A 65 kg ice skater pushes off his partner and accelerates backwardsat 1.3 m/s2. If the partner accelerates in the opposite directionat 2.0 m/s2, what is the mass of the other skater? Assume thatfrictional forces are negligible.

Two skaters are studying collisions on an ice-covered (frictionlesslake). Skater 1 (m1=85 kg.) is initially travelling with a speed of5.0 m/s, and skate 2 (m2=120 kg.) is initially at rest. Skater 1then "collides" with skater 2, and they lock arms and travel awaytogether.
