He has a mass of 56 kg.
The equation given is PE = mgh.
PE = 4620 J
h = 8.4
g = 9.8
Therefore:
4620 = 82.32m
m = 4620/82.32
m = 56 (rounded to two significant digits)

Answer:
a. 37.7 kgm/s b. 0.94 m/s c. -528.85 J
Explanation:
a. The initial momentum of block 1 of m₁ = 1.30 kg with speed v₁ = 29.0 m/s is p₁ = m₁v₁ = 1.30 kg × 29.0 m/s = 37.7 kgm/s
The initial momentum of block 2 of m₁ = 39.0 kg with speed v₂ = 0 m/s since it is initially at rest is p₁ = m₁v₁ = 39.0 kg × 0 m/s = 0 kgm/s
So, the magnitude of the total initial momentum of the two-block system = (37.7 + 0) kgm/s = 37.7 kgm/s
b. Since the blocks stick together after the collision, their final momentum is p₂ = (m₁ + m₂)v where v is the final speed of the two-block system.
p₂ = (1.3 + 39.0)v = 40.3v
From the principle of conservation of momentum,
p₁ = p₂
37.7 kgm/s = 40.3v
v = 37.7/40.3 = 0.94 m/s
So the final velocity of the two-block system is 0.94 m/s
c. The change in kinetic energy of the two-block system is ΔK = K₂ - K₁ where K₂ = final kinetic energy of the two-block system = 1/2(m₁ + m₂)v² and K₁ = final kinetic energy of the two-block system = 1/2m₁v₁²
So, ΔK = K₂ - K₁ = 1/2(m₁ + m₂)v² - 1/2m₁v₁² = 1/2(1.3 + 39.0) × 0.94² - 1/2 × 1.3 × 29.0² = 17.805 J - 546.65 J = -528.845 J ≅ -528.85 J
