A man is out fishing with his daughter. They are initially sitting at opposite ends of their 3.00-m canoe, which has a mass of 6

0.0 kg and is at rest in the middle of a calm lake. The man and the daughter then carefully trade places. We will neglect any resistive forces between the canoe and the water.
A)

Use these numbers: the mass of the man is 75.0 kg, and the mass of the daughter is 25.0 kg.

How far has the canoe moved, once the man and his daughter have finished trading places? _______ m

Answer:

s = 0.9375 m (to the left)

Explanation:

We have to find the center of mass in every case

Xcm initial = (75Kg*0m+25Kg*3m+60Kg*1.5m)/(75+25+60)Kg = 1.03125m

Xcm final = (25Kg*0m+75Kg*3m+60Kg*1.5m)/(75+25+60)Kg = 1.96875m

Variation: S = 1.96875m - 1.03125m = 0.9375 m

Mariana [72]
In the movement of the weight in vertical circle, using momentum balance, the largest tension is at the bottom of the circle. This is represented by: 

<span>F = T - m g </span>
<span>T = F + m g 
</span>F (centripetal) = mv^2/r
<span>= m v^2 / r + m g </span>

<span>m v^2 / r = T - m g </span>
<span>T= 0.5m * 100kgm/s^2 / 0.2kg - 9.81m/s^2 * 0.5m </span>
<span>T= 245 m^2/s^2 </span>

Two parallel metal plates are at a distance of 8.00 m apart.The electric field between the plates is uniform directed towards th
yuradex [85]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Formula E=F/C also E=V/d

In this case use the second formula; E=V/d

Data given; E=4N/C d=8m

So v=E X d

     V=4x8=32V

k.e=eV= 2X32=64eV

Margy is trying to improve her cardio endurance by performing an exercise in which she alternates walking and running 100.0 m ea
madreJ [45]
In order to answer this exercise you need to use the formulas

 S = Vo*t + (1/2)*a*t^2

Vf = Vo + at

The data will be given as

Vf = final velocity = ?

Vo = initial velocity = 1.4 m/s

a = acceleration = 0.20 m/s^2

s = displacement = 100m

And now you do the following:

100 = 1.4t + (1/2)*0.2*t^2

t = 25.388s

and

Vf = 1.4 + 0.2(25.388)

Vf = 6.5 m/s

So the answer you are looking for is 6.5 m/s

MrRa [10]

Explanation :

Takumi wears sunscreen and a hat each time he works in the yard. This is to protect himself with the strong radiation coming from the sun. UV rays that are coming from the sun are the main cause of skin cancer.

Stochastic effects are the effects that are caused by chance. Cancer is one of the main stochastic effects.

So, the correct option is (b) "the severity of stochastic effects, such as cancer".

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer: the speed at which it falls toward the Earth.


Explanation:


A bullet travelling across Earth's surface with some horizontal velocity is classical example of projectile motion.


Projectile motion is an idealization of the motion under the action of gravity neglecting the influence of the air (no drag force nor friction).


This  kind of motion is the result of two independent motions: vertical motion and horizontal motion.


The observed net velocity is the vectorial sum of the vertical and horizontal velocities.


The horizontal velocity is constant, since there is not any force acting in the horizontal axis. Thi is, the object, following the first Law of Newton (inertia law) tends to continue in uniform rectilinear movement (with zero acceleration).


The vertical velocity, this is the velocity at which the bullet falls toward the Earth, is influenced (accelerated) by the action of the gravity of the Earth. So, the vertical velocity is accelerated by the pull of the Earth.


Vertical and horizontal velocities are independent of each other, which means that the speed or the magnitude of the horizontal velocity does not affect the speed at which an object (the bullet) falls toward the Earth.
