(20 points) You are at the center of a boat and have been rowing the boat for a long time. You weigh only 80 kg and your 120 kg

valina [46]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

Let the first weight be $m_ 1$ = 80 kg

The weight of the buddy be $m_2$ = 120 kg

The weight of Bubba be $m_3$ = 60 kg

Also, since you and Budda are a distance of 4m to each other, then the length to which both meet buddy will be:

$x_1 = x_3 = \dfrac{4}{2} \\ \\ = 2$

The length of the boat be $x_2$ = 4 m

∴

We can find the center of mass of the system by using the formula:

$X_{CM} = \dfrac{m_1x_1+m_2x_2+m_3x_3}{m_1+m_2+m_3} \\ \\ X_{CM} = \dfrac{(80 \times 2)+(120\times4)+(60\times2)}{80+120+60} \\ \\ X_{CM} = \dfrac{160+480+120}{260} \\ \\ \mathbf{X_{CM} = 2.923}$
