Coco is a construction worker monkey, he is not good at physics. He has been given a tile of concrete. Its width is 50 cm. The tile must fit around a corner of a building so a piece is cut out. The cut out segment is a smaller square and it has a side length of 25cm. To get a better visualization, look at the image provided. Because of the cut out segment, the center of mass of the concrete tile shifts from point A to point B. Help Coco figure out the distance between point A and B on his concrete tile. Explain your steps. 50 cm dxB A CM

O Macmillan Learning Robert has just bought a new model rocket, and is trying to measure its flight characteristics. The rocket engine package claims that it will maintain a constant thrust of 11.7 N until the engine is used up. Robert launches the rocket on a windless day, so that it travels straight up, and uses his laser range-finder to meaure that the height of the rocket when the engine cuts off is 16.8 m. He also measures the rocket's peak height, which is 21.3 m. If the rocket has a mass of 0.713 kg, how much work is done by the drag force on the rocket during its ascent? WD = J
В. Solve the following problems below. You are required to show complete solution. Put your final answer inside a box with the final unit of measurement. 1. Four squares, with equal side length 1 m, are arranged based on a rectangular coordinate as shown in the figure. The masses of A, B, C, and D are 1 kg, 2kg, 3 kg and 4kg respectively. Find the center of mass of the system of four squares with respect to thex and y axis. DI
A 48.3 kg student runs down the sidewalk andjumps with a horizontal speed of 4.34 m/sonto a stationary skateboard. The studentand skateboard move down the sidewalk witha speed of 4.07 m/s. a) Find the mass of the skateboard.Answer in units of kg. I got 3.204177 kg b) How fast would the student have to jumpto have a final speed of 5.27 m/s?Answer in units of m/s. I'm getting 5.6196 m/s, but my online homework is prompting me with an incorrect guess. My work is shown in the picture.

Santiago and Ramón are standing 20.0 m apart on the slippery surface of an icy pond. Ramón has a mass of 60.0 kg, and Santiago has a mass of 90.0 kg. Halfway between them is a jar of your favorite drink. The two of them pull on the ends of a light rope between them. When Santiago has moved 6.0 m towards the jar, how much and in what direction has Ramón moved?
