Question

Transcribed Image Text:**Physics Problem: Boy and Skateboard Velocity**
A diagram shows a ramp inclined at 30° with a length labeled as "s". A boy is shown running towards a skateboard placed at the bottom of the ramp.
**Problem Statement:**
When the 37-kg boy jumps on the 9-kg skateboard, he has a horizontal velocity of 2 m/s. Meanwhile, the skateboard's velocity is 1 m/s in the opposite direction (indicated by the negative velocity of the skateboard).
**Question:**
What is the velocity of the boy on the skateboard once he is on it?
