× Incorrect.
A wagon is rolling forward on level ground. Friction is negligible. The person sitting in the wagon is holding a rock. The total mass of the
wagon, rider, and rock is 91.9 kg. The mass of the rock is 0.279 kg. Initially the wagon is rolling forward at a speed of 0.547 m/s. Then
the person throws the rock with a speed of 16.3 m/s. Both speeds are relative to the ground. Find the speed of the wagon after the rock
is thrown (a) directly forward in one case and (b) directly backward in another.
