A 65.8-kg person throws a 0.0462 kg snowball forward with a ground speed of 32.5 m/s. A second person, with a mass of 58.7 kg, catches the snowball. Both people are on skates. The first person is initially moving forward with a speed of 2.51 m/s, and the second person is initially at rest. (Disregard the friction between the skates and the ice.) (a) What is the speed of the thrower after the snowball is exchanged? (b) What is the speed of the catcher after the snowball is exchanged?
Homework Answers
Answer #1
Concept: use the momentum conservation principle first considering thrower and the snowball as a system to find the thrower’s speed and then consider the snowball and the catcher as a system
