![On this page, we will explore the motion of two particles in the x-y plane. The detailed analysis below will guide you through calculating various important physical quantities for the system.
**Problem Statement:**
Two particles are moving in the x-y plane.
- Particle #1 has a mass \( m_1 = 6.40 \, \text{kg} \) and is located (at any given time) by the position vector \( \vec{r}_1(t) = [0.300 \, \text{m} + (2.00 \, \text{m/s}^3)t^3]\hat{i} + 0.200 \, \text{m}\hat{j} \).
- Particle #2 has a mass \( m_2 = 9.00 \, \text{kg} \) and is located (similarly, at any given time) by the position vector \( \vec{r}_2(t) = 0.100 \, \text{m}\hat{i} + [0.300 \, \text{m} + (0.500 \, \text{m/s})t + (1.50 \, \text{m/s}^2)t^2]\hat{j} \).
Determine the following at the time \(t = 1.00 \, s\). (Express your answers in vector form.)
### Part (a) Location of the center of mass
\[ \vec{r}_{cm}(t = 1.00 \, s) = \underline{\hspace{2cm}} \, \text{m} \]
### Part (b) Velocity of the center of mass
\[ \vec{V}_{cm}(t = 1.00 \, s) = \underline{\hspace{2cm}} \, \text{m/s} \]
### Part (c) Acceleration of the center of mass
\[ \vec{a}_{cm}(t = 1.00 \, s) = \underline{\hspace{2cm}} \, \text{m/s}^2 \]

- Problem 2: An object of mass M is hanging from a spring (with I_o =0 and a spring constant k). There is a constant force from the wind, F_wind, blowing to the right, so the mass is initially at rest, but hanging at an angle Theta from the vertical because of the presence of the wind. Suddenly, spring breaks, and the mass drops under the influence of F_wind (note F_air and F_wind are the same constant vector!) and its weight. If the object (in equilibrium before the spring breaks) is a height H above the ground, how far laterally (in the direction of the wind) does the object hit the ground, L (given theta, k, M, g, H)?arrow_forwardAn unfortunate astronaut loses his grip during a spacewalk and finds himself floating away from the space station, carrying only a rope and a bag of tools. First he tries to throw a rope to his fellow astronaut, but the rope is too short. In a last ditch effort, the astronaut throws his bag of tools in the direction of his motion, away from the space station. The astronaut has a mass of ma = 102 kg and the bag of tools has a mass of mp = 19.0 kg. If the astronaut is moving away from the space station at Vj = 2.10 m/s initially, what is the minimum final speed vp.f of the bag of tools with respect to the space station that will keep the astronaut from drifting away forever?
