Sample Response: Yes, the law of conservation of momentum is satisfied. The total momentum before the
collision is 1.5 kg. m/s and the total momentum after the
collision is 1.5 kg. m/s. The momentum before and after
the collision is the same.

At a certain instant after jumping from the airplane a, a skydiver b is in the position shown and has reached a terminal (constant) speed vb = 52 m/s. the airplane has the same constant speed va = 52 m/s, and after a period of level flight is just beginning to follow the circular path shown of radius ρa = 2330 m. (a) determine the velocity and acceleration of the airplane relative to the skydiver. (b) determine the time rate of change of the speed vr of the airplane and the radius of curvature ρr of its path, both as observed by the nonrotating skydiver.
