It is correct, the action is paddling, where you move the water backwards, and the reaction is the boat moving forwards.

How much power will be required to force a current of 4.13 amps to flow through a conductor whose resistance is 113 ohms? Use tw
-Dominant- [34]

The power required to force the current of 4.13 A to flow through the conductor is 1927.43 watts

<h3>What is power? </h3>

This is defined as the rate in which energy is consumed. Electrical power is expressed mathematically as:

Power (P) = square current (I²)× resistancet (R)

P = I²R

<h3>How to determine the power</h3>
  • Current (I) = 4.13 A
  • Resistance (R) = 113 ohms
  • Power (P) =?

P = I²R

P = 4.13² × 113

P = 1927.43 watts

Thus, the power required is 1927.43 watts

Parallel light rays with a wavelength of 563 nm fall on a single slit. On a screen 3.30 m away, the distance between the first d
MrMuchimi

Answer:

The width of the slit is 0.4 mm (0.00040 m).

Explanation:

From the Young's interference expression, we have;

(λ ÷ d) = (Δy ÷ D)

where λ is the wavelength of the light, D is the distance of the slit to the screen, d is the width of slit and Δy is the fringe separation.

Thus,

d = (Dλ) ÷ Δy

D = 3.30 m, Δy = 4.7 mm (0.0047 m) and λ = 563 nm (563 ×10^{-9} m)

d = (3.30 × 563 ×10^{-9} ) ÷ (0.0047)

  = 1.8579 × 10^{-6} ÷ 0.0047

  = 0.0003951 m

d = 0.00040 m

The width of the slit is 0.4 mm (0.00040 m).

A 125-kg merry-go-round in the shape of a uniform, solid, horizontal disk of radius 1.50 m is set in motion by wrapping a rope a
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

201.6 N

Explanation:

m = mass of disk shaped merry-go-round = 125 kg

r = radius of the disk = 1.50 m

w₀ = Initial angular speed = 0 rad/s

w = final angular speed = 0.700 rev/s = (0.700) (2π) rad/s = 4.296 rad/s

t = time interval = 2 s

α = Angular acceleration

Using the equation

w = w₀ + α t

4.296 = 0 + 2α

α = 2.15 rad/s²

I = moment of inertia of merry-go-round

Moment of inertia of merry-go-round is given as  

I = (0.5) m r² = (0.5) (125) (1.50)² = 140.625 kgm²

F = constant force applied

Torque equation for the merry-go-round is given as

r F = I α

(1.50) F = (140.625) (2.15)

F = 201.6 N

AleksAgata [21]
The hypotenuse is measured at 120 meters of string, and you need to solve for the leg of the triangle that is horizontal. The degree is 40, so use trigonometry to figure it out. 
Cosin (40) is equal to around .766 
Adjacent/Hypotenuse 
x/120 = cos40 
Answer: 91.92533. 
If you use 3 significant figures it should be 91.9 meters.
