If you were in a canoe on a calm lake and you threw a heavy stone as far is you could out the canoe what would the canoe do

Physics

This is conservation of momentum. At the beginning the total momentum is zero. When you throw the stone you give the stone a positive momentum, which means you must have a negative momentum (when I say negative I mean in the opposite direction of the direction of the stone) so that the total momentum is still zero. You and the canoe will move in the opposite direction of which you threw the stone.

Answer:

0m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity of the boat = 8m/s

Final velocity  = 8m/s

Time taken  = 4s

Unknown:

Acceleration of the boat = ?

Solution:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.

It is mathematically expressed as;

        A = \frac{v - u}{t}

A is the acceleration

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken

    Insert the parameters and solve;

  A = \frac{8-8}{4}   = 0m/s²

We now have an algebraic expression with only one variable, which can be solved. Once we have that, we can plug it back into one
Len [333]

Answer:

A=1

B=-2

Explanation:

Part A and B of the question wasn't given, however, I attached the relevant parts to solve this question as follows.

From part B as attached, it shows that the right option is C which is

2A+3B=-4

Substituting B with 3A-5 then we form the second equation as shown

2A+3(3A-5)=-4

By simplifying the above equation, we obtain

2A+9A-15=-4

Re-arranging, then

11A=-4+15

Finally

11A=11

A=1

To obtain B, we already know that 3A-5 so substituting the value of A into the above then we obtain

B=3(1)-5=-2

Therefore, required values are 1 and -2
