In principle, anytime someone jumps up, the earth moves in theopposite direction. To see why we are unaware of this motion,calculate the recoil speed of the earth when a 85.0 {\rm kg} personjumps upward at a speed of 2.30 {\rm m}/{\rm s}.

v= m/s

How fast can you set the Earth moving? In particular, when you jumpstraight up as high as you can, what is the maximum recoil speedthat you give to the Earth? Let your mass be 83.0 kg and yourmaximum jump height be 0.350 m. Model the Earth as a perfectlysolid object.

A man of mass m is standing on a platform of mass M kept on smooth ice. If the man starts moving on the platform with a speed v relative to the platform, with what velocity relative to the ice does the platform recoil?
