Answer:
(D) It is equal to the original velocity of the skater.
Explanation:
The velocity of the center of mass of a system is

The velocity of the center of mass is constant if there is no external force, because the total momentum of the whole system is conserved.
So, before the snowball is thrown, the velocity of the center of mass is equal to that of the skater. This velocity will always be equal to the velocity of the center of mass of the system.
Answer:
Average speed, 
Explanation:
Given:
- Initial speed, u=40 cm/s
- final speed , v=20 cm/s
- Time taken, t=5 s
<u>First case</u>
Using equation of motion we have

Now using,

now putting the value of a in first equation we get

<u>Second case</u>
Acceleration
Time taken 
using equation of motion in one Dimension we have

Average speed is equal to total distance travelled per unit total time taken

Let the directions are defined by vectors as following
East = + x direction
West = - x direction
North = + y direction
South = - y direction
upwards = + z direction
downwards = - z direction
So here we are given that it moves
1). 10 m East
2). 9 m South
3). 3 m North
4). 2 m down
So we can write it as




Now total displacement will be given as



now the magnitude of the displacement will be


so the magnitude of displacement will be 11.8 m
