-244.59meters

Explanation:

The initial position of the object is located at -244.59meters from the origin.

Displacement is the distance from the start to finish of a body.

Final position of the body is at x=-55.25 meters

 Amount of displacement is -189.34meters;

let us represent this by a coordinate system in the negative x - direction;

                                                                              Origin

Start                                       finish                            0m

   -a                                             -x

                                              -55.25meters

               displacement

                -189.34meters

Position -a is about 189.34 in left direction from 55.25; this gives:   55.25 + 189.34 = -244.59m in the left direction

Deffense [45]

Answer:

m=57.65 kg

Explanation:

Given Data

Ricardo mass m₁=80 kg

Canoe mass m₂=30 kg

Canoe Length L= 3 m

Canoe moves x=40 cm

When Canoe was at rest the net total torque is zero.

Let the center of mass is at x distance from the canoe center and it will be towards the Ricardo cause. So the toque around the center of mass is given as

m_{1}(L/2-x)=m_{2}x+m_{2}(L/2-x)

We have to find m₂.To find the value of m₂ first we need figure out the value of.As they changed their positions the center of mass moved to other side by distance 2x.

so

2x=40

x=40/2

x=20 cm

Substitute in the above equation we get

m_{x}=\frac{m_{1}(L/2-x)-m_{2}x }{L/2+x}\\m_{x}=\frac{80(\frac{3}{2}-0.2 )-30*0.2}{3/2+0.2}\\m_{x}=57.65 kg

Explaining How Momentum Can Cause
Ghella [55]

Answer:

The astronaut can throw the hammer in a direction away from the space station. While he is holding the hammer, the total momentum of the astronaut and hammer is 0 kg • m/s. According to the law of conservation of momentum, the total momentum after he throws the hammer must still be 0 kg • m/s. In order for momentum to be conserved, the astronaut will have to move in the opposite direction of the hammer, which will be toward the space station.
