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?

A frog with some sort of little monster on his back is swimming in a bathtub of split tomato soup. The frog's mass is m1 = 0.0280 kg, and the monster's mass is m2 = 0.0300 kg. The frog propels the monster and himself forward with a constant force of F = 0.440 N and accelerates at a constant rate of a = 2.65 m/s^2. a) What is the resistive force of the split tomato soup on the frog? b) If the frog starts at rest at one side of the bathtub and swims across its length in t = 1.91 s, how long is the bathtub? c) How much work is done by the split tomato soup on the frog?
Pedro, not used to ice skating, got stuck in the middle of a frictionless skating rink. Good thing he is connected to Juan, who is in the bleacher, with a light string. Juan pulled Pedro with a horizontal force of 100 N. If Pedro is initially at rest and his mass is 50 kg, how fast is he moving after 3.0 s?
Let's say an astronaut is walking on the moon and wants to test out some basic kinematics. Because there's no atmosphere, there's no air resistance, so the only thing that can cause an object to move faster on the moon is the moon's gravity. Let's say you have a hammer and a feather, each weighing 10.0 kg and 1.00 kg respectively. When you drop them from a height of 1.65 meters, they should both hit the ground at the same time. The gravity on the moon is around 1/6 of what it is on Earth, so you need to figure out how long it'll take for the hammer to reach the ground.
At an instant when a soccer ball is in contact with the foot of the player kicking it, the horizontal or x component of the ball's acceleration is 700 m/s2 and the vertical or y component of its acceleration is 750 m/s2. The ball's mass is 0.32 kg. What is the magnitude of the net force acting on the soccer ball at this instant?
The block A with mass of 80 kg slides along the top of the block B with mass of 110 kg. The block A has an acceleration of 3.0 m/s2 when a horizontal force F of 700 N is applied, as in the Figure. There is no friction between the block B and a horizontal frictionless surface, but there is friction between the two blocks. Calculate the acceleration of the block A is going to B during the time that the block A remains in contact.
Mariana and Jun are both pushing on a box. Mariana pushes the box to the right and Jun pushes to the left. The box is on rollers and so is essentially frictionless with the floor, but Mariana and Jun do have friction with the floor. Jun is "winning" the pushing match and all three objects, Jun, the box, and Mariana are accelerating to the left. Consider the following forces: fm: the force of friction on Mariana f;: the force of friction on Jun FMB: the force of Mariana on the box FJB: the force of Jun on the box Which of the listed forces must be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction? Of; and FMB Mariana box Jun fm and FMB fm and fj no two of the four listed forces must be equal and opposite. FMB and FJB
It may appear at first glance that Newton's 2nd and 3rd laws are independent claims. This, however, is not true - Newton's 3rd law is simply a consequence of Newton's 2nd law. In this problem, you will prove Newton's 3rd law for the normal contact force between two objects, using only Newton's 2nd law. Consider two blocks with masses m₁ and m₂ in contact, with external forces F₁ and F2 applied, as shown in the figure. The free body diagram for each block is also given, with internal forces fa and f, as shown. F₁ F₁ fa fb ΣF = ΣF = m₁ m2 Submit F₂ Complete the equations of motion for the entire system, as well as blocks 1 and 2 individually. Note, the forces have a signed magnitude, where positive values correspond to the positive x-direction ΣF= = (m₁ + m₂) a = m₁ a = m₂ a Use the above equations to write fa in terms of only fr: fa = m₁ You have used 0 of 4 attempts m₂ F₂ Save Calculator
Three blocks A, B, and C stand next to each other as shown in the figure. A force F with magnitude 140.5 N is applied to push block C directly and sends the blocks accelerating to the right. Let's assume there is no friction between the blocks and the ground. The mass of A, B, and C are 7.7, 58.7, and 99.7 kg, respectively. What is the force applied on block B by block C F (in unit of N)? B A
Do Two skydivers are holding on to each other while falling straight down at a common terminal speed of 61.90 m/s. Suddenly, they push away from each other.

My sister Crystal of mass M1=50kg is on an ice covered sidewalk with her dog Buster, who has mass M2=38kg. They are initially distanced d=5.00m apart. By pulling on the massless leash, my sister exerts a constant force F=30.00N on Buster, Buster slides towards her. How fast is Buster moving when he and my sister meet? (The leash is not rigid, so the distance can change between them. They also end at the same point, which means even if you cannot solve for their position, you can set them equal to one another)
