Answer:

5.12\:\text{m/s}

Explanation:

From the conservation of momentum, the total momentum of the system before and after the collision must be the same. Therefore, let the momentum of Homeboy Joe be p_b and let the mass of Homegirl Jill be p_j. We can write the following equation:

p_{bi}+p_{ji}=p_{bf}+p_{jf}, where subscripts i and f represent initial and final momentum respectively.

The momentum of an object is given by p=mv.

Therefore, we have:

m_{b}v_{bi}+m_{j}v_{ji}=m_{b}v_{bf}+m_{b}v_{jf} (some messy subscripts but refer to the values being plugged in you're confused what corresponds with what).

Plugging in values, we have:

99.5\cdot 6.65 + 68.8\cdot (-1.10)=99.5\cdot 2.35+ 68.8\cdot v_{jf}.

Solving, we get:

v_{jf}=\frac{99.5\cdot 6.65+68.8\cdot (-1.10)-99.5\cdot2.35}{68.8},\\v_{jf}=5.11875,\\v_{jf}\approx \boxed{5.12\:\text{m/s}}.

It's important to note that velocity is vector quantity, so the negative velocity assigned to Jill simply implies she is moving at 1.10\:\text{m/s} in the opposite of Joe's direction. After the collision, she is now moving 5.12\:\text{m/s} in the same direction that Joe was initially moving, due to Joe's relatively large mass and initial velocity.

How does kinetic energy connect or relate to Newtons second law of motion?
Orlov [11]
Newtons second law of motion: "T<span>he acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object."

kinetic energy is energy that an object posses while in motion and to get that it must have potential energy.</span>
