Starting from rest, two skaters "push off against each other on smooth levelice, where friction is negligible. One is a woman and one is aman. The woman moves away with a velocity of +2.6 m/s relative to the ice The mass of the woman is 52 kg, and the mass of the man is 76 kg. Assuming that the speed of light is 4.6 m/s, so that the relativistic momentum must be used, find the recoil velocity of the man relative to the ice.
