A boat is traveling with a velocity of 18 meters/second relative to water and the river is flowing at a velocity of 2.5 meters/s

econd relative to the shore. What will be the velocity of the boat if the boat and the water are in opposite directions?

Vt = Vboat - Vriver
Vt = 18 - 2.5 = 15.5 m/s

If the boat's direction is the same as the water, you sum the velocities of the river and the boat .

Answer:Velocity of boat is 15.5 $\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:Using equation of relative motion

$V_{boat,water}=V_{boat}-V{water}$

=> $V_{boat}=V_{boat,water}+V_{water}$

where velocity of boat relative to water , $V_{boat,water}$ =18 m/s

velocity of water, $V_{water}=-2.5\frac{m}{s}$

and velocity of boat , $V_{boat}=? \frac{m}{s}$ to be calculated.

Putting the known values in the above equation , we get

$V_{boat}= (18-2.5)\frac{m}{s}=15.5\frac{m}{s}$

A circular swimming pool has a diameter of 12 m. The circular side of the pool is 3 m high, and the depth of the water is 2.5 m.

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Explanation:

Diameter of pool = 12 m

radius of pool, r = 6 m

Total height raised, h = 3 + 2.5 = 5.5 m

density of water, d = 1000 kg/m³

Mass of water, m = Volume of water x density

m = πr²h x d

m = 3.14 x 6 x 6 x 5.5 x 1000

m = 113040 kg

Work = m x g x h

W = 113040 x 9.8 x 5.5

W = 6092856 J

please help! find magnitude and direction (the counterclockwise angle with the +x axis) of a vector that is equal to a + c

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Option (2)

Explanation:

From the figure attached,

Horizontal component, $A_x=A\text{Sin}37$

$A_x=12[\text{Sin}(37)]$

= 7.22 m

Vertical component, $A_y=A[\text{Cos}(37)]$

= 9.58 m

Similarly, Horizontal component of vector C,

$C_x$ = C[Cos(60)]

= 6[Cos(60)]

= $\frac{6}{2}$

= 3 m

$C_y=6[\text{Sin}(60)]$

= 5.20 m

Resultant Horizontal component of the vectors A + C,

$R_x=7.22-3=4.22$ m

$R_y=9.58-5.20$ = 4.38 m

Now magnitude of the resultant will be,

From ΔOBC,

$R=\sqrt{(R_x)^{2}+(R_y)^2}$

= $\sqrt{(4.22)^2+(4.38)^2}$

= $\sqrt{17.81+19.18}$

= 6.1 m

Direction of the resultant will be towards vector A.

tan(∠COB) = $\frac{\text{CB}}{\text{OB}}$

= $\frac{R_y}{R_x}$

= $\frac{4.38}{4.22}$

m∠COB = $\text{tan}^{-1}(1.04)$

= 46°

Therefore, magnitude of the resultant vector will be 6.1 m and direction will be 46°.

Option (2) will be the answer.

When an unbalanced force acts on an object,

Gwar [14]

When balanced forces follow up on an object, the object won't move. If you push against a wall, the wall pushes back with an equal but opposite force. Neither you nor the wall will move. Forces that cause a change in the motion of an object are unbalanced forces.

Answer:

moderate low: 82
moderate high: 112.75
vigorous low: 123
vigorous high: 174.25

Explanation:

When calculations are repetitive, I find it convenient to use a calculator that can work with tables.

The PMHR is (220 -15) = 205.

Each of the other heart rates is computed as the formula shows. For example, the low moderate heart rate is 205×0.40 = <u> 82 </u> bpm

The other rates are shown in the attached table. They are computed the same way.
