Answer:

v2 = 27.3m/s

Explanation:

Assuming forward as positive.

Mass = m1 = 64kg

Let v be the common velocity of the student and the skateboard.

mass of skateboard = m2 = 5.94kg

v = 1.4m/s

Since the skateboard and the student are initially moving together at the same velocity their momentum together is

(m1 + m2)v

Let the final velocity of the student be v1 and the final velocity of the skateboard be v2

v1 = – 1.0m/s (falls backwards that's why the velocity is negative since we are assuming forward as positive)

Then from conservation of momentum, momentum before is equal to momentum after.

(m1 + m2)v = m1v1 + m2v2

m2v2= (m1 + m2)v – m1v1

v2 = ( (m1 + m2)v – m1v1)/m2

v2 = ( (64 + 5.94)×1.4 – 64×(-1.0))/5.94

v2 = ( (64 + 5.94)×1.4 + 64×1.0)/5.94

v2 = 27.3m/s

°C = (5/9) · (°F-32)

The "wet" thermometer is the upper one ... you can see the wet cloth wrapped around the bulb at the end.  It's reading 70° F.

°C = (5/9) · (38) = 21.1° C

The "dry" thermometer is the lower one.  It's reading 80° F.

°C = (5/9) · (48) = 26.7° C

So it looks like choice-A is your answer.
