Two swimmers a and b, of weight 190 lb and 125 lb, respectively, are at diagonally opposite corners of a floating raft when they realize that the raft has broken away from its anchor. swimmer a immediately starts walking toward b at a speed of 2 ft/s relative to the raft. knowing that the raft weighs 300 lb, determine (a) the speed of the raft if b does not move, (b) the speed with which b must walk toward a if the raft is not to move.

Asolid cylinder is concentric with a straight pipe. the cylinder is 0.5 m long and has an outside diameter of 8 cm. the pipe has an inside diameter of 8.5 cm. the annulus between the cylinder ad the pipe contains stationary oil. the oil has a specific gravity of 0.92 and a kinematic viscosity of 5.57 x 10-4 m2/s. most nearly, what is the force needed to move the cylinder along the pipe at a constant velocity of 1 m/s?
