Three kids are riding on a snow sled traveling horizontally without friction at 19.8 m/s. The masses of Kid A, B, and C are 42.8 kg, 31.5 kg, and 25.9 kg, respectively.

What is the new velocity of the sled if Kid A jumps off vertically from the sled? (Kid A velocity = 0)

MathPhys

Explanation:

Momentum is conserved:

m₁v₁ = m₂v₂

(42.8 kg + 31.5 kg + 25.9 kg) (19.8 m/s) = (31.5 kg + 25.9 kg) v

v = 34.6 m/s
