The woman A, the captain B, and the sailor C weigh 120, 180, and 160 lb, respectively, and are sitting in the 300-lb skiff which is gliding through the water with a speed of 1 knot. If the three people change their positions as shown in the second figure, find the distance x from the skiff to the position where it would have been if the people had not moved. Neglect any resistance to motion afforded by the water. Does the sequence or timing of the change in positions affect the final result?
