12.Two ice skaters are initially at rest. The 78.2 kg male ice skater pushes his 48.5 kg female partner forward and away from his body with a velocity of 8.46 m/s. What is the male skater's velocity as a result of the push

-5.247 m/s

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of momentum,

Total momentum before collision = Total momentum after collision

Note: Since both ice skaters were initially at rest, therefore the total momentum before collision = 0

0 = mv+m'v'

-mv = m'v' Equation 1

Where m = mass of the male skater, m' = mass of the female skater, v = Final velocity of the male skater, v' = final velocity of the female skater

make v the subject of the equation

v = -(m'v'/m) Equation 2

Given: m = 78.2 kg, m' = 48.5 kg, v' = 8.46 m/s

Substitute into equation 2

v = -(48.5×8.46/78.2)

v = -5.247 m/s.

Hence the velocity of the male skater = -5.247 m/s.

Note: The negative sign means that the direction of the velocity of the male skater is in opposite direction to that of the velocity of the female skater

as we probably am aware that our atmosphere or air have various levels, each level has different gasses, and each gas has another porousness. at the point when the light originates from lower porousness to higher penetrability, it alters its course. with the goal that implies that when the light originates from the moon to the earth, it alters it's course a lot more occasions. it essentially implies that the state of the light piece of the moon is changed on the earth.

not copied too! hope this !

h o h o hope you have a merry christmas!
