Valerie and George also join NASA to improve their transfer applications. They are doing a space walk outside the International Space Station (ISS) when the tether connecting them to it snaps and they begin to drift aimlessly in space. George remembers his Physics training and tells Valerie that if they hold each other and she throws her new iPhone 14 away from the ISS, then it will also push them towards the ISS and they would be saved. Valerie agrees, but instead pushes George away from the ISS, giving him a speed of 12 m/s. If George is 200 pounds of pure muscle (90.7 kg). Valerie is 115 pounds (52.2 kg), and they are both wearing 50 pound (22.7 kg) space suits, what is Valerie's speed towards the ISS?
