'Two 22.7 kg ice sleds initially at rest, are placed a short distance apart, one directly behind the other; as shown in Fig: 1.A 3.63 kg cat, standing on the left sled, jumps across to the right one and immediately comes back to the first: Both jumps are made horizontally at a speed of 3.05 m/s relative to the ice. Ignore the friction between the sled and ice.

Find the final speeds of the two sleds_
(6) Calculate the impulse on the cat as it lands on the right sled: (c) Find the average force on the right sled applied by the cat while landing: Consider that the cat takes 12 ms t0 finish the landing:'
