Answer:
Total momentum, p = 55 kg-m/s
Explanation:
It is given that,
Mass of player 1, m₁ = 85 kg
Mass of player 2, m₂ = 105 kg
Speed of player 1, v₁ = -8 m/s (west)
Speed of player 2, v₂ = 7 m/s (east)
Momentum is equal to the product of mass and velocity. For this system, momentum is given by :
p = 55 kg-m/s
The total momentum of the system made up of the two players is 55 kg-m/s.
