Answer:
The false statement is in option 'd': The center of mass of an object must lie within the object.
Explanation:
Center of mass is a theoretical point in a system of particles where the whole mass of the system is assumed to be concentrated.
Mathematically the position vector of center of mass is defined as
where,
is the position vector of the mass dm.
As we can see for homogenous symmetrical objects such as a sphere,cube,disc the center of mass is located at the centroid of the shapes itself but in many shapes it is located outside the body also.
Examples of shapes in which center of mass is located outside the body:
1) Horseshoe shaped body.
2) A thin ring.
In many cases we can make shapes of bodies whose center of mass lies outside the body.
Among the options, the two astronomers who supported the Earth-centered system were Tycho Brahe and Ptolemy.
Both astronomers developed in fact a system where the Sun was located at the center, while the Earth and the other planets were orbiting around the Sun.
There are two force acting on an object that is being lifted. (1) the weight of the car, (2) the upward force. The difference of these force should be equal to the product of the mass and the acceleration. (This is the content of Newton's 2nd Law of Motion). If we let the lifting force be F,
F - (830)(9.8) = (830)(3.8)
The value of F from the equation is 11288 N.

Answer:
a. Acceleration, a = 1.88 m/s²
b. Time, t = 7.87 seconds.
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Initial velocity, U = 14.5m/s
Final velocity, V = 29.3m/s
Distance, S = 172m
a. To find the acceleration of the speedboat;
We would use the third equation of motion;
V² = U² + 2aS
Substituting into the formula
29.3² = 14.5² + 2a*172
858.49 = 210.25 + 344a
344a = 858.49 - 210.25
344a = 648.24
a = 648.24/344
Acceleration, a = 1.88 m/s²
b. To find the time;
We would use the first equation of motion;
V = U + at
29.3 = 14.5 + 1.88t
1.88t = 29.3 - 14.5
1.88t = 14.8
Time, t = 14.8/1.88
Time, t = 7.87 seconds.
