A 69.5-kg person throws a 0.0445-kg snowball forward with a ground speed of 35.0 m/s. A second person, with a mass of 57.0 kg, catches the snowball. Both people are on skates. The first person is initially moving forward with a speed of 2.60 m/s, and the second person is initially at rest. What are the velocities of the two people after the snowball is exchanged? Disregard the friction between the skates and the ice. (Take the direction the snowball is thrown to be the positive direction. Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.)

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 99 kg. The mass of the rock is 0.30 kg. Initially the wagon is rolling forward at a speed of 0.46 m/s. Then the person throws the rock with a speed of 15 m/s. Both speeds are relative to the ground. Find the speed of the wagon after the...
