Imagine that you and your lab partner are standing on smooth ice holding onto opposite ends of a long rope. There is no friction between your feet and the ice. You tug gently on the rope. (a)Describe the motion of you and your lab partner before, during, and after the tug. Be as specific as you can. Expla

Following are the complete solution to the given question:

Explanation:

In this question, before tug they are at rest, thus their initial momentum is 0 , according to the law of conservation thus both should move in the opposite direction whose sum of the momentums is equaled to zero as there is no friction they will continue to move with their velocities until their collision. Its collision doesn't happen it will continue up to an infinite distance.
