Little Tammy lines up to tackle Jackson to (unsuccessfully) prove the law of conservation of momentum. Tammy’s mass is 34.0 kg and Jackson’s is 54.0 kg. Jackson is running at a velocity of 3.0 m/s. What must Tammy’s minimum velocity be in order to stop Jackson’s forward momentum?

Answer:
law of conservation of momentum: mass of Tammy × velocity =mass of Jackson × velocity
Explanation:
so 34.0 kg ×v = 54.0 kg ×3.0 m/s
34.0 kg v = 162= v= 162/34

Answer:
4.764 m/s
Explanation:
Conservation of momentum =
m1u1 = m2u2
m1 = Mass of Jackson = 54 kg
u1 = Velocity of Jackson = 3 m/s
m2 = Mass of Tammy = 34 kg
u2 = Velocity of Tammy = Find
=> 54 * 3 = 34 * u2
=> 162 = 34u2
=> 162/34 = u2
=> u2 = 4.764 m/s
