In a displacement versus time graph, the slope of the line at any point on the graph indicates the <em>magnitude of velocity</em>.

(It can't indicate velocity completely, because the graph shows nothing about the direction of the motion.)

Some kids are playing by rolling a skateboard across level ground beside a 0.75 m high wall. The goal is to drop from the wall v

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The speed of the kid and the skateboard together is 0.723 m/s

Explanation:

Let the mass of the kid be $m_{k} = 45 kg$

Let the mass of the skateboard be $m_{s} = 4,5 kg$

The initial speed of the skateboard, $v_{s} = 8 m/s$

The initial horizontal speed of the boy as he jumps on the skateboard, $v_{k} = 0 m/s$

Let the speed of the kid and the skateboard together be v

According to the principle of conservation of momentum:

$m_{k} v_{k} + m_{s} v_{s} = (m_{k} + m_{s}) v$

Substituting the appropriate values into the given equation

$(45*0) + (4.5*8) = (45 + 4.8) v$

36 = 49.8 v

v = 36/49.8

v = 0.723 m/s
