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.

A hanging wire made of an alloy of titanium with diameter 0.05 cm is initially 2.7 m long. When a 15 kg mass is hung from it, th
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Young's modulus of elasticity Y = stress / strain

stress = force / cross sectional area

= weight of 15 kg / π r²

= 15 x 9.8 / 3.14 x ( .025 x 10⁻² )²

stress = 74.9 x 10⁷ N / m²

strain = Δ L / L , Δ L is change in length and L is original length

Putting the values

strain = .0168 / 2.7 =.006222

Young's modulus of elasticity Y  = 74.9 x 10⁷ / .006222

= 120.88 x 10⁹ N / m² .

Two horizontal forces are exerted on a large crate. The first force is 317 N to the right. The second force is 173 N to the left
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

A. Refer to the figure.

B. The net force acting on the crate is

F_{net} = F_1 - F_2 = 317 - 173 = 144N

C. We should first find the acceleration of the crate using the following kinematics equation:

v = v_0 + at\\6.5 = 0 + 5a\\a = 1.3 m/s^2

Mass of the crate can be found by Newton’s Second Law:

F = Ma\\M = F/a = 144/1.3 = 110.7 kg
