. a boat can travel in still water. (a) if the boat points directly across a stream whose current is what is the velocity (magni

tude and direction) of the boat relative to the shore? (b) what will be the position of the boat, relative to its point of origin, after 3.00 s?

a) The velocity of the boat relative to the shore is 3.40 m/s and b) The position of the boat relative to its point of origin after 3s is 10.20m.

Here it is given that the speed of the boat (x) = 2.20m/s

The speed of the stream current (y) = 1.20m/s

a) We have to find the velocity of the boat relative to the shore.

The speed of the boat = x + y

                                    = 2.20 + 1.20

                                    = 3.40m/s

b) Now we have to find the position of the boat after 3s

The formula for speed:

Speed = Distance/ Time

distance = speed × time

speed = 3.40m/s

Time = 3s

distance = 3.40 × 3

              = 10.20 m

Therefore we get a) speed as 3.40m/s and b) distance as 10.20m.

timama [110]

Answer:

Diathermy and atmospheric pressure

Explanation:

When the energy from the Sun comes to the Earth, it hits first the atmosphere, but the air contained is almost unaffected by it because the molecules are not tight enough to absorb its incoming energy.

Later on, the sunlight reaches the soil, thus absorbing part of the energy and reflecting the rest. Because of this reflection, the air near to the ground begins to heat through convection and as it gains height the air pressure (thus the air molecules begin to separate more from each other) decreases and the energy transfer to them is more difficult. As a result, as you gain height, the air temperature decreases at a rate of 6.8 ºC every 1,000 meters.

29. What is the average velocity of an object that moves
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Average Velocity = - 1.22 cm/s = - 0.0122 m/s

Explanation:

The average velocity of an object is defined as the ratio of the total distance traveled by the object to the total time taken by the object to cover the distance. Therefore, the average velocity of an object can be found by the following formula:

Average Velocity = Total Distance Covered/Total Time Taken

Average Velocity = (Final Position - Initial Position)/Total Time Taken

Average Velocity = (3.7 cm - 6.5 cm)/(2.3 s)

Average Velocity = (- 2.8 cm)/(2.3 s)

<u>Average Velocity = - 1.22 cm/s = - 0.0122 m/s</u>

here, the negative sign indicates the direction of the velocity or the movement of the object is leftwards or towards the origin approaching from right.

mylen [45]

The total work done is equal to 134 J.

<h3>Work</h3>

The work formula is characterized as the multiplication of the force performed and the distance in which the movement was performed, so that:

                                           W = F \times d

Thus, it is enough to calculate the value of the work in each movement and add to find the total work, so that:

                                          W_1 = 3 \times 28 = 84J\\W_2= 4 \times 14 = 56J\\W_3 = (-1.2) \times 5 = 6J

                                        84 + 56 + (-6) = 134J

So, the total work done is equal to 134 J.
