At the center of a 50-m-diameter circular ice rink, a 74 kg skater traveling north at 2.3 m/s collides with and holds onto a 61 kg skater who had been heading west at 3.1 m/s . How long will it take them to glide to the edge of the rink? Where will they reach it? Give your answer as an angle north of west.

Three ice skaters meet at the center of a rink and each stands at rest facing the center, within arm's reach of the other two. On a signal, each skater pushes himself away from the other two across the frictionless ice. After the push, skater A with mass mA = 80.0 kg moves in the negative y-direction at 4.00 m/s and skater B with mass mB = 95.0 kg moves in the negative x-direction at 3.50 m/s. Find the x-...
