<span>In this problem, we need to solve for Bubba’s mass. To do this, we let A be the area of the raft and set the weight of the displaced fluid with the raft alone as ρwAd1g and ρwAd2g with the person on the raft, </span>where ρw is the density of water, d1 = 7cm, and d2= 8.4 cm. Set the weight of displaced fluid equal to the weight of the floating objects to eliminate A and ρw then solve for m.
<span>ρwAd1g = Mg</span>
ρw<span>Ad2g = (M + m) g</span>
<span>d2∕d1 = (M + m)/g</span>
m = [(d2<span>∕d1)-1] M = [(8.4 cm/7.0 cm) - 1] (600 kg) =120 kg</span>
This means that Bubba’s mass is 120 kg.
Answer:
D.
Explanation:
Given that your boat departs from the bank of a river that has a swift current parallel to its banks. If you want to cross this river in the shortest amount of time, you should direct your boat: so that it drifts with the current.
If the boat moves perpendicular to the current, the current flow will be the resistance to the movement of the boat. So, it's better for the boat to drifts perpendicularly with the current.
The best answer is therefore option D.
