Two people, one of mass 85 kg and the other of mass 50 kg, sit in a rowboat of mass 90 kg. With the boat initially at rest, the two people, who have been sitting at opposite ends of the boat, 3.5 m apart from each other, now exchange seats. How far does the boat move?

0.11m

Explanation:

let's assume the boat is of uniform construction

Ignoring friction losses

Also assume the origin is at the end of the boat originally with the heavier person

the center of mass of the whole system will not change relative to the water when the two swap ends

Originally, the center of mass is

85[0] + 90[3.5/2] + 50[3.5] / (85 + 90 + 50) = 1.14m from the origin

after the swap, the center of mass is

50[0] + 90[3.5/2] + 85[3.5] / (85 + 90+ 50) = 1.030m from the origin

The center of mass has shifted

1.14-1.030 = 0.11m

as no external force acted on the system, the center of mass relative to the water will not change. The boat will therefore shift towards the end where the heavier person originally sat

find the surface area of the sphere to the nearest square unit. use a calculator.
