Two ice skaters, one with a mass of 50 kg and the other with a mass of 70 kg, stand facing each other on the surface of a frozen pond. One of the skaters exerts a 150 N force against the other. Calculate the magnitude of the acceleration of each skater

Respuesta :

Given:

The masses of the skaters are,

[tex]\begin{gathered} m_1=50\text{ kg} \\ m_2=70\text{ kg} \end{gathered}[/tex]

The force exerted is,

[tex]F=150\text{ N}[/tex]

To find:
