A man is standing on a board on a frozen lake where there is no friction between the board and the ice surface. Tha man's mass is 2 m and the boaf's mass is 4 m. The board has length L. He walks from 1/5 Lfrom the left end of the board to 1/5 L from the right end of the board. How far and in which direction does the board move during this process?

The weight of the cylindrical tank is negligible in comparison to the weight of water it contains (water weighs 62.4lb/ft3). The coefficient of static friction between the tank and the horizontal surface is s. (a) Assuming a full tank, find the smallest force P required to tip the tank, and the smallest s that would allow tipping to take place. (b) If the force P = 200 lb initiates tipping, determine the depth of water in the tank.
Let us say that we have a ladder with its own length (L) and its own mass (m) this ladder just so happens to make a (θ) degree angle with a wall. The center of mass of this ladder is 1/3 of the way up from the bottom (it gets narrower towards the top). A person of mass M then decides to climb the ladder until he comes to the halfway point. Wall has no friction but the ground has on the ladder.. a) Draw this situation and label forces so you may set up the statics equations. b) Find the force on the ladder due to the ground (both x and y components) and the force on the ladder due to the wall.

A person wearing long snowshoes can walk across a blanket of freshly fallen snow without sinking far into the snow because (p.s. Google snowshoe if you don't know how one looks like) snowshoes cover a larger area than a foot and so the pressure is reduced. the snowshoes reduce the force of the person on the snow. the large area of the snowshoe concentrates the force of the person to a point smaller than the foot. snowshoes push less dense snow out of the way so the person stands on more solid ice below
Find the work done in pumping gasoline that weighs 42 pounds per cubic foot.

(Round your answer to the nearest integer.) X ft-lb
If the mass of the hanging-mass is increased and the mass of the cart remains the same, how would the steepness of the position versus t2 be affected? The best-fit line would decrease in steepness.The best-fit line would increase in steepness. Impossible to determine because the net force is not a part of the position vs t2 graph.There would be no change in steepness.
