A 59 kg physics student jumps off the back of her Laser sailboat (42kg). After she jumps, the Laser is found to be travelling at 1.5 m/s. What is the speed of the physics student?


The same physics student jumps off the back of her Laser again, but this time the Laser is already travelling at 3.1 m/s before she jumps. If the physics student jumps off with a speed of 2.1 m/s, how fast is the Laser going after she jumps?
