Energy Change During a Hip Check. Ice-hockey star Wayne Gretzky is skating at 13.0 m/s toward a defender, who in turn is skating at 5.0 m/s toward Gretzky . Gretzky's weight is 756 N; that of the defender is 900 N. Immediately after the collision, Gretzky is moving at 1.5 m/s in his original direction. You can ignore external horizontal forces applied by the ice to the skaters during the collision.Calculate the change in the combined kinetic energy of the two players.
