How are steam powered boats different from sailboats

2 answers:

Hi there!

Steam powered boats use steam to propel and move the boat, while sailboats rely in the angle of the sail and the wind to move and turn.

Hope this helps!

Steam powered boats run from an engine, using power, gears, and cranks to function.

Sailboats use no engine and rely on winds to move and change the direction of the boat.

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

a. 41.96ft/s

b. 1.096s

Explanation:

a. v²=u²+2gs

v²=31²+2×10×40

V=41.96ft/s

b. t=(v-u) /g

t=(41.96-31)/10

t=1.096s

What happens when you compress a gas?

8090 [49]

The density increases.
When gases are compressed, their volume decreases, and the resulting pressure increases. The temperature will change if either P or V are held constant. Since the volume decreases, then density, or m/V, increases.
P×V ~ T

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

1.81 x 10^-4 m/s

Explanation:

M = 98700 kg

m = 780 kg

d = 201 m

Let the speed of second asteroid is v.

The gravitational force between the two asteroids is balanced by the centripetal force on the second asteroid.

$\frac{GMm}{d^{2}}=\frac{mv^2}{d}$

$v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{d}}$

Where, G be the universal gravitational constant.

G = 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

$v=\sqrt{\frac{6.67 \times 10^{-11}\times 98700}{201}}$

v = 1.81 x 10^-4 m/s

o-na [289]

Hello,

Average speed is total distance divided by total time. From the problem, our total distance is given as 500 kilometers and given time is 5 hours. Therefore, the average speed is:

$\displaystyle{v_\text{average}=\sum_{i=1}^n \dfrac{s_i}{t_i}}\\\\\displaystyle{v=\dfrac{500\ \text{km}}{5 \ \text{h}}}\\\\\displaystyle{v=100 \ \text{km/h}}$

Therefore, the average speed is 100 km/h. Please let me know if you have any questions!
