As a prank, your friends have kidnapped you in your sleep, and transported you out onto the ice covering a local pond. When you

wake up you are 32.5 m from the nearest shore. The ice is so slippery (i.e. frictionless) that you cannot seem to get yourself moving. You realize that you can use Newton's third law to your advantage, and choose to throw the heaviest thing you have, one boot, in order to get yourself moving. Take your weight to be 547 N. 1)(a) What direction should you throw your boot so that you will most quickly reach the shore?
