A 5.3 kg cat and a 2.5 kg bowl of tuna fish are at opposite ends of the 4.0-m-long seesaw. how far to the left of the pivot must

nika2105 [10]

Moment about the pivot must be equal for the seesaw to balance. Initially, the first cat and the bowl are at 2 m from the pivot.

The moment due to cat = 5.3*2 = 10.6 kg.m
The moment due to bowl = 2.5*2 = 5 kg.m
The unbalanced moment = 10.6 - 5 = 5.6 kg.m

Therefore, the 3.7 kg cat should stand at a distance x from the pivot in left to balance the 5.6 kg.m.
That is,
3.7*x = 5.6 => x = 5.6/3.7 = 1.5134 m to the left (on the side of the bowl)

a 75 kg man is standing at rest on ice while holding a 4kg ball. if the man throws the ball at a velocity of 3.50 m/s forward, w

AysviL [449]

Answer:

His resulting velocity will be 0.187 m/s backwards.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the man is, $M=75\ kg$

Mass of the ball is, $m=4\ kg$

Initial velocity of the man is, $u_m=0\ m/s(rest)$

Initial velocity of the ball is, $u_b=0\ m/s(rest)$

Final velocity of the ball is, $v_b=3.50\ m/s$

Final velocity of the man is, $v_m=?\ m/s$

In order to solve this problem, we apply law of conservation of momentum.

It states that sum of initial momentum is equal to the sum of final momentum.

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity.

Initial momentum = Initial momentum of man and ball

Initial momentum = $Mu_m+mu_b=75\times 0+4\times 0 =0\ Nm$

Final momentum = Final momentum of man and ball

Final momentum = $Mv_m+mv_b=75\times v_m+4\times 3.50 =75v_m+14$

Now, initial momentum = final momentum

$0=75v_m+14\\\\75v_m=-14\\\\v_m=\frac{-14}{75}\\\\v_m=-0.187\ m/s$

The negative sign implies backward motion of the man.

Therefore, his resulting velocity is 0.187 m/s backwards.
