### Problem 2: Collision of Skaters on Frictionless IceTwo skaters collide and grab onto each other on frictionless ice. One of them (mass = 70.0 kg) is moving to the right at 4.00 m/s, while the other (mass = 65.0 kg) is moving to the left at 2.50 m/s. What are the magnitude and direction of the velocity of these skaters just after they collide? ### Explanation:To solve this problem, we apply the conservation of momentum, which states that the total momentum before the collision is equal to the total momentum after the collision. Given the masses and velocities of both skaters, you calculate the final velocity after the collision.

A 69.0-kg person throws a 0.0495-kg snowball forward with a ground speed of 32.0 m/s. A second person, with a mass of 59.5 kg, catches the snowball. Both people are on skates. The first person is initially moving forward with a speed of 3.85 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.) thrower m/s (Give your answer to at least three decimal places.) catcher m/s
