A 70-kg man is standing on the end of a 250-kg log that is floating in the water. Both the man and the log are at rest, and the log is 3.0 m long. If the man walks to the other end of the log, how far will the log move in the water? Ignore any forces exerted on the log by the water.

    A lumberjack (mass 98 kg) is standing at rest on one end of a floating log (mass = 290 kg) that is also at rest. The lumberjack runs to the other end of the log, attaining a velocity of +3.9 m/s relative to the shore, and then hops onto an identical floating log that is initially at rest. Neglect any friction and resistance between the logs and the water. (a) What is the velocity of the first log just before...
