Problems using Newton's laws
1. Moe, Larry, and Curly push on a 752-kg boat that floats next to a dock. They
each exert an 80.5-N force parallel to the dock.
(a) What is the acceleration of the boat if they all push in the same direction?
Give both direction and magnitude.
(b) What are the magnitude and direction of the boat's acceleration if Larry
and Curly push in the opposite direction to Moe's push?
(c)If Moe, Larry, and Curly all push to the right with 85.0-N forces, and the
boat accelerates at 0.530 m/s², what is its mass?
