Answer 1

Answer #1

Here ,

let the distance moved by the boat is x

as the center of mass will not change it's position

45 * (6.4 - x) - 45 * x = 0

solving for x

x = 3.2 m

distance of child from pier = 7.4 + 6.4 - 3.2

distance of child from pier = 10.6 m

the distance of child from pier is 10.6 m

2. Mass mi -10.0 kg is initially held against the spring of spring constant k-100 N/m. The spring is compressed a distance x 0.45 m. When released, m is fired towards a block of mass m2-4.4 kg initially at rest at the edge of a horizontal, frictionless table of height h-0.75 m. A ramp is placed at the end of the table. The ramp has a coefficient of kinetic friction μ.-0.25 and is a distance d-1.06 m long. The blocks...

A child pushes her friend (m = 25 kg) located at a radius r = 1.5 m on a merry-go-round (rmgr = 2.0 m, Imgr = 1000 kg*m2) with a constant force F = 90 N applied tangentially to the edge of the merry-go-round (i.e., the force is perpendicular to the radius). The merry-go-round resists spinning with a frictional force of f = 10 N acting at a radius of 1 m and a frictional torque τ = 15 N*m...
