How much work in J does the string do on the boy if the boy stands still?
<span>answer: None. The equation for work is W = force x distance. Since the boy isn't moving, the distance is zero. Anything times zero is zero </span>

<span>How much work does the string do on the boy if the boy walks a horizontal distance of 11m away from the kite? </span>
<span>answer: might be a trick question since his direction away from the kite and his velocity weren't noted. Perhaps he just set the string down and walked away 11m from the kite. If he did this, it is the same as the first one...no work was done by the sting on the boy. </span>
<span>If he did walk backwards with no velocity indicated, and held the string and it stayed at 30 deg the answer would be: </span>
<span>4.5N + (boys negative acceleration * mass) = total force1 </span>
<span>work = total force1 x 11 meters </span>

<span>How much work does the string do on the boy if the boy walks a horizontal distance of 11m toward the kite? </span>
<span>answer: same as above only reversed: </span>
<span>4.5N - (boys negative acceleration * mass) = total force2 </span>
<span>work = total force2 x 11 meters</span>
Answer:
-1.43 m/s relative to the shore
Explanation:
Total momentum must be conserved before and after the run. Since they were both stationary before, their total speed, and momentum, is 0, so is the total momentum after the run off:
where 
are the mass of the swimmer and raft, respectively. 
are the velocities of the swimmer and the raft after the run, respectively. We can solve for 
So the recoil velocity that the raft would have is -1.43 m/s after the swimmer runs off, relative to the shore
Answer:
4
Explanation:
In order for the current to continue flowing through the circuit (and for the bulbs to continue shining), there must be a closed path containing the battery where current can flow. Let's see the effect of removing each bulb on the circuit:
- 1: when removing bulb 1 only, the current can still flow through the path battery-bulb 3- bulb 4
- 2: when removing bulb 2 only, the current can still flow through the path battery-bulb 3- bulb 4
- 3: when removing bulb 3 only, the current can still flow through the path battery-bulb 1-bulb 2- bulb 4
- 4: when removing bulb 4 only, the current can no longer flow. In fact, there is no closed path that contains the battery now, so the current will not flow and all the bulbs will stop shining.
