A circular radar antenna on a coast guard ship has a diameter of 2.10 m and radiates at a frequency of 16.0 ghz. two small boats

are located 5.00 km away from the ship. how close together could the boats be and still be detected as two objects

By definition,
q = 1.22y/D

Where,
q = min. angle
y = wavelength
D = Aperture diameter = diameter of the antenna

At distance "x" from the antenna,
L =xq = 1.22xy/D
Where, L = Min. distance

But, y =c/f = (3*10^8)/(16*10^9) = 0.01875 m

Substituting;
L = 1.22*5*10^3*0.01875/2.1 = 54.46 m

Explain how Pascal's principle can be used to design a fluid power system and describe how a fluid power system works.
zhenek [66]
Pascal's law of fluid transfer states that when there is an increase in fluid pressure, the rest of the extrinsic variables also increases. For example, in a flow of liquid in an orifice, there is a contraction of diameter in the orifice part. The fluid that will go in there increases in pressure and thereby an increase in velocity as well.

How did the magnet’s density measurement using the Archimedes’ Principle compare to the density measurement using the calculated
guapka [62]

Answer:

The two methods will yield different results as one is subject to experimental errors that us the Archimedes method of measurement, the the density measurement method will be more accurate

Explanation:

This is because the density method using the calculated volume will huve room for less errors that's occur in practical method i.e Archimedes method due to human error

After coming down a slope, a 60-kg skier is coasting northward on a level, snowy surface at a constant 15 m>s. Her 5.0-kg cat
Vinil7 [7]

To solve this exercise, it is necessary to apply the concepts of conservation of the moment especially in objects that experience an inelastic colposition.

They are expressed as,

m_1v_1+m_2v_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_f

Where,

m_1= mass of the skier

m_2= mass of the cat

v_1 = initial velocity of skier

v_2 = initial velocity of cat

v_f= final velocity of both

Re-arrange to find V_f we have,

V_f = \frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{(m_1+m_2)}

V_f = \frac{(60)(15)+(5)(-3.8)}{(60+5)}

V_f = 13.55m/s

Once the final velocity is found it is possible to calculate the change in kinetic energy, so

\Delta KE = KE_i-KE_f

\Delta KE = \frac{1}{2}(m_1v_1^2+m_2v^2_2)-\frac{1}{2}(m_1+m_2)v_f^2

\Delta KE = \frac{1}{2}((60)(15)^2+(5)(-3.8)^2)-\frac{1}{2}(60+5)(13.55)^2

\Delta KE = 819.1J

Therefore the amount of kinetic energy converted in to internal energy is 819J
