An amateur skater of mass M is trapped in the middle of an ice rink and is unable to return to the side where there is no ice. Every motion she makes causes her to slip on the ice and remain in the same spot. She decides to try to return to safety by throwing her gloves of mass m in the direction opposite the safe side. (a) She throws the gloves as hard as she can, and they leave her hand with a horizontal velocity vgloves. Explain whether or not she moves. (b) If she does move, calculate her velocity vgirl relative to the Earth after she throws the gloves. (c) Discuss her motion from the point of view of the forces acting on her.
Figure P9.59a shows an overhead view of the configuration of two pucks of mass In on frictionless ice. The pucks are tied together with a string of length 1' and negligible mass. At time t = 0, a constant force of magnitude F begins to pull to the right on the center point of the string. At time t, the moving pucks strike each other and stick together. At this time, the force has moved through a distance 4 and the pucks have attained a speed v (Fig. P9.59b). (a) What is v in terms of F, d, e, and in?
