Two friends Colby [mass mC = 34 kg] and Charlie [mass mCh = 42 kg] are avid swimmers. Colby is a master swimmer, while Charlie only swims recreationally. They both start on one side of pool (x = 0) at the same time (t = 0). The pool is separated into lanes along the “long course” so that the other end is at x = 50 m. Colby swims 2,500 m in 55 minutes; we assume that Colby and Charlie swim at constant speeds. a) Colby and Charlie “meet” for the second time when they are at x = 11 m after Colby makes two turns and Charlie makes only one turn. When [i.e., at what time] do Colby and Charlie meet?

b) Sketch the position vs. time graph for Colby and Charlie until they “meet” the second time.

c) How fast does Charlie swim?

d) Where do Colby and Charlie meet for the first time?

e) How long does Colby have to wait until Charlie finishes the total distance 2,500 m?

After the 2,500-m swim, Charlie [mass mCh = 42 kg] wants to impress Colby [mC = 34 kg] and jumps off the 10-m platform. Charlie jumps upwards and reaches the maximum height of 2.5-m above the platform before turning around and falling towards the water. We only consider the motion along the vertical. a) Find the velocity [vector] of Charlie as he jumps off the spring board b) Find the velocity [vector!] of Charlie as he hits the water surface....

Two friends, Al and Jo, have a combined mass of 166 kg. At the ice skating rink, they stand close together on skates, at rest and facing each other. Using their arms, they push on each other for 1 second and move off in opposite directions. Al moves off with a speed of 5.9 m/sec in one direction and Jo moves off with a speed of 9.7 m/sec in the other. You can assume friction is negligible. 1)What is Al's...

Two children, A (mass 25 kg ) and B (mass 50 kg ), are playing on a merry-go-round (which you can assume is a solid disk with mass 225 kg and radius 1.5m). Assume that any friction on the axle of the merry-go-round is negligible. (A) A starts spinning the merry-go-round, giving it an angular velocity of 7 rad/s, then she stops pushing it. B runs with a speed of 6 m/s directly toward the center of the merry-go-round....

Two ice skaters, Daniel (mass = 65.0 kg) and Rebecca (mass = 45.0 kg) are practicing on the ice. Daniel stops to tie his lace, and while at rest he is struck by Rebecca, who is moving 12.0 m/s before she collides with him. After the collision, Rebecca is moving forward at 8.50 m/s at a 53 degree angle with respect to her initial direction. What is the velocity vector (magnitude and direction, or x- and y-components) of Daniel after...
