Question
Sally, who has a mass of 55 kg, is sledding at the park. She places her 9-kg sled at the top of a hill and then runs with a velocity of 3 m/s and jumps on it. What is the combined velocity of Sally and the sled right after she jumps on, in m/s? (Round your answer to one decimal place if necessary.
