You place a 3.0-m-long board symmetrically across a 0.5-m-wide chair to seat three physics students at a party at your house. If

60-kg Dan sits on the left end of the board and 50-kg Tahreen on the right end of the board, where should 54-kg Komila sit to keep the board stable? Ignore the mass of the board and treat each student as point-like objects The positive r-direction is to the right, and the origin is at the center of the chair
Part A Determine the coordinate of the leftmost point on the board where Komila can sit to keep the board stable
Part B Determine the coordinate of the rightmost point on the board where Komila can sit to keep the board stable

Answer:

A) for leftmost point the coordinate is -0.28m that means it should be 0.28m towards the right.

B) for rightmost case the coordinate is 0.28m which is where komila should sit.

2. A truck speeds up from a velocity of 6 m/s to 14 m/s in 4 seconds. What is the trucks acceleration? SHOW YOUR WORK
zavuch27 [327]

#2

As it is given here

initial speed is

v_i = 6 m/s

After 4 seconds the final speed is

v_f = 14 m/s

so here we can use the formula of acceleration using kinematics

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}

a = \frac{14 - 6}{4}

a = 2 m/s^2

so here it will accelerate at 2 m/s^2 rate.

#3

As it is given here

initial it starts from rest

v_i = 0 m/s

After 2.5 seconds the final speed is

v_f = 15 m/s

so here we can use the formula of acceleration using kinematics

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}

a = \frac{15 - 0}{2.5}

a = 6 m/s^2

so here it will accelerate at 6 m/s^2 rate.


#4

i think question is not correct as in first line it is saying about a bag of trash and then in next line it is asking for the position of Jumper and bridge.

If a boat and its riders have a mass of 900 kg and the boat drifts in at 1.4 m/s how much work does sam do to stop it?
Rama09 [41]
The initial kinetic energy of the boat and its rider is
K_i =  \frac{1}{2} mv_i^2 =  \frac{1}{2}(900 kg)(1.4 m/s)^2=882 J

After Sam stops it, the final kinetic energy of the boat+rider is
K_f = 0 J
because its final velocity is zero.

For the law of conservation of energy, the work done by Sam is the variation of kinetic energy of the system:
W=K_f-K_i =0-882 J=-882 J
where the negative sign is due to the fact that the force Sam is applying goes against the direction of motion of the boat.
