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

2. In the activities below indicate if friction is useful or not useful? Explain your answer. i. Writing yes it is useful becaus
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

Friction is a force that opposes motion. One or two of the advantages of friction are break and ability of an object to walk.

Writing yes it is useful because when your writing because friction helps you see what your writing

ii. Rubbing. Yes, it is useful.

friction make it possible for two object to rub each other

iii. Skiing. No. It is not useful because With presence of friction, skiing will not be possible.

iv. Rotating a wheel No. It is not useful because Friction will oppose the rotation of the wheel.

Which transition represents a time when water molecules are moving closer together?
oee [108]
The best transition between the four options presented to represent a time when water molecules are moving closer together would be A. Frost forms on a window pane.

The closest distance that the water molecules can do is when the water is in the state of being solid. It is known that the solid state of matter has the closest distance from molecule to molecule that when a molecule tries to move, the others move as well creating a vibration and thus producing heat in the process. When they are in a liquid state, they are quite far from each other. In a gas state, they really are far from each. This explains the difference in their characteristics.

The bell rings and a physics student heads to class. They stop to talk to a few friends. They slow
grin007 [14]

Answer:

420m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Time  = 5minutes

Average speed  = 1.4m/s

Unknown:

Distance covered  = ?

Solution:

Speed is the rate of change of distance with time.

 Mathematically;

              Speed  = \frac{distance}{time}  

    Distance  = speed x time

 

Insert the parameters and solve;

   Convert the time to seconds;

              1 minute = 60s

               5 minute = 5  x 60 = 300s

So,

   Insert the parameters and find the distance;

     Distance  = 300 x 1.4  = 420m
