Ric, mass 117.3 kg, and Sharon, who is lighter, are enjoying Lake Snowden at dusk in a 45.0 kg-canoe. When the canoe is at rest

in the placid water, they exchange seats, which are 3.0 m apart and symmetrically located with respect to the canoe's center. Ric notices that the canoe moved 31.1 cm relative to a submerged log during the exchange and calculates Sharon's mass, which she has not told him. What is it?

Answer:

91.0468Kg

Explanation:

We need to find the Torque given in the center of the canoe, so.

We have,

M_r = 117.3kg\\M_c = 45kg\\M_s = ?\\x=3m\\\Delta x = 0.214m

(m_R+m_c+m_s)(\Delta x)(g) = (m_r-m_s)(g)(x)

Substituting,

(117.2Kg+45Kg+m_s)(0.311)(9.8) = (117.3-m_s)(3)(9.8)

(117.2Kg+45Kg+m_s)(0.311) = (117.3-m_s)(3)

m_s = 91.0468Kg

Carts A and B are identical and are moving toward each other on a track. The speed of cart A is v, while the speed of cart B is
borishaifa [10]

Answer: k= \frac{5mv^{2} }{2}

Explanation:

Recall that the formula for kinetic energy is given below as

k = \frac{mv^{2} }{2}

where k=kinetic energy (joules), m= mass of object (kg), v= velocity of object m/s)

For cart A

m_{a} = mass of cart A

v_{a} = v = velocity of cart A

K.E_{a} = kinetic energy of cart A

hence, K.E_{a} = \frac{m_{a}v^{2}  }{2}

For cart B

m_{b} = mass of cart B

v_{b} = 2v = velocity of cart B

K.E_{b} = kinetic energy of cart B

hence, K.E_{b} = \frac{m_{b}(2v^{2}) }{2} = 2m_{b} v^{2}

from the question, both cart are identical which implies they have the same mass i.e m_{a} = m_{b} = m which implies that

K.E_{a}= \frac{mv^{2} }{2} and K.E_{b}  =2mv^{2}

The total kinetic energy K is the sum of cart A and cart B kinetic energy

K=K.E_{a} + K.E_{b}

K=\frac{mv^{2} }{2} + 2mv^{2}

hence

K=\frac{5mv^{2} }{2}

A 150 g particle at x = 0 is moving at 8.00 m/s in the +x-direction. As it moves, it experiences a force given by Fx=(0.850N)sin
krok68 [10]

Answer:

9.98 m/s

Explanation:

The force acting on the particle is defined by the equation:

F=(0.850) sin (\frac{x}{2.00}) [N]

where x is the position in metres.

The acceleration can be found by using Newton's second law:

a=\frac{F}{m}

where

m = 150 g = 0.150 kg is the mass of the particle. Substituting into the equation,

a=\frac{0.850}{0.150}sin (\frac{x}{2.00})=5.67 sin(\frac{x}{2.00}) [m/s^2]

When x = 3.14 m, the acceleration is:

a=5.67 sin(\frac{3.14}{2.00})=5.67 m/s^2

Now we can find the final speed of the particle by using the suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2ax

where

u = 8.00 m/s is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

a=5.67 m/s^2

x = 3.14 m is the displacement

Solving for v,

v=\sqrt{u^2+2ax}=\sqrt{8.00^2+2(5.67)(3.14)}=9.98 m/s

And the speed is just the magnitude of the velocity, so 9.98 m/s.

White raven [17]

Answer:

Normal Conversation: i=106i0

i(dB)=60

Power saw a 3 feet: i=1011i0

i(dB)=110

Jet engine at 100 feet: i=1018i0

i(dB)=180

Andy is waiting at the signal. As soon as the light turns green, he accelerates his car at a uniform rate of 8.00 meters/second2
Tatiana [17]
You can reason it out like this:

-- The car starts from rest, and goes 8 m/s faster every second.

-- After 30 seconds, it's going (30 x 8) = 240 m/s.

-- Its average speed during that 30 sec is  (1/2) (0 + 240) = 120 m/s

-- Distance covered in 30 sec at an average speed of 120 m/s

                                                                           =  3,600 meters .
___________________________________

The formula that has all of this in it is the formula for
distance covered when accelerating from rest:

       Distance = (1/2) · (acceleration) · (time)²

                       = (1/2) ·      (8 m/s²)     · (30 sec)²

                       =      (4 m/s²)          ·      (900 sec²)

                       =            3600 meters.

_________________________________

When you translate these numbers into units for which
we have an intuitive feeling, you find that this problem is
quite bogus, but entertaining nonetheless.

When the light turns green, Andy mashes the pedal to the metal
and covers almost 2.25 miles in 30 seconds.

How does he do that ?

By accelerating at 8 m/s².  That's about 0.82 G  !

He does zero to 60 mph in 3.4 seconds, and at the end
of the 30 seconds, he's moving at 534 mph ! 

He doesn't need to worry about getting a speeding ticket.
Police cars and helicopters can't go that fast, and his local
police department doesn't have a jet fighter plane to chase
cars with.
