Two boats start together and race across a 68-km-wide lake and back. boat a goes across at 68 km/h and returns at 68 km/h. boat

b goes across at 34 km/h, and its crew, realizing how far behind it is getting, returns at 102 km/h. turnaround times are negligible, and the boat that completes the round trip first wins.

Boat speed is 68km/h both to and fro.
boat b speed to is 34km/h and back is 102km/h
time taken by boat to is distance/speed= 68 km/68km/h=1 hour
and fro is 68km/68km/h=1 hour
for the whole trip boat a took 2 hours
boat b speed to is 34km/h and distance is 68km, so it took 68km/34km/h = 2 hours to and fro it took 68km/102km/h=0.67 hours
for the whole trip boat b took 2.67 hours
so boat a is the winner as it took 2 hours to complete the challenge.

A net force of -1,000 Newtons is delivered to the object over a time of .02 seconds. Calculate the new velocity of the object.
MariettaO [177]
The change in velocity (v₂ - v₁) is

                <em> (-20) / (the object's mass)</em>.

Call it a crazy hunch, but I can't shake the feeling that there was more
to the question before the part you copied, that mentioned the object's
mass, and its velocity before this force came along.

Why are renewable energy resources going to be important in our future
marshall27 [118]
Renewable resources are going to be important in our future because if we use up all of our NON-renewable resources now, then we’ll still have the renewable resources to depend on.
I hope this helped! :-)

If a neutral metal comb is held near an object with a negative charge, the Como become charged by
LenKa [72]
The local charging of the comb is due to induction. The negative object's charge pushes electrons in the comb away from the side close to the charged object causing that part to be positively charged. Note that the comb's net charge is still zero provided it doesn't touch the object. When you move the comb away its electrons will redistribute.

svetoff [14.1K]
29.213 cm3


First, calculate the mass of the water used. You do this by subtracting the original mass of the flask from the combined mass of the water and flask, giving:60.735 g - 31.601 g = 29.134 g
So we now know we have 29.134 g of water. To calculate the volume of the flask, simply divide by the density of the water, giving:29.134 g / (0.9973 g/cm3) = 29.213 cm3
