Alicia can row 6 miles downstream in the same time it takes her to row 4 miles upstream. She rows downstream 3 miles/hour faster

than she rows upstream. Find Alicia’s rowing rate each way. Round your answers to the nearest tenth, if necessary.

Let us assume the upstream rowing rate of Alicia = x
Let us assume the downstream rowing rate of Alicia = y
We already know that
Travelling time = Distance traveled/rowing rate
Then
6/(x + 3) = 4/x
6x = 4x + 12
6x - 4x = 12
2x = 12
x = 6
Then
Rowing rate of Alicia going upstream = 6 miles per hour
Rowing rate of Alicia going downstream = 9 miles per hour.

Lc circuit consists of a 20.0 mh inductor and a 0.150 µf capacitor. if the maximum instantaneous current is 0.400 a, what is the
slavikrds [6]
The following expression is applicable:

Max. inductor energy = Max. capacitor energy

Where;
Max. inductor energy = LI^2/2, with L = 20.0 mH, I = 0.400 A
Max. capacitor energy = CV_max^2/2, C = 0.150 micro Faraday, V_max = Max. potential difference

Substituting;
LI^2/2 = CV^2/2
LI^2 = CV^2
V^2 = (LI^2)/C
V_max = Sqrt [(LI^2)/C] = Sqrt [(20*10^-3*0.4^2)/(0.15*10^-6)] = 146.06 V

A sinusoidal wave of wavelength 2.00m and amplitude 0.100 m travels on a string with a speed of 1.00 m/s to the right. At t = 0
Elanso [62]

The left end of the string is given as y = - 0.100 sin (3.14t )

<h3>How to find the sinusoidal wave</h3>

We would have to create an equation of this form

The wave function equation

y = A sin ( π*x - ω* t )

When we put in the values that we have in the equation

y = 0.100 sin ( 3.14 x - 3.14 t )

Due to the fact that it is the left end of the string, the value that we would have for x is going to be 0, hence we would have

y = 0.100 sin (3.14 * (0) - 3.14t )

Then y would be 0.100 sin (- 3.14t )

This would give us the final equation

y = - 0.100 sin (3.14t )

Hence we would have the left end of the string as y = - 0.100 sin (3.14t )
