Physics

Two skydivers are holding on to each other while fallingstraight down at a common terminal speed of 63.10 m/s. Suddenly,they push away from each other. Immediately after separation, thefirst skydiver (who has a mass of 89.30 kg) has the followingvelocity components (with \"straight down\" corresponding to thepositive z-axis):

v1x=4.93 m/s      v1y=3.75m/s     v1z=63.1 m/s

What are the x- and y-components of the velocity of the secondskydiver, whose mass is 57.70 kg, immediately after separation?

What is the change in kinetic energy of the system?
