A 60-kg ice skater moves across the ice at a constant speed of 2.0 m/s. She is caught by her 80-kg partner, and then the pair continues to glide together. He is at rest when he catches her, and immediately afterward they both coast. Even though the "magnitude of the change in momentum" is requested, you should provide a negative sign if the final momentum is less than (or more negative) than the initial momentum.
Part A: What is their velocity just after the catch? Assume she moves in the positive x-direction before her partner catches her.
Part B: A skater follows the girl at a constant speed of 1.0 m/s. What is the magnitude of the girl's change in momentum in the reference frame of the skater?
Please answer with units.

Adiver named jacques observes a bubble of air rising from the bottom of a lake (where the absolute pressure is 3.50 atm) to the surface (where the pressure is 1.00 atm). the temperature at the bottom is 4.00 ∘c, and the temperature at the surface is 23.0 ∘c.what is the ratio of the volume of the bubble as it reaches the surface (vs) to its volume at the bottom (vb)? if jaques were to hold his breath the air in his lungs would be kept at a constant temperature. would it be safe for jacques to hold his breath while ascending from the bottom of the lake to the surface?

Water is siphoned from a large tank and discharges into the atmosphere through a 50-mm diameter tube. the end of the tube is b = 2.6 m below the tank bottom which is a = 6.7 m deep, and viscous effects are negligible. determine the maximum height h over which the water can be siphoned without cavitation occurring. atmospheric pressure is 101.4 kpa, and the water vapor pressure is 1.79 kpa (absolute). report your answer in meters to two decimal places.

Acentrifuge in a medical laboratory rotates at an angular speed of 3,700 rev/min. when switched off, it rotates through 54.0 revolutions before coming to rest. find the constant angular acceleration (in rad/s2) of the centrifuge. your response is within 10% of the correct value. this may be due to roundoff error, or you could have a mistake in your calculation. carry out all intermediate results to at least four-digit accuracy to minimize roundoff error. rad/s2
