A 53.4 kg girl is at rest on 3.55 kg skateboard. She jumps forward at 1.32 m/s. What is the velocity of the skateboard afterword

M = mass of the girl = 53.4 kg

m = mass of skateboard = 3.55 kg

V' = velocity of the combination of girl and skateboard before she jumps forward = 0 \frac{m }{s}

V = velocity of the girl forward = 1.32 \frac{m }{s}

v = velocity of the skateboard afterward = ?

Using conservation of momentum

(M + m) V' = MV + m v

inserting the values

(53.4 + 3.55) (0) = (53.4) (1.32) + (3.55) v

v = - 19.86 \frac{m }{s}

a man stands in a lift going downward with uniform velocity. he experiences a loss of weight at the start but not when lift is i
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

It is explained in the explanation section

Explanation:

When the lift starts going downwards, it will start accelerating downwards. After a while, it will start moving with a constant velocity.

Constant velocity means that acceleration is zero and so the man will not feel any weight loss.

Now, Once the lift achieves constant velocity the acceleration is zero hence he will not experience any weight loss.

However, when the lift is in uniform motion, the lift and the man will fall down with an acceleration(a) that is less than that due to gravity(g) . Thus, the man will feel an apparent weight F which is not equal to zero.
