A boat, the speed of which is 10 m.s-1 relative to the water, sails downstream at an angle of 60 degrees, with the flow of the r

iver current. The current flows at 4m.s-1. What is the resultant velocity of the boat?

Answer:

resultant velocity of boat will be 11.2249 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given speed of boat $v_b$ = 10 m /sec

Velocity pf current flow $v_c$ = 4 m /sec

Angle at which boat is moving = 60°

We have to find the resultant velocity

We know that resultant velocity is given by $v_r=\sqrt{v_b^2+v_c^2+2v_bv_rcos\Theta}=\sqrt{10^2+4^2+2\times 10\times 4cos60^{\circ}}=11.2249m/sec$

So resultant velocity of boat will be 11.2249 m/sec

A large plate carries a uniform charge density σ = 8. 85 × 10-9 c/m2. a pattern showing equipotential surfaces with a 5 v potent

vfiekz [6]

The potential difference comes out to be

$10 \times 10 {}^{ - 3} m$

Given:

σ = 8. 85 × 10-9 c/m2

we know,

$E = \frac{σ}{2ε0}$

$E = \frac{8.85 \times 10 {}^{ - 9} }{2ε0}$

$E = \frac{v}{d}$

given the potential difference between two equipotential surface=5v

E=∆v

∆d=∆v/E

$= \frac{5 \times 8.85 \times 10 { }^{ - 12} \times 2 }{8.85 \times 10 {}^{ - 9} }$

$Δ = 10 \times 10 {}^{ - 3} m$

Thus the potential difference is

$10 \times 10 {}^{ - 3} m$

Find the net force and acceleration. 15 points. Will give brainliest!

gladu [14]

Answer:

$\boxed{F_{net} = 28.7 \ N}$

$\boxed{a = 2.1 \ m/s^2}$

Explanation:

<u><em>Finding the net force:</em></u>

<u><em>Firstly , we'll find force of Friction:</em></u>

$F_{k} = (micro)_{k}mg$

Where $(micro)_{k}$ is the coefficient of friction and m = 13.6 kg

$F_{k} = (0.16)(13.6)(9.8)\\$

$F_{k} = 21.32 \ N$

<u><em>Now, Finding the net force:</em></u>

$F_{net} = F - F_{k}\\F_{net} = 50 - 21.32\\$

$F_{net} = 28.7 \ N$

<u><em>Finding Acceleration:</em></u>

$a = \frac{F_{net}}{m}$

$a = \frac{28.7}{13.6}$

$a = 2.1 \ m/s^2$

What is the work required for a penguin to push a box 2 meters with a force of 8 newtons?

choli [55]

Work done is given by product of force and displacement due to that force

So here we will have

$Work = Force \times displacement$

here we know that

$Force = 8 N$

$displacement = 2 m$

Now work done is given as

$W = 8\times 2$

$W = 16 J$

so it will do 16 J work to move the box
