A 60.0 kg girl stands up on a stationary floating raft and decides to go into shore. She dives off the 180 kg floating raft with

a velocity of 4.0 m/s [W]. Ignore the substantial friction real objects in water experience.
A) What is the momentum of the girl as she is diving?
B) What is the momentum of raft as the girl is diving?
C) What is the final speed of the raft just after the girl dives?

Momentum, p = m.v
m of the girl = 60.0 kg
m of the boat = 180 kg
v of the girl = 4.0 m/s

A) Momentum of the girl as she is diving:
p = m.v = 60.0 kg * 4.0 m/s = 24.0 N/s

B) momentum of the raft = - momentum of the girl = -24.0 N/s

C) speed of the raft

p = m.v ; v = p/m = 24.0N/s / 180 kg = -0.13 m/s [i.e. in the opposite direction of the girl's velocity]

What is the current when the voltage is 18 volts and the resistance is 6 ohms?
juin [17]
Voltage = current(I) * resistance (R)
V = 18
R = 6

18 = I * 6
I = 18/6 = 3 Amps or D

Answer:

Friction, normal force, and weight

Explanation:

If the book slows down, it means that there must be friction acting in the opposite direction of the direction the book is moving in.

Weight is caused by the gravitational pull of the Earth on the book, and normal force is the table pushing the book up because the book is pushing down on the table (3rd law.)

Note that weight and normal force is not the 3rd law action-reaction pair. The pair is the force of the book on the table and the force of the table on the book.
