Answer:Use relative position.

Explanation:

An object is moving if its position

relative to a fixed point is changing.

Remember, a book on a desk does not seem to be moving, but if you put it relative to the sun, it is moving at 30 km per second. Look for relativity in motion.

A loaded barge has a mass of 1 500 000 kg and is traveling at 3 m/s. If a tugboat applies an opposing force of 12 000 N for 10 s
yan [13]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial momentum is 1.5e6(3) = 4.5e6 kg•m/s

An impulse results in a change of momentum

The tug applied impulse is 12000(10) = 120000 N•s or 0.12e6 kg•m/s

The remaining momentum is 4.5e6 - 0.12e6 =  4.38e6 kg•m/s

The barge velocity is now 4.38e6 / 1.5e6 = 2.92 m/s

The tug applies 0.012e6 N•s of impulse each second.

The initial barge momentum will be zero in

t = 4.5e6 / 0.012e6 = 375 s or 6 minutes and 15 seconds

To stop the barge in one minute(60 s), the tug would have to apply

4.5e6 / 60 = 75000 N•s /s or 75 000 N
