A boy with a mass 75kg and a girl with mass 45kg is on a boat at a speed of 10 m/s relative to the boat. Find the absolute velocity of the boy, girl and boat if a) boy jumps first b) girl jumps first c) they jump together
A boy of mass 60 kg and a girl of mass 40 kg are together and at rest on a frozen pond and push each other apart. The girl moves in a negative direction with a speed of 3 m/s. What must be the final momentum of the boy?
A girl of mass 54.0 kg jumps off the bow of a 88.0-kg canoe that is initially at rest. If her velocity is 2.70 m/s to the right, what is the speed of the canoe after she jumps
Batman (mass = 83.9 kg) jumps straight down from a bridge into a boat (mass = 470 kg) in which a criminal is fleeing. The velocity of the boat is initially +8.87 m/s. What is the velocity of the boat after Batman lands in it?
Batman (mass = 107 kg) jumps straight down from a bridge into a boat (mass = 570 kg) in which a criminal is fleeing. The velocity of the boat is initially +13 m/s. What is the velocity of the boat after Batman lands in it?
A boy with a mass of 55 kg walks into a room and sees a girl 8.0 m in front of him who has a mass of 40 kg. What is his gravitational attraction to her? A. 2.0 × 108 N B. 2.3 × 10-9 N C. 2.2 × 10-11N D. 2.4 × 10-8 N E. 2.1 × 109 N Please Show Work!
Batman (mass = 91 kg) jumps straight down from a bridge into a boat (mass 510 kg) in which a criminal is fleeing. The velocity of the boat is initially +11 m/s. What is the velocity of the boat after Batman lands in it?
Ask Your Teacher Batman (mass = 100 kg) jumps straight down from a bridge into a boat (mass = 570 kg) in which a criminal is fleeing. The velocity of the boat is initially +16 m/s. What is the velocity of the boat after Batman lands in it? m/s
A boy of mass 43.1 kg is initially on a skateboard of mass 2.00 kg, moving at a speed of 10.4 m/s. The boy falls off the skateboard, and his center of mass moves forward at a speed of 10.9 m/s. Find the final velocity of the skateboard.
A river is to be crossed by a girl using a row boat.
Assume that the water has uniform velocity, represented above by
the vector labeled H. The rowing speed of the girl and a set of
possible orientation of her boat are also shown. Select the
direction (i.e., F, or D, or ...) in order to cross the river in
the shortest time. (Notice that the number of tries is
reduced.)
For which rowing orientation will the girl land...
A 65.0-kg boy and his 40.0-kg sister, both wearing roller blades, face each other at rest. The girl pushes the boy hard, sending him backwards with velocity 2.90 m/s towards the west. Ignore friction. (a) Describe the subsequent motion of the girl. (b) How much potential energy in the girls body is converted into mechanical energy of the boy-girl system? (c) Is the momentum of the boy-girl system conserved in the pushing-apart process? If so, explain how that is possible...
