False

Which of the following statements are true? (a) An object can move even when no force acts on it.True (b) If an object isn't moving, no external forces act on it.False (c) If a single force acts on an object, the object accelerates.True (d) If an object accelerates, a force is acting on it.True (e) If an object isn't accelerating, no external force is acting on it.False (f) If the net force acting on an object is in the positive x-direction, the object moves only in the positive x-direction.False

True, false, true, true, true, false, false

The figure below shows a fisherman in a canoe on a lake. The fisherman's mass is 78 kg, and the canoe's is 120 kg. The fisherman and canoe are initially at rest when the fisherman throws a package of mass m = 15 kg horizontally to the right with a speed of vi = 4.6 m/s. What is the velocity of the canoe after the package is thrown? Neglect any resistance force from the water. (Give the magnitude in m/s, and select the correct direction from the options given.)

magnitude .348 m/s, direction toward the left
