Two boys in a canoe toss a baseball back and forth. What effect will this have on the canoe? Neglect (velocity-dependent) frictional forces with water or air.
 a. None, because the ball remains in the canoe. b. The canoe will drift in the direction of the boy who throws the ball harder each time. c. The canoe will drift in the direction of the boy who throws the ball with less force each time. d. The canoe will oscillate back and forth always moving opposite to the ball.
  e. The canoe will oscillate in the direction of the ball because the canoe and ball exert forces in opposite directions upon the person throwing the ball.

Question 2

 a. less than v1.
  b. equal to v1.
  c. equal to the average of v1 and v2.
  d. greater than v1 and less than v2.
  e. greater than v2.
