I'm going to assume that he throws the book horizontally. Please hold your

applause until the calculations are complete and the answer is stated.

-- The student gives the book [ mv = 2.6 x 5 = 13 kg-m/sec ] of horizontal momentum

that way, thus giving himself 13 kg-m/sec of horizontal momentum the other way.

-- His own mass is 750/9.8 kg. His momentum is mv = 13 = 750v/9.8

His 'v' is 13 x 9.8/750 meters per second.

-- He has 5 meters to go to reach the coast/shore. The time it will take him

to slide that far is

T = (distance)/(speed) = 5/v = 5 x 750/(13 x 9.8) = 29.435 seconds (rounded)

Thank you. Thank you.
