Answer:

In this their is no external force is acting so center of mass of the system will not move so

M

=3ms

60×3+20×v

=0

⇒v

=−9ms

negative sign indicate that trolley move opposite to the direction of the man velocity.

Energy produce by the man is used to give velocity to himself and the trolley

=1.08KJ

Hence the velocity of the trolley is 9ms
