Question

Transcribed Image Text:10. An ice skater with a mass of 65 kg pushes off against a second skater with a mass of 35 kg. Both skaters are initially at rest
(a). What is the total momentum of the system after they pushed off?
(b). If the larger skater moves off with a speed of 5 m/s, what is the corresponding speed of the smaller skater?
