Two ice skaters approach each other at right angles. Skater A has a mass of 27.4 kg and travels in the x direction at 1.23 m/s. Skater B has a mass of 49.4 kg and is moving in the y direction at 0.759 m/s. They collide and cling together. Find the final speed of the couple. Answer in units of m/s.

That depends on what kind of environ meant it is in  in space it has the same force that was applied when the velocity was gained

Scientific classification

How is it possible that phylogenies based on sequences from nuclear genomes and organellar genomes (i.e., chloroplasts and mitochondria) from the same group of species yield phylogenetic trees with different branching orders?   answer :   the genome of the endosymbiont is more closely related to members of the group in which it originally evolved, while the nuclear genome of the engulfing organism has its own evolutionary trajectory.
