The bug has the greater acceleration because it has the smaller mass

The bug has a greater change in velocity (acceleration) due to experiencing equal force as a much smaller mass.

<h3>What is Acceleration ?</h3>

The rate at which the speed and direction of a moving object vary over time. A point or object going straight ahead is accelerated when it accelerates or decelerates.

An object's velocity can alter depending on whether it moves faster or slower or in a different direction. A falling apple, the moon orbiting the earth, and a car stopped at a stop sign are a few instances of acceleration.

A stationary boat in the ocean is experiencing waves from a storm. The waves move at 59 km/h and have a wavelength of 145 m . Th

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The time elapses until the boat is first at the trough of a wave is 4.46 seconds.

Explanation:

Speed of the wave, v = 59 km/h = 16.38 m/s

Wavelength of the wave, $\lambda=145\ m$

If f is the frequency of the wave. The frequency of a wave is given by :

$v=f\lambda\\\\f=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}\\\\f=\dfrac{16.38\ m/s}{145\ m}\\\\f=0.112\ Hz$

The time period of the wave is given by :

$T=\dfrac{1}{f}\\\\T=\dfrac{1}{0.112\ Hz}\\\\T=8.92\ s$

We need to find the time elapses until the boat is first at the trough of a wave. So, the time will be half of the time period of the wave.

$T=\dfrac{8.92}{2}\\\\T=4.46\ s$

Hence, this is the required solution.

When a person steps forward out of a small boat onto a dock, the boat recoils backward in the water. why does this occur??

bixtya [17]

Here is the correct answer of the given question above. When a person steps forward out of a small boat onto a dock, the boat recoils backward in the water and this occurs because the total momentum of the system is conserved. Hope this helps.
