Stands in the middle of a frozen pond of radius

Reference no: EM13677926

805-N man stands in the middle of a frozen pond of radius 9.0 m. He is unable to obtain to the other side because of a lack of friction among his shoes and the ice. To overcome this difficulty, he throws his 1.2-kg physics textbook horizontally toward the north shore at a speed of 9.0 m/s. How long does it take him to reach the south shore?
