Bob and Tom take a sled weighing 10 N to a frozen pond. The sled is initially at rest on the ice. Bob who weighs 490 N runs at 2 metres per second and jumps on the sled. A few seconds later, Tom who weighs 540N runs at 4 metres per second and jumps on the sled with Bob. Keep all values to 3 decimal places. A)What is the velocity of the sled after Bob jumps on to it? B)What is the velocity of the sled after Tom jumps on it?
