A(n) 86 kg fisherman jumps from a dock
into a 130 kg rowboat at rest on the West side
of the dock.
If the velocity of the fisherman is 3.2 m/s
to the West as he leaves the dock, what is the
final velocity of the fisherman and the boat?
Answer in units of m/s.

Expert Solution

Introduction:

We are given mass of fisherman. We are also given its initial velocity before getting into boat. We are also given mass of boat. We have to find their combined final velocity. We use momentum conservation to find final velocity of system.

A moving cart of mass 3.5 kg crashes into a stationary cart of mass 10.5 kg as shown. The carts are prevented from touching one another during the collision by a pair of neodymium magnets mounted on the ends of the carts and positioned for repulsion. After separating, the more massive cart moves to the right at 1.4 m/s. What are the final speed and direction of motion of the less massive cart? strong magnets Vfi VGi = 0 3.5 kg 10.5 kg Frictionless surface

A 3.90-kg steel ball strikes a wall with a speed of 9.0 m/s at an angle of 0= 60.0° with the surface. It bounces off with the same speed and angle (see figure below). If the ball is in contact with the wall for 0.200 s, what is the average force exerted by the wall on the ball? (Assume right and up are the positive directions.) F₁ = N F₂ Submit Answer Ⓡ a delete
A Z Olaf is standing on a sheet of ice that covers the football stadium parking lot in Buffalo, New York; there is negligible friction between his feet and the ice.

A block of mass m1 = 11.5 kg slides along a horizontal surface (with friction, μk = 0.21) a distance d = 2.15 m before striking a second block of mass m2 = 8.25 kg. The first block has an initial velocity of v = 8.25 m/s. 1. Assuming that block one stops after it collides with block two, what is block two's velocity after impact in m/s? 2. How far does block two travel, d2 in meters, before coming to rest after the collision?
