A Moving Load on a Barge A load m = 2000 kg is on the smooth deck of a barge of mass M = 8000 kg. The load is pulled with a constant velocity of 0.1 m/s toward a winch, as shown in Figure 2.61. Initially both the barge and the load are at rest with respect to the water.
(a) Determine the speed of the barge and the load with respect to the shore.
(b) What is the position of the barge after 10 s?
(c) Is it possible to move the load and give a velocity to the barge so it moves on water with constant velocity?
