A ship travels with velocity given by 12, with current flowing in the direction given by 11 with respect to some co-ordinate axe
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

v_x = 11.78 m/s

Explanation:

Velocity of the ship is given as

v = 12 units

the direction of the velocity of the ship is making an angle of 11 degree with the current

so we will have two components of the velocity

1) along the direction of the current

2) perpendicular to the direction of the current

so here we know that the component of the ship velocity along the direction of the current is given as

v_x = v cos\theta

v_x = 12 cos11

v_x = 11.78 m/s

Which of the following has the lowest U value?
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

c. expanded polyurethane

Explanation:

Thermal performance of a building fabric is measured in terms of heat loss and is expressed as U-value or R-value. U-value is the rate of heat transferred through a structure divided by the difference in temperature across the structure with a unit of measurement of W/m²K.You can calculate the U-value of a by getting the reciprocal of the sum of thermal resistances , R, making the building material.

If you have the value of R, then U=1/R

Material                         size            R                      U

plywood                          1"              1.25                0.8

Poured concrete            2"              0.99               1.010

Expanded polyurethane  1"            6.5                   0.1538

Asbestos shingles            1"             0.03                33.33

The material with lowest U-value is expanded polyurethane

A blank is any disturbance that carries energy from one place to another through matter and space.
Eduardwww [97]
<h3>Answer;</h3>

<em>A wave </em>

<em><u>A wave</u></em> is any form of a disturbance that carries energy from one place to another through a matter and space

<h3>Explanation;</h3>
  • Waves carry energy from one point, the source to another point or place. The transmission of a wave may occur through the space or through a material medium.
  • Electromagnetic waves are those waves whose transmissions occurs through the space, they do not require material medium for transmission,for example, radio waves, while mechanical waves are those that require material medium for transmission, for example sound waves.
  • The energy of wave depends on the frequency of the wave and the wavelength of that particular wave.

avanturin [10]

Let us say that Cp is the specific heat of the metal object. Then we do a heat balance (heat lost by metal = heat gained by water):

- 19g * Cp * (22degC – 96degC) = 75g * 4.184J/g degC * (22degC – 18degC)

<span>Cp = 0.893 J/g degC</span>
