A canoe lies and bobs in the water. It is 3.7 meters long and weighs 38 kg.
a) What is the volume of the canoe underwater?
b) Calculate and draw the forces acting on the canoe.
Solutions
Expert Solution
Here , buoynce force acting on
the particle will balance the weight of the body, hence using
archemedic principle, i.e. , weight of displaced water= buoynce
force, we get volume of the canoe underwater. Hence, we obtain
volume = 0.38 m^3. Also only two forces, buoynce and weight of the
object act on the canoe in opposite direction , which is equal to
380 Newton.

A 0.726-kg rope 2.00 meters long
lies on a floor. You grasp one end of the rope and begin lifting it
upward with a constant speed of 0.710 m/s.
Find the position and velocity of
the rope’s center of mass from the time you begin lifting the rope
to the time the last piece of rope lifts off the floor.
Plot your results.
(Assume the rope occupies negligible
volume directly below the point where it is being lifted.)
