Two ice skaters, with masses of 75 kg and 57 kg, stand facing each other on a 19-m-wide frozen river. The skaters push off against each other, glide backward straight toward the river's edges, and reach the edges at exactly the same time. Part A How far did the 75 kg skater glide? Express your answer with the appropriate units. HA L = Value Units
