Momentum is conserved find the mass of the receiver

Reference no: EM13565395

In a football game, a receiver is standing still, having just caught a pass. Before he can move, a tackler, running at a velocityof +3.79 m/s, grabs him. The tackler holds onto the receiver, andthe two move off together with a velocity of +1.55 m/s. The mass of the tackler is 85.6 kg. Assuming that momentum is conserved, find the mass of the receiver.
