Your brother's mass is 40.0 kg, and he has a 1.30 kg skateboard. What is the combined momentum of your brother and his skateboard if they are going 8.50 m/s?

351.05 kg * m/s

Explanation:

Combined momentum is denoted with this formula:

In other words, the combined momentum of two masses is the sum of their masses multiplied by their velocity.

Let m₁v₁ represent the brother's mass and velocity, and let m₂v₂ represent the skateboard's velocity.

List out the known variables:

Substitute the known values into the equation.

The combined momentum of the brother and his skateboard is 351.05 kg * m/s.

the design of a ski jumping suit involves a trade-off between giving the skiers lift to get higher jumps and ensuring the skier does not face a lot of drag before the jump itself. an expansive suit may to lift the skier higher, but at the same time, it will also increase the air resistance. higher air resistance as the skier goes down the slope limits the speed of the jump. a big suit also increases the risk of losing balance or control, especially if there's a strong gust of wind. while technologically enhanced suits a lot, clothing is not the only factor in a ski jumper’s success. gathering speed while skiing down the slope, ensuring good speed on the ramp, and maintaining good body posture and form in the air all contribute to a ski jumper's success.
