Review. Figure P5.15 shows a
worker poling a boat-a very effi-
cient mode of transportation-
across a shallow lake. He pushes
parallel to the length of the light
pole, exerting a force of magnitude
240 N on the bottom of the lake.
Assume the pole lies in the verti-
cal plane containing the keel of
the boat. At one moment, the pole
makes an angle of 35.0° with the
vertical and the water exerts a hor-
izontal drag force of 47.5 N on the
boat, opposite to its forward veloc-
ity of magnitude 0.857 m/s. The
mass of the boat including its cargo and the worker is 370 kg.
(a) The water exerts a buoyant force vertically upward on the
boat. Find the magnitude of this force. (b) Model the forces as
constant over a short interval of time to find the velocity of the
Figure P5.15
boat 0.450 s after the moment described.
