A motorboat heads due east at 16 m/s across a river that flows due south at 9.0 m/s. a.) What is the resultant velocity of the b

oat? b.) If the river is 136 m wide, how long does it take the motorboat to reach the other side? c.) How far downstream is the boat when it reached the other side of the river?

Answer:

a)V=18.35 m/s (South -East)

b) t =7.41 m/s

c)D= 66.70 m

Explanation:

Given that

Velocity of boat in east direction = 16 m/s

Velocity of river = 9 m/s

a)The resultant velocity V

V=\sqrt{16^2+9^2}\ m/s

V=18.35 m/s (South -East)

b)

We know that

Distance = Velocity x time

Lets t time takes to cross the river

136 = 18.35 x t

t =7.41 m/s

c)

   The distance covered downstream  

We know that

Distance = Velocity x time

t= 7.41 s

D= 7.41 x 9 m

D= 66.70 m

While participating in a blood drive at school, Keona learns that blood has a density of 1.06 g/mL. She donates one pint of bloo
Sergio [31]

Answer:

m≈501.57 g

Explanation:

The density formula is:

d=m/v

Let’s rearrange the formula for m. m is being divided by v. The inverse of division is multiplication, so multiply both aides by v.

d*v= m/v*v

d*v=m

The mass can be found by multiply the density and the volume.

m=d*v

The density is 1.06 grams per milliliter and the volume is 473.176 milliliters.

d= 1.06 g/mL

v= 473.176 mL

Substitute the values into the formula.

m= 1.06 g/mL * 473.176 mL

Multiply. When multiplying, the mL will cancel out.

m= 501.56656 g

Let’s round to the nearest hundredth. The 6 in the thousandth place tells us to round the 6 to a 7 in the hundredth place.

m ≈501.57 g

The mass is about 501.57 grams.

The earth's tectonic plates are directly propelled by the convection in the __________.
frozen [14]

The missing word here is <u>Asthenosphere.</u><u> </u>

The convection in the asthenosphere directly propels the tectonic plates of the earth.


Did you know that the asthenosphere is thought to remain malleable because of heat from deep within the Earth? It is thought to be lubricating the earth's tectonic plates' undersides and enabling movement.


The older, denser portions of the lithosphere that are dragged downward in subduction zones are stored in the asthenosphere, according to the theory of plate tectonics.

The lithosphere above is stressed by convection currents, and the cracking that frequently results manifests as earthquakes.

Magma is forced upward through volcanic vents and spreading centers by convection currents produced within the asthenosphere, which also results in the formation of new crust.
