At the center of a 40.1 m diameter circular (frictionless) ice rink, a 72.8 kg skater travelling north at 1.14 m/s collides with and holds onto a 61.2 kg skater who had been heading west at 4.74 m/s. How long will it take them to glide to the edge of the rink? Ans: 8.90 s b)  Where will they reach it? Give your answer as an angle north of west. (Attached below is what I attempted for b), but apparently it is wrong)
