Two skaters are studying collisions on an ice-covered

Reference no: EM13563978

Two skaters are studying collisions on an ice-covered (friction-less) lake. Skater 1, (m₁=85 kg) is initiallytraveling with a speed of 5.0 m/s, and skater 2 (m₂=120kg) is intially at rest. Skater 1 then "collides" with skater 2 and they lock arms and travel away together. Express the conservationcondition of your system and does your system under go an elastic collision or an inelastic collision?
