In order to find the final velocity of the skier and the trash can lid, we may apply the principle of conservation of momentum, which states that the total momentum of a system remains constant. Mathematically, in this case:
m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = m₃v₃
Where m₃ and v₃ are the combined mass and velocity.
75*3 + 10*2 = (75 + 10)*v₃
v₃ = 2.88 m/s
The final velocity is 2.88 m/s
Answer:
They would keep on moving but unless being acted upon or stop slowly because of the friction
Explanation:
Answer:
displacement = 100 - 75 = 25 km east
