a 300kg motorboat is turned off as it approaches a dock and coasts towards it at .5 m/s. Isaac, whose mass is 62 kg jumps off th
Zolol [24]

-- Before he jumps, the mass of (Isaac + boat) = (300 + 62) = 362 kg,
their speed toward the dock is 0.5 m/s, and their linear momentum is

  Momentum = (mass) x (speed) = (362kg x 0.5m/s) = <u>181 kg-m/s</u>

<u>relative to the dock</u>. So this is the frame in which we'll need to conserve
momentum after his dramatic leap.

After the jump:

-- Just as Isaac is coiling his muscles and psyching himself up for the jump,
he's still moving at 0.5 m/s toward the dock.  A split second later, he has left
the boat, and is flying through the air at a speed of 3 m/s relative to the boat.
That's 3.5 m/s relative to the dock.

    His momentum relative to the dock is (62 x 3.5) = 217 kg-m/s toward it.

But there was only 181 kg-m/s total momentum before the jump, and Isaac
took away 217 of it in the direction of the dock.  The boat must now provide
(217 - 181) = 36 kg-m/s of momentum in the opposite direction, in order to
keep the total momentum constant.

Without Isaac, the boat's mass is 300 kg, so 

                     (300 x speed) = 36 kg-m/s .

Divide each side by 300:  speed = 36/300 = <em>0.12 m/s ,</em> <u>away</u> from the dock.
=======================================

Another way to do it . . . maybe easier . . . in the frame of the boat.

In the frame of the boat, before the jump, Isaac is not moving, so
nobody and nothing has any momentum.  The total momentum of
the boat-centered frame is zero, which needs to be conserved.

Isaac jumps out at 3 m/s, giving himself (62 x 3) = 186 kg-m/s of
momentum in the direction <u>toward</u> the dock.

Since 186 kg-m/s in that direction suddenly appeared out of nowhere,
there must be 186 kg-m/s in the other direction too, in order to keep
the total momentum zero.

In the frame of measurements from the boat, the boat itself must start
moving in the direction opposite Isaac's jump, at just the right speed 
so that its momentum in that direction is 186 kg-m/s.
The mass of the boat is 300 kg so
                                                         (300 x speed) = 186

Divide each side by 300:  speed = 186/300 = <em>0.62 m/s</em>    <u>away</u> from the jump.

Is this the same answer as I got when I was in the frame of the dock ?
I'm glad you asked. It sure doesn't look like it.

The boat is moving 0.62 m/s away from the jump-off point, and away from
the dock.
To somebody standing on the dock, the whole boat, with its intrepid passenger
and its frame of reference, were initially moving toward the dock at 0.5 m/s.
Start moving backwards away from <u>that</u> at 0.62 m/s, and the person standing
on the dock sees you start to move away <u>from him</u> at 0.12 m/s, and <em><u>that's</u></em> the
same answer that I got earlier, in the frame of reference tied to the dock.

  yay !

By the way ... thanks for the 6 points.  The warm cloudy water
and crusty green bread are delicious.

I think the correct answer would be D. The tap water in the experiment is one the three test conditions of the independent variable, the type of water. The independent variable in a experiment is the one being manipulated or the one being changed. In this case, it is the type of water.

MAVERICK [17]
Protons do not move out of the nucleus of atoms although they repel each other.

Remember that protons are particles with positive charge and they held together in the nucleus of the atom which is a tiny tiny region. As you know, like charges repel each other, which means that the protons exert a repulsion force.

What changes would result in a decrease in the gravitational force between two objects? Check all that apply.
REY [17]

<em>I'm sorry, it says check all that apply, however there are no choices given. You should edit, and add the multiple choice answers.</em>

My Answer:

Well if the masses of two objects were both decreased, it would result in a decrease in the gravitational force. So I guess the two objects masses would need to be decreased.
