A boat has a mass of 4040 kg. Its engines generate a drive force of 4660 N due west, while the wind exerts a force of 880 N due

east and the water exerts a resistive force of 1400 N due east. Take west to be the positive direction. What is the boat's acceleration, with correct sign?

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the boat, m = 4040 kg

The driving force of engine, FB = 4660 N in west = + 4660 N

The force of wind, Fwi = 880 N in east = -880 N

The force of water, Fwa = 1400 N in east = -1400N

Total three forces are acting on the boat

Fnet= Fb+fwi+Fwa

Fnet= 4660 - 880 - 1400

Fnet= +2380N

Acceleration (a) = Force/mass

= 2380/4040

= 0.59m/s2

Answer: acceleration =0.59m/s2

Direction is due west

Explanation: M = 4040

F1 =4660

F2=1400

F3=880

Net force = F1-(F2 +F3)

= 4660-(1400 + 880)

=2380

Acceleration (a)= F/M

= 2380/4040

= 0.59m/s2

The amount of energy which is transported past a given area of the medium per unit of time is known as the ________ of the sound
Aliun [14]
The term that describes the amount of energy transported past a given area of the medium per unit time would be "intensity." In addition, the formula for computing intensity would be:

Intensity = Energy / (Time * Area)

It can be implied that the wave would be more intense when its energy transfer rate gets increased and vibration amplitudes also increases.

What produces the distinctive flame color of different substances when they are ignited?
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

Electrons in different metals

Explanation:

When you heat an atom, some of its electrons are "excited* to higher energy levels. When an electron drops from one level to a lower energy level, it emits a quantum of energy.  The different mix of energy differences for each atom produces different colours. Each metal gives a characteristic flame emission spectrum.
