Answer:
The man moves across the ice with a speed of 0.345m/s.
Explanation:
From the conservation of linear momentum, we have that the total linear momentum before the book throw is equal to the total linear momentum just after it. Since the initial velocity of the system is zero (so the initial momentum is zero), we have that:
Where 
is the mass of the man, 
is the mass of the book, and 
and 
are their velocities. Plugging in the given values, we can compute the speed of the man (ignoring the negative sign, because we care about the magnitude, not the direction):
In words, the resulting speed of the man is 0.345m/s.
The distance an object falls, from rest, in gravity is
D = (1/2) (G) (T²)
'T' is the number seconds it falls.
In this problem,
0.92 meter = (1/2) (9.8) (T²)
Divide each side by 4.9 : 0.92 / 4.9 = T²
Take the square root
of each side: √(0.92/4.9) = T
0.433 sec = T
The horizontal speed doesn't make a bit of difference in
how long it takes to reach the floor. BUT ... if you want to
know how far from the table the pencil lands, you can find
that with the horizontal speed.
The pencil is in the air for 0.433 second.
In that time, it travels
(0.433s) x (1.4 m/s) = 0.606 meter
from the edge of the table.
I think there is only one.
