Let x mph be the speed of the ship in still water.
Against the current, the net speed is, (x-1.9) mph.
Time, t= distance, d/ Speed, v => 9= 113.4/(x-1.9) => 9(x-1.9) = 113.4 => x-1.9 = 113.4/9 => x = 12.6+1.9 = 14.5 mph

Moving with the current, the net speed of the ship = 14.5+1.9 =16.4 mph

Time take, t = d/v = 113.4/16.4 = 6.915 hours

What are graphs used for?
kari74 [83]

A line that joins dots plotted on a graph paper is called a line graph. It is used to show the variation of a quantity with respect to another. A line graph represents two pieces of information that are usually related.

Taking the perspective of a student learning astronomy or physics, graphs are useful because they can summarize a LOT of information into one picture. When scientists do research graphs are often the only way to represent data that has been collected.

A 36.3 kg cart has a velocity of 3 m/s. How much kinetic energy does the object have?
uysha [10]

Answer:

163.35

__________________________________________________________

<u>We are given:</u>

Mass of the object (m) = 36.3 kg

Velocity of the object (v) = 3 m/s

<u>Kinetic Energy of the object:</u>

We know that:

Kinetic Energy = 1/2(mv²)

KE = 1/2(36.3)(3)²            [replacing the variables with the given values]

KE = 18.15 * 9

KE = 163.35 Joules

Hence, the cart has a Kinetic Energy of 163.35 Joules

A ball rolls down a hill and hits a box. The momentum of the ball decreases. Which happens to the momentum? Select one of the op
Irina-Kira [14]
<span>So we want to know what happens to the momentum of the ball that rolls down hill and hits a box. So we need to use the law of conservation of momentum which states that the momentum must be conserved. It cant be transformed into inertia or mass. It can only be transferred to other object via some interactions like collisions. So it has to be a. transferred to the box and that is the correct answer. </span>
