Let
his and skateboard's combined mass is x
we know
F1=-F2
0.5kg*10m/s=-0.05m/s xkg
5=0.05x(minus cancel with the m/s as it represented the opposite direction of velocity and now there is no velocity in this equation.. so minus is avoidable. and the kgs cancel out)
x=10
so their combined mass is a 100 kg.. (I hope I didn't mess thing up for you)
Answer:
The correct answer is b, x = 9 cos (pi / 2 t)
Explanation:
The equation that describes a simple pendulum is
θ = θ₀ cos (wt + φ)
The angle is measured is radians
θ = x / L
We replace
d / L = x₀ / L cos (wt + φ)
x₀ = 9 in
We replace
d = 9 cos (wt + φ)
Angular velocity is related to frequency and period.
w = 2π f = 2π / T
The period is the time of a complete oscillation T = 4 s
w =2π / 4
w = π / 2
Let's replace
x = 9 cos (π/2 t + φ)
As the system is released from the root x = x₀ for t = 0 s
x₀ = x₀ cos φ
Cos φ = 1
φ = 0°
The final equation is
x = 9 cos (pi / 2 t)
The correct answer is b
Mass doesn't change, no matter where you take it.
Your first impression of ' 0 ' is totally correct.
Taking right movement to be positive means leftward movement is negative.
Hence we have a deceleration of



Using this 'suvat' equation

we can determine the initial velocity



Hence the initial velocity is 13.0 meters per seconds
It depends how large the object is. But, if it is 2 by 4, most likely the wood sieges more than the glass.
Hope this helps.
