Question

During a circus act, a performer thrills the crowd by catching a cannon ball shot at him. The cannon ball has a mass of m1 = 8.5 kg and the horizontal component of its velocity is v = 8.25 m/s when the performer, of mass m2 = 70.5 kg, catches it.

a)If the performer is on nearly frictionless roller skates, enter an expression for his recoil speed, in terms of the masses and initial speed.
