1. A boy stands on one end of a boat, and then walks to the other end. Does the boat
move? Why or why not?
Yes the Boat moves backward, since the boy and boat are standing Stationary initially the initial momentum of boat and boy is zero. When the boy moves forward to the other end of boat, the Velocity of boat must be in backward for final momentum of boy and boat to be zero.

A 30-kg child stands at one end of a floating 20-kg canoe that is 5.0-m long and initially at rest in the water. The child then slowly walks to the other end of the canoe. How far does the canoe move in the water, assuming water friction is negligible? Please show step by step and explain.

A 45.0-kg
woman stands up in a 60.0-kg
canoe 5.00
m long. She walks from a point 1.00
m from one end to a point 1.00
m from the other end (the figure (Figure 1) ).
Part A
If you ignore resistance to motion of the
canoe in the water, how far does the canoe move during this
process?
dcanoe =
m to the left
In Figure (a), a 4.4 kg dog stands on a 14 kg flatboat at a distance D = 7.3 m from the shore. He walks 1.7 m along the boat toward shore and then stops. Assuming no friction between the boat and the water, find how far the dog is then from the shore. (Hint: See Figure (b). The dog moves leftward and the boat moves rightward, but does the center of mass of the boat + dog system move?)
A 55.0 kg woman stands up in a 70.0 kg canoe of length 5.00 m . She walks from a point 1.00 m from one end to a point 1.00 m from the other end. If the resistance of the water is negligible, how far does the canoe move during this process?
A person weighing 60 kg is standing at one end of a flatboat so that he is 10 m from the shore ( see fig. below). He walks towards the other end of the boat until he arrives at the middle of the boat. He then finds out he is 1.2 m farther from the shore than before. The flatboat weighs 180 kg and one can assume there is no friction between it and the water. a) How far away...
Jack and Jill are in a boat 4 m long. The boat has mass 48 kg and its weight is uniformly distributed along its length. Jill (mass 30 kg) sits at one end and Jack (mass 45 kg) sits at the other end. The boat is in still water, not moving as children stay still. If Jack and Jill exchange their positions, by how much does the boat move? Ignore any resistance of the lake's water.
A 100kg person is sitting on the left edge of his boat in still water at 7.5m from the shore. The boat also has a 100kg mass, is 6. long, and symmetrical shape so that its center of mass is the middle where the whole weight of the boat can be assumed to be acting. a. How far to the right is the center of mass (CM) of the boat from the shore. b. How far is the CM of...
Problem 5.53 < 3 of 3 > Review Part A A boy stands out at the end of the diving board, which is supported by two Springs A and B, each having a stiffness of k = 15 kN/m. In the position shown the board is horizontal. Assume the spring A is fixed to both the ground and the board, and spring B is fixed to the ground only (Figure 1) If the boy has a mass of 40 kg,...
Question 1: A boat moves through the water with two forces acting on it. One is a 1,800-N forward push by the water on the propeller, and the other is a 1,000-N resistive force due to the water around the bow. (a) What is the acceleration of the 1,100-kg boat? m/s 2 (b) If it starts from rest, how far will the boat move in 17.5 s? m (c) What will its velocity be at the end of that time?...
A boy walks 4 km west, 2 km south, and then 1 km east.determine the total distance he walked and his net displacement. If it took him 1.2 hours to complete the walk, find his average velocity
