O 80 g **14. Caryn's twirling baton is composed of a 200-g stainless steel rod of length 70 cm. Rub- ber caps are attached on both ends so that their centers of mass are at the ends of the rod. One rubber cap has a mass of 120 g and the other has a mass of 80 g. How far from the center of 70 cm 120 g the rod is the center of mass of the baton?

Two people on skates, one with a mass of 60 kg and the other with a mass of 40 kg, stand on ice (frictionless surface) holding a 10 m pole (negligible mass). The skaters pull themselves from the end of the pole until they meet. How far does the 40 kg skater move.
A 3 kg plank is 0.6 m in length and has its center of mass at the geometrical center. Masses of 1 kg an 3 kg are attached at opposite ends of the plank. Find the center of mass of the whole system. 1 kg 3 kg Where is the COM? 3 kg
Fred Flintstone’s club–ax is made up of two parts: an uniform 2.5 kg stick and a symmetrical 8 kg stone attached to the end of the stick. The dimensions of the club-ax are shown in the figure. How far is the center of mass from the handle end of the club-ax? Express your answer in cm.
James decides to use a ball tides to stiff rod to take out the Road Runner. He first needs to test this idea out on a small scale. A steel ball of mass 0.500 kg is fastened to a cord that is 70.0 cm long and fixed at the far end. The ball is then released when the cord is horizontal (see figure below). At the bottom of its path, the ball strikes a 2.50 kg steel block initially at rest on a frictionless surface. The collision is elastic. a) Find speed of the ball just before impact. b) Find the speed of the block just after impact. (SHOW ALL WORK, UNITS AND FORMULAS USED)
A 56.0-kg astronaut is in space, far from any objects that would exert a significant gravitational force on him. He would like to move toward his spaceship, but his jet pack is not functioning. He throws a 0.720-kg socket wrench with a velocity of 5.00 m/s in a direction away from the ship. After 0.500 s, he throws a 0.800-kg spanner in the same direction with a speed of 8.00 m/s. After another 9.90 s, he throws a mallet with a speed of 6.00 m/s in the same direction. The mallet has a mass of 1.20 kg. How fast is the astronaut moving after he throws the mallet?(assume all speeds are relative to the spaceship).
