A 1-kg mass and a 4-kg mass are connected by a (massless) rod that is 2 meters long. Where is the center of mass of the system? Group of answer choices

At the location of the 1-kg mass

Between the two masses, but closer to the 4-kg mass

At the location of the 4-kg mass

Exactly at the center of the rod

Between the two masses, but closer to the 1-kg mass

Two masses are connected by a massless string, passing over a massless, frictionless pulley as shown in the diagram. Mass m1 = 5 kg, and is released from rest at a height h = 4 m above the table. Mass m2 = 3 kg, and starts at rest on the table. Ignore friction and air resistance. Take the system to be the two masses and the earth. What is the potential energy of this system, in Joules? Next, you let...

Two astronauts, each with a mass of 57 kg, are connected by a 6.4 m massless rope. Initially they are rotating around their center of mass with an angular velocity of 1.9 rad/s. One of the astronauts then pulls on the rope shortening the distance between the two astronauts to 2.6 m. What is angular speed (in rad/s) of the system at this new separation distance between the astronauts? You may model each astronaut as a point particle.
