Answer:
Explanation:
The tidal current flows to the east at 2.0 m/s and the speed of the kayaker is 3.0 m/s.
Let Vector
is the tidal current velocity as shown in the diagram.
In order to travel straight across the harbor, the vector addition of both the velocities (i.e the resultant velocity,
must be in the north direction.
Let
is the speed of the kayaker having angle \theta measured north of east as shown in the figure.
For the resultant velocity in the north direction, the tail of the vector
and head of the vector
must lie on the north-south line.
Now, for this condition, from the triangle OAB




Hence, the kayaker must paddle in the direction of
in the north of east direction.
Answer: c. they will hit the ground at the same time
Explanation:
The volume of both objects is almost the same, so the force of friction will be the same in each one, so we can discard it.
Now, when yo drop an object, the acceleration of the object is always g = 9.8m/s^2 downwards, independent of the mass of the object.
So if you drop two objects with the same volume but different mass, because the acceleration is the same for both of them, they will hit the ground at the same time, this means that the density of the object has no impact in how much time the object needs to reach the floor.
So the correct option is c
