Use conservation of momentum.

Initial momentum = 0

Final momentum = momentum of the girl + momentum of the boy = inifial momentum = 0.

Momentum of the girl = - momentum of the boy

mass of the girl * velocity of the girl = - mass of the boy * velocity of the boy

50 kg * velocity of the girl = - 80 kg * 3m/s

=> velocity of the girls = -80 kg * 3m/s / 50 kg = - 4.8 m/s

Answer: - 4.8 m/s

What is inertia?by Walter Levin..<br>​
Tom [10]

Inertia is directly proportional to mass.

What is Walter Lewin famous for?

Walter Hendrik Gustav Lewin (born January 29, 1936) is a Dutch astrophysicist and former professor of physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Lewin earned his doctorate in nuclear physics in 1965 at the Delft University of Technology and was a member of MIT's physics faculty for 43 years beginning in 1966 until his retirement in 2009.

According to Walter Levin,

The concept of moment of inertia is demonstrated by rolling a series of cylinders down an inclined plane.

Inertia is the resistance of any physical object to a change in its velocity. This includes changes to the object's speed, or direction of motion. An aspect of this property is the tendency of objects to keep moving in a straight line at a constant speed when no forces act upon them.

By rolling a series of cylinders down on an inclined plane , he demonstrated that a cylinder have a smooth friction.

He compares the rolling cylinder by using hollow cylinder and a heavy cylinder , and finalize the result that a hollow cylinder moves slowly but the heavy cylinder move faster.

Hence , By doing this experiment he explained about the inertia that Inertia depend on the mass of the object. As the heavy the object it will take more time to travel or move.

What are the three ways that a person can manipulate light?
BARSIC [14]

The three ways a person can manipulate light would be the following:, filter, and the time the photograph is taken

 

<span>1.    </span>Angle - <span>The </span>camera angle<span> <span>marks the specific location at which the movie </span></span>camera<span> <span>or video </span></span>camera<span> is placed to take a shot.</span>

<span>2.    </span>Filter - Camera<span> <span>lens </span></span>filters<span> <span>still have many uses in digital photography, and should be an important part of any photographer's </span></span>camera<span> bag.</span>

<span>3.    </span>Time the photograph is taken - The golden hour, sometimes called the "magic hour", is roughly the first hour of light after sunrise, and the last hour of light before sunset, although the exact duration varies between seasons. During these times the sun is low in the sky, producing a soft, diffused light which is much more flattering than the harsh midday sun that so many of us are used to shooting in.

 

I am hoping that these answers have satisfied your queries and it will be able to help you in your endeavors, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.
