Answer:
The speed of the plank relative to the ice is:
Explanation:
Here we can use momentum conservation. Do not forget it is relative to the ice.
(1)
Where:
- m(g) is the mass of the girl
- m(p) is the mass of the plank
- v(g) is the speed of the girl
- v(p) is the speed of the plank
Now, as we have relative velocities, we have:
(2)
v(g/b) is the speed of the girl relative to the plank
Solving the system of equations (1) and (2)
I hope it helps you!
By vector addition.
In fact, velocity is a vector, with a magnitude intensity, a direction and a verse, so we can't simply do an algebraic sum of the two (or more velocities).
First we need to decompose each velocity on both x- and y-axis (if we are on a 2D-plane), then we should do the algebraic sum of all the components on the x- axis and of all the components on the y-axis, to find the resultants on x- and y-axis. And finally, the magnitude of the resultant will be given by
where Rx and Rx are the resultants on x- and y-axis. The direction of the resultant will be given by
where
is its direction with respect to the x-axis.
