - mg sin θ) L, W = -μ mg cos θ L
Explanation:
Let's use Newton's second law to find the friction force. In these problems the x axis is taken parallel to the plane and the y axis perpendicular to the plane
Y Axis
N -
=
N = W_{y}
X axis
F1 - fr - Wₓ = 0
fr = F1 - Wₓ
Let's use trigonometry to find the components of the weight
sin θ = Wₓ / W
cos θ = W_{y} / W
Wₓ = W sin θ
W_{y} = W cos θ
We substitute
fr = F1 - W sin θ
Work is defined by
W = F .dx
W = F dx cos θ
The friction force is parallel to the plane in the negative direction and the displacement is positive along the plane, so the Angle is 180º and the cos θ= -1
W = -fr x
W = (F1 - mg sin θ) L
Another way to calculate is
fr = μ N
fr = μ W cos θ
the work is
W = -μ mg cos θ L
