**19. ssm A 325-kg boat is sailing 15.0° north of east at a speed of 2.00 m/s. Thirty seconds later, it is sailing 35.0° north of east at a speed of 4.00 m/s. During this time, three forces act on the boat: a 31.0-N force directed 15.0° north of east (due to an auxiliary engine), a 23.0-N force directed 15.0° south of west (resistance due to the water), and Fw (due to the wind). Find the magnitude and direction of the force Fw. Express the direction as an angle with respect to due east.

On a horizontal air track, a glider of mass m carries a -shaped post. The post supports a small dense sphere, also of mass m, hanging just above the top of the glider on a cord of length L. The glider and sphere are initially at rest with the cord vertical. A constant horizontal force of magnitude F is applied to the glider, moving it through displacement x1; then the force is removed. During the time interval when the force is applied, the sphere moves through a displacement with horizontal component x2. (a) Find the horizontal component of the velocity of the center of mass of the glidersphere system when the force is removed. (b) After the force is removed, the glider continues to move on the track and the sphere swings back and forth, both without friction. Find an expression for the largest angle the cord makes with the vertical.
Two constant forces of magnitudes F1 and F2, act on a particle of mass 5.00 [kg] which is at rest at the origin. The force F1 points at 14.5° west of north, while the force F2, points at 58.3° west of south. Due to the two forces, the particle accelerates and is later located at 32.4 [m], 17.0° north of west with speed 12.2 [m/s]. What is F1?

A 78.0 kg person falls straight down from a 1.60 m height (measured from his feet) and lands with weight distributed equally on both feet.
