Answer:
(A) No
(B) Speed decreases
Explanation:
(A) since there is nothing propelling the boat and the friction between the ice and the boat and also air resistance is negligible the net force of the system in the horizontal direction is zero and hence there is no change in the horizontal momentum of the boat.
(B) Since the person had not velocity in the horizontal direction before landing on the boat but now has one after landing on the boat, the speed of the boat will decrease because the momentum has to be conserved (remember there is no change in it).
3.00 is my correct answer this is what my teacher told me.thanks
Answer:
Scientific theory is a well-supported explanation of an occurrence of a natural phenomenon. Scientific law is a description of a natural phenomenon that is always observed to occur under specific circumstances.
Explanation:
Basically, this problem asks you to convert kilocalories (kcal) to kilojoules (kJ). Both are units of energy. To convert kcal to kJ, the equivalence is: 1 kcal = 4.184 kJ. Through dimensional analysis, the solution is as follows:
750 kcal * 4.184 kJ/1 kcal = 3,138 kJ
Answer:(a) 50 N
(b)38.34 N
Explanation:
Given
Maximum tension(T) in line 50 N
(a)If line is moving up with constant velocity i.e. there is no acceleration
This will happen when Tension is equal to weight of Fish
T-mg=0
T=mg
Maximum weight in this case will be 50 N
(b)acceleration of magnitude 
T-mg=ma
m=3.91
Therefore weight is
