* After a 70-kg person steps from a boat onto the shore, the boat moves away with a speed of 0.7 m/s with respect to the shore. If the same person steps from the shore onto the boat, the person and the boat move away from the shore with the speed of 0.5 m/s. Assume that the initial speed of the person with respect to the shore is the same in both cases and that the person is moving in a horizontal direction. (a) Draw impulse-momentum bar charts for both situations and (b) determine the mass of the boat and the speed of the person.

- A student throws a heavy red ball horizontally from a balcony of a tall building with an initial speed vi. At the same time, a second student drops a lighter blue ball from the balcony. Neglecting air resistance, which statement is true? (a) The blue ball reaches the ground first. (b) The balls reach the ground at the same instant. (c) The red ball reaches the ground first. (d) Both balls hit the ground with the same speed. (e) None of statements (a) through (d) is true.arrow_forwardIn which of the following situations is the moving object appropriately modeled as a projectile? Choose all correct answers. (a) A shoe is tossed in an arbitrary direction. (b) A jet airplane crosses the sky with its engines thrusting the plane forward. (c) A rocket leaves the launch pad. (d) A rocket moves through the sky, at much less than the speed of sound, after its fuel has been used up. (e) A diver throws a stone under water.arrow_forwardIn Chapter 5, you will study a very important vector, force. Each case in Figure P3.13 shows an example of force vectors exerted on an object. These forces are all of the same magnitude F0. Assume that the forces lie in the plane of the paper. Rank the cases from greatest to smallest according to the magnitude of the total force. Note: The total force is the vector sum of the individual forces exerted on the object.arrow_forward
- A boy throws a stone horizontally from the top of a cliff of height h toward the ocean below. The stone strikes the ocean at distance d from the base of the cliff. In terms of h, d, and g, find expressions for (a) the time t at which the stone lands in the ocean, (b) the initial speed of the stone, (c) the speed of the stone immediately before it reaches the ocean, and (d) the direction of the stones velocity immediately before it reaches the ocean.arrow_forwardIn an assembly operation illustrated in Figure P3.30. a robot moves an object first straight upward and then also to the east, around an arc forming one-quarter of a circle of radius 4.80 cm that lies in an eastwest vertical plane. The robot then moves the object upward and to the north, through one-quarter of a circle of radius 3.70 cm that lies in a northsouth vertical plane. Find (a) the magnitude of the total displacement of the object and (b) the angle the total displacement makes with the vertical.

D) Find the magnitude of the vertical component of the book's velocity just before the book reaches the floor. E) Find the magnitude of the book's velocity just before the book reaches the floor. F) Find the direction of the book's velocity just before the book reaches the floor in degreesarrow_forwardProblem: During a match between Karasuno and Nekoma, Hinata hits the ball at an angle 40 degrees below the horizontal from a height of 2.75m. The ball hits the ground exactly after 0.70 seconds. Neglect air resistance. *below the Horizontal equation: Vicos(theta)=Vix=Vfx Viy=Vsin(theta) --> Y is NEGATIVE Determine: a) at what Velocity (in cm/s) did Hinata hit the ball? b) how far from the net (in meters) did the ball land if he hit it 0.30m away from the net. c) at what Velocity does the ball hit the ground. *pls answer with complete and systematic solution. -THREE decimal places all final answers -DRAW a diagram with proper labels -enclose all final answers with a box Thank you poarrow_forward
- A fire hose ejects a stream of water at an angle of 30.7° above the horizontal. The water leaves the nozzle with a speed of 26.9 m/s. Assuming that the water behaves like a projectile, how far from a building should the fire hose be located to hit the highest possible fire? Number Unitsarrow_forwardA ball weighing 0.45 kg in a 0-g environment has an initial speed of 30 m/s at an angle 0 = 35°. It hits the ground for a brief second At =0.07s and bounces away with the same speed at the same angle as shown but now it is moving upward. a) Label the initial and final velocity vectors and find their components in the x hat and y hat directions. b) Find the acceleration vector. c) Find the normal force on the ball and draw it in the diagram.
