Physics

Starting from rest, two skaters \"push off\" against each other onsmooth level ice, where friction is negligible. One is a woman andone is a man. The woman moves away with a velocity of +2.4 m/srelative to the ice. The mass of the woman is 51 kg, and the massof the man is 75 kg. Assuming that the speed of light is 4.6 m/s,so that the relativistic momentum must be used, find the recoilvelocity of the man relative to the ice.
