Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of boy m_b=70.9\ kg

mass of girl m_g=43.2\ kg

speed of girl after push v_g=4.64\ m/s

Suppose speed of boy after push is v_b

initially momentum of system is zero so final momentum is also zero because momentum is conserved

P_i=P=f

0=m_b\cdot v_b+m_g\cdot v_g

v_b=-\frac{m_g}{m_b}\times v_g

v_b=-\frac{43.2}{70.9}\times 4.64  

v_b=-2.82\ m/s

i.e. velocity of boy is 2.82 m/s towards west

Answer:

the period T of whole motion should be twice the value for half at he bottom so T is 0.2sec.

w is angular frequency

formula:2π/T

now k is spring constant

F/R-->mw²

putting values:70*(2π/0.2)²

=4.9x10⁶

so we can say that SHM is not affected by the amplitude of the bounce.
