A boy of mass 43.2 kg runs and jumps onto a stationary skateboard.The boy lands on the skateboard with a horizontal velocity of 4.10 m/s.The skateboard has a mass of 2.50 kg.
Using ideas about conservation of momentum, calculate the combined
velocity of the boy and skateboard just after the boy lands on it.

Answer:

= 3.87 m/s

Explanation:

Since momentum is conserved, momentum right before and after the boy jumps onto the skateboard should be the same.

Initial momentum = momentum of boy = 43.2 x 4.10 = 177 kg·m/s

Final momentum = momentum of boy and skateboard = (43.2 + 2.50) x v = 45.7v

177 = 45.7v

v = 177 / 45.7 = 3.87 m/s

(Hope this helps can I pls have brainlist (crown)☺️)
