Answer:
A. 12 m/s
Explanation:
Let’s remember that the definition of velocity is the variation of position of an object respect with to time. We know that the boy dropped the stone when the boat was 27 meters from the bridge and the stone hit the water 3 meters in front of the boat. So, the Boat must have traveled x=27 m-3m=24 m. The next step is calculating the amount of time that took the boat to make that travel; coincidentally, it is the same time that takes the stone to reach the water.
The equation that describes the motion of the stone is:
y = y_0 + v_0 * t+1/2 * a * t^2
The boy drops the stone from rest, so we can say that v_0=0. We can fixate the reference line on top of the bridge, so y_0=0 as well. The equation will be then:
-19,6 m = -1/2 * 9,8 m/s^2 * t^2
t^2= -(19,6 m)/(-4,9 m/s^2) = 4,012 s^2
t=√(4,012 s^2) = 2,003 s
Knowing the time that takes the stone to reach the water, that is the same that time that the boat uses to travel the 24 meters. The velocity of the boat is:
v = ∆x/∆t = (27 m-3 m)/(2,003 s-0s) = 11,9816 m/s ≈ 12 m/s
Have a nice day! :D
We know that
g = LcosΘ
<span>where g, L and Θ are centripetal gravity length, and angle of object
</span><span>ω² = g/LcosΘ </span>
<span>ω = √(g / LcosΘ) </span>
The weight of the meterstick is:

and this weight is applied at the center of mass of the meterstick, so at x=0.50 m, therefore at a distance

from the pivot.
The torque generated by the weight of the meterstick around the pivot is:

To keep the system in equilibrium, the mass of 0.50 kg must generate an equal torque with opposite direction of rotation, so it must be located at a distance d2 somewhere between x=0 and x=0.40 m. The magnitude of the torque should be the same, 0.20 Nm, and so we have:

from which we find the value of d2:

So, the mass should be put at x=-0.04 m from the pivot, therefore at the x=36 cm mark.
The gravitational potential energy of the brick is 25.6 J
Explanation:
The gravitational potential energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its position in a gravitational field.
Near the surface of a planet, the gravitational potential energy is given by

where
m is the mass of the object
g is the strength of the gravitational field
h is the height of the object relative to the ground
For the brick in this problem, we have:
m = 8 kg is its mass
g = 1.6 N/kg is the strenght of the gravitational field on the moon
h = 2 m is the height above the ground
Substituting, we find:
