The distance that the canoe moves in this process is 1.29 meters.

We first have to find the center of mass

X = \frac{MsXs+McXc}{Mw+Mc} \\\\

Where

Ms = Woman's mass = 45

Mc = Canoe's mass = 60kg

Xs = position from left= 1 cm

Xc = position from left end of canoe's mass = 2.5cm

When we put these values into the equation we have:

X=\frac{45*1+60*2.5}{45+60} \\\\= 1.857\\

The center of gravity lies at the center of this boat. Therefore,

Xc = \frac{L}{2} \\\\L = 5 m long\\\\\frac{5}{2} =2.5

5.00 - 1. 00 = 4 meters

\frac{45*4+60*2.5}{45+60} = 3.14meters\\\\

To get the distance that is moved by this canoe

distance = 3.143-1.857

= 1.286

≈ 1.29 meters

The distance that the canoe moves in this process is 1.29 meters.

A rocket is fired at 100 m/s at an angle of 37, what was its speed at the top of its path?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

0m/s

Explanation:

Since its fired at an angle, at the top there will be a split second where the velocity will be 0, as it has a parabolic shape, so the speed at the top of its path is 0

Suppose that you make a series RC circuit with a capacitor and a known resistor that has a 5% tolerance: R= 5.20 ± 0.26kΩ. You p
Masja [62]

Answer:

correct answer is C

Explanation:

The time constant of an RC circuit is

           τ = RC

so to find the capacitance

          C = τ/ R

          C = 2.150 / 5.20 10³

          C = 4.13 10⁻⁴ F

to find the error we use the worst case

         ΔC = | |\frac{dC}{d \tau }| \ \Delta  \tau + | \frac{dC}{dR} | \ \Delta R

the absolute value guarantees that we find the worst case, we evaluate the derivatives

          ΔC = 1 /R Δτ + τ/R²  ΔR

the absolute values ​​of the errors are

          Δτ = 0.002 s

          ΔR = 0.3 kΩ

we substitute

           ΔC = 0.002 /5.20 10³ + 2.150/(5.20 10³)²   0.3 10³

           ΔC = 3.8 10⁻⁷ + 1.74 10⁻⁵

           ΔC = 1.77 10⁻⁵ F

the uncertainty or error must be expressed with a significant figure

            ΔC = 2 10⁻⁵ F

the percentage error is

            Er% =\frac{\Delta C}{C} \ 100

            Er% = \frac{2 \ 10^{-5} }{ 4.13 \ 10^{-4} } \ 100

            Er% = 4.8%

the correct answer is C
