A boat takes 3.0 hours to travel 50 km down a river, then 5.4 hours to return. Determine the speed of the water in the river.
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

3.7 km/h

Explanation:

Let's call v the proper speed of the boat and v' the speed of the water in the river.

When the boat travels in the direction of the current, the speed of the boat is:

v + v'

And it covers 50 km in 3 h, so we can write

v+v' = \frac{50 km}{3 h}=16.7 km/h (1)

When the boat travels in the opposite direction, the speed of the boat is

v - v'

And it covers 50 km in 5.4 h, so

v-v'=\frac{50 km}{5.4 h}=9.3 km/h (2)

So we have a system of two equations: by solving them simultaneously, we find the value of v and v':

v+v'=16.7 \\v-v'=9.3

Subtracting the second equation from the first one we get:

(v+v')-(v-v')=16.7-9.3\\2v'=7.4\\v'=3.7

So, the speed of the water is 3.7 km/h.

How can acceleration be changed without changing speed?
katrin [286]
Since velocity is a speed and a direction, there are only two ways for you to accelerate: change your speed or change your direction—or change both. If you're not changing your speed and you're not changing your direction, then you simply cannot be accelerating—no matter how fast you're going.

What are the concepts of dynamically continuous innovation and discontinuous innovation? Can you share examples to illustrate th
KiRa [710]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Dynamically continuous innovation:

- Falls in between continuous and discontinuous innovation.

-Changes in customer habits are not as large as in discontinuous innovation and not as negligeble as in continuous innovation.

best example can as simple as transformation in  Television. New HD TVs have flat panels, wide screens and improved performance The Added features are considered dynamically improved.

Discontinuous innovation:

- discontinuous innovation comprise of new to world product only so they are discontinuous to every customer segment.

- these product are so fundamentally different from the the product that already exist that they reshape market and competition.

For example- the mobile and the internet technology are reshaping the market through regular innovation and change.

the gravitational force between the sun and earth is larger than sun and the moon. what do you think the reason for this is?
Tems11 [23]

Answer: The greater an object's mass, the more gravitational force it exerts.

Explanation: So, to begin answering your question, Earth has a greater gravitational pull than the moon simply because the Earth is more massive. Sorry if I get this wrong. I am in 5th grade! ♥
