Question: Jack ( mass 5 6 . 0 kg ) is sliding due east with speed ( 8 . 0 0 mathrm { ~m

Jack (mass 56.0 kg ) is sliding due east with speed \(8.00\mathrm{~m}/\mathrm{s}\) on the surface of a frozen pond. He collides with Jill (mass 47.0 kg ), who is initially at rest. After the collision, Jack is traveling at \(5.00\mathrm{~m}/\mathrm{s}\) in a direction \(34.0^{\circ}\) north of east. Ignore friction.
Part A
