A 58.0- kg person holding two 0.850- kg bricks stands on a 2.70- kg skateboard. Initially, the skateboard and the person are at rest. The person now throws the two bricks at the same time so that their speed relative to the person is 15.0 m/s . Part A What is the recoil speed of the person and the skateboard relative to the ground, assuming the skateboard moves without friction? v v = m/s
