Joe, standing stationary on a beach, sees a small boat of mass M = 161 kg go by at constant speed V = 23.7 m/s. Tom, a man of mass m = 77.9 kg, stands at rest at the back of the boat. Suddenly Tom begins to run toward the front of the boat at speed vrel = 3.04 m/s relative to the boat. Find the speed of the boat v, relative to Joe, while Tom is running.
