Romeo (81.0 kg) entertains Juliet (53.0 kg) by playing his guitar from the rear of their boat at rest in still water, 2.70 m awa

y from Juliet, who is in the front of the boat. After the serenade, Juliet carefully moves to the rear of the boat (away from shore) to plant a kiss on Romeo's cheek. How far does the 79.0-kg boat move toward the shore it is facing?

Answer:

0.64 m

Explanation:

The first thing is calculate the center of mass of the system.

X_{cm}= \sum_{n=1}^{n}\frac{X_n\times M_n}{M_n}

now multiplying every coordinate x by the mass of each object (romeo, juliet and the boat) and dividing all by the total mass  taking by reference the position of juliet.

X_{cm}=\frac{53\times0 +81\times2.7+79\times1.35}{53+81+79}

X_cm = 1.4589 m

When the forces involved are internals, the center of mass don't change  

After the movement the center of mass remains in the same distance from the shore, but change relative to the rear of the boat.

X_{cm}=\frac{79\times1.35+(81+53)\times2.7}{53+81+79}

X_cm= 2.10 m

this displacement is how the boat move toward the shore.

2.10-1.46= 0.64 m

How can u tell matched forces act on objects?
mamaluj [8]

Answer:If an object's speed changes, or if it changes the direction it's moving in,

then there must be forces acting on it. There is no other way for any of

these things to happen.

Once in a while, there may be a group of forces (two or more) acting on

an object, and the group of forces may turn out to be "balanced".  When

that happens, the object's speed will remain constant, and ... if the speed

is not zero ... it will continue moving in a straight line.  In that case, it's not

possible to tell by looking at it whether there are any forces acting on it

Which statement describes steps involved in the production of hydroelectric power?
viktelen [127]

Answer:

Answer is D.......Falling water turns a turbine that helps generate electricity.

Explanation:

Hydropower plants capture the energy of falling water to generate electricity. A turbine converts the kinetic energy of falling water into mechanical energy. Then a generator converts the mechanical energy from the turbine into electrical energy.

In the graph below, why does the graph stop increasing after 30 seconds?
stepladder [879]

Answer:

The answer is "Option C".

Explanation:

It's evident from the figure below that after thirty minutes, not no more hydrogen can be created because all of the reactants have converted into products.

hydrogen gas created in cm cubes per period x = 20 seconds, y = 45 centimeters squared, and so on.

A reaction's terminus (the graph's flat line) indicates that no further products are being created during the reaction.
