The boy jumps off from A at velocity 1,22 m/s rel- ative to A as shown. If he lands on B, determine the speed of both cars A and B after the jump. The boy has mass 27,3 kg and each car has mass 36,4 kg. Originally both cars are at rest. Neg- lect the mass of the wheels of the cars. Hint: the boy's velocity before he lands on B must also be calculated.
