Two campers dock a canoe. One camper has a mass of 100.0 kg and moves forward at 3.0 m/s as he leaves the canoe to step onto the

dock. With what speed do the canoe and other camper move if their combined mass is 175.0 kg

Answer:

The combined speed of camper and canoe is 1.71 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of camper 1, m = 100 kg

Speed of camper 1, v = 3 m/s

The combined mass of another camper and canoe is, M = 175 kg

We need to find the combined speed of camper and canoe. According to the conservation of linear momentum, the momentum of first camper is equal to linear momentum of the canoe and the second camper.

mv=MV\\\\V=\dfrac{mv}{M}\\\\V=\dfrac{100\times 3}{175}\\\\V=1.71\ m/s

So, the combined speed of camper and canoe is 1.71 m/s.

A ball is thrown straight up in the air. For which situations are both the instantaneous velocity and the acceleration zero? (Se
Gwar [14]

Answer:

Therefore, the situation in which both the instantaneous velocity and acceleration become zero, is the situation when the ball reaches the highest point of its motion.

Explanation:

When a ball is thrown upward under the free fall action of gravity, it starts to loose its Kinetic Energy as it moves upward. As the ball moves in upward direction, its kinetic energy gradually converts into its potential energy. As a result the speed of the ball starts to decrease as it moves up. Therefore, at the highest point during its motion, the velocity of ball becomes zero and it stops at the highest point for a moment, and then it starts to fall back down, under the influence of gravitational force.

Therefore, the situation in which both the instantaneous velocity and acceleration become zero, is the situation <u>when the ball reaches the highest point of its motion.</u>
