During an ice show a50.0kg skater leaps into the air and is caught by an initially stationary90.0kg skater. (a) What is their final velocity in meters per second assuming negligible friction and that the50.0-kg skater's original horizontal velocity was 4.00 m/s? (b) How much kinetic energy is lost in joules?
