<span>A = area of styrofoam
M = mass of stryofoam = A*h*rho_s
m = mass of swimmer
Total mass = m + M = m + A*h*rho_s
Downward force = g*(total mass) = g*[m + A*h*rho_s]
The slab is completely submerged.
Buoyant force = g*(mass of water displaced) = g*[A*h*rho_w]
Equate these
g*[m + A*h*rho_s] = g*[A*h*rho_w]
m + A*h*rho_s = A*h*rho_w
A*h*[rho_w - rho_s] = m
A = m/[h*(rho_w - rho_s)]</span>
By definition, the kinetic energy is given by:
K = (1/2) * m * v ^ 2
where
m = mass
v = speed
We must then find the speed of both objects:
blue puck
v = root ((0) ^ 2 + (- 3) ^ 2) = 3
gold puck
v = root ((12) ^ 2 + (- 5) ^ 2) = 13
Then, the kinetic energy of the system will be:
K = (1/2) * m1 * v1 ^ 2 + (1/2) * m2 * v2 ^ 2
K = (1/2) * (4) * (3 ^ 2) + (1/2) * (6) * (13 ^ 2)
K = <span>

Answer:
the center of mass is 7.07 cm apart from the bend
Explanation:
the centre of mass of a wire of length L is L/2 ( assuming uniform density). Then initially the x coordinate of the centre of mass is
x₁ = L/2 = 20 cm /2 = 10 cm
when the wire is bent in a right angle the coordinates of the new centre of mass will be
x₂ = L₂/2
y₂= L₂/2
where L₂ is the length of the horizontal piece and vertical piece . Then L₂=L/2
x₂ = L₂/2 = L/4 = 20 cm/4 = 5 cm
y₂= L₂/2 = L/4 = 20 cm/4 = 5 cm
x₂=y₂=X
locating the bend in the origin (0,0) the distance to the centre of mass is
d = √(x₂²+y₂²) = √(2X²) = √2*X=√2*5cm = 7.07 cm
d = 7.07 cm
