Answer:

The speed with which just after he grabs her is 2.68 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of Erica, m = 38 m/s

Mass of Danny, m' = 46 kg

Erica reaches the high point of her bounce, Danny is moving upward past her at 4.9 m/s. At this moment, the initial speed of Erica will be 0. The momentum will remain conserved. Using the conservation of linear momentum as :

mu+m'u'=(m+m')V\\\\0+46\times 4.9=(38+46)V\\\\V=\dfrac{225.4}{84}\\\\V=2.68\ m/s

So, the speed with which just after he grabs her is 2.68 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Can you make the work output of a machine greater than the work input?
drek231 [11]
Nearly equal the output work is greater than the input work because of friction.All machines use some amount of input work to overcome friction.The only way to increase the work output is to increase the work you put into the machine.You cannot get more work out of a machine than you put into it.
