Answer:

Same as before.

Explanation:

we can use momentum conservation to solve the problem.

Let mass of child be m and of the sled be M. Also let both have initial velocity u.

since, child fells off on the sled it will still have same velocity of ''u''.

By momentum conservation we have,

(M + m) x u = m x u + M x v

⇒ Mu=Mv

⇒ u=v

Hence, velocity of the sled remains the same.
