Can someone help because I am very confused

(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:

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

A tennis ball with a velocity of +10.0 m/s to the right is thrown perpendicularly at a wall. After striking the wall, the ball r

netineya [11]

Answer:

-1500 m/s2

Explanation:

So the ball velocity changes from 10m/s into the wall to -8m/s in a totally opposite direction within a time span of 0.012s. Then we can calculate the average acceleration of the ball as the change in velocity over a unit of time.

$a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \frac{-8 - 10}{0.012} = \frac{-18}{0.012} = -1500 m/s^2$

A 26 kg body is moving through space in the positive direction of an x axis with a speed of 350 m/s when, due to an internal exp

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

a.) 1567.2 m/s

b.) 149.4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that a 26 kg body is moving through space in the positive direction of an x axis with a speed of 350 m/s when, due to an internal explosion, it breaks into three parts. One part, with a mass of 7.8 kg, moves away from the point of explosion with a speed of 180 m/s in the positive y direction. A second part, with a mass of 8.8 kg, moves in the negative x direction with a speed of 640 m/s.

The x-component of the third part can be calculated by assuming that it moves in a positive x axis.

The third mass = 26 - ( 7.8 + 8.8)

The third mass = 26 - 16.6

The third mass = 9.4kg

since momentum is conserved, the momentum before explosion will be equal to sum of the momentum after explosion

26 x 350 = -8.8 x 640 + 9.4V

9100 = -5632 + 9.4V

9.4V = 9100 + 5632

9.4V = 14732

V = 14732/9.4

V = 1567.2 m/s

(b) y-component of the velocity of the third part will be

7.8 x 180 = 9.4 V

1404 = 9.4V

V = 1404/9.4

V = 149.4 m/s

After a great many contacts with the charged ball, how is the charge on the rod arranged (when the charged ball is far away)?

faust18 [17]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Since, there is a negative charge present on the ball and a positive charge present on the rod. So, when the negatively charged metal ball will come in contact with the rod then positive charges from rod get conducted towards the metal ball.

Hence, the rod gets neutralized. But towards the metal ball there is a continuous supply of negative charges. Therefore, after the neutralization of positive charge from the rod there will be flow of negative charges from the metal ball towards the rod.

Thus, we can conclude that negative charge spread evenly on both ends.
