A water-skier is moving at a speed of 14.3 m/s. When she skis in the same direction as a traveling wave, she springs upward ever
kiruha [24]

Answer:

a) 1.95 m/s

b) 5.56 m

Explanation:

Given that:

Velocity of the skier (V_s) = 14.3 m/s

For the skier moving in the direction of the wave, we have:

Period (T) = 0.450 s

Relative velocity (V) of the skier in regard with the wave =  (V_s - V_w)

where:

V_s = velocity of the skier

V_w = velocity of the wave

The wavelength (\lambda) can be written as:

\lambda = (V_s-V_w)T

\lambda = (V_s-V_w) 0.450m ---------------> Equation (1)

For the skier moving opposite in the direction of the wave, we have:

Period (T) = 0.342 s

Relative velocity (V) of the skier in regard with the wave = (V_s + V_w)

The wavelength (\lambda) can be written as:

\lambda = (V_s+V_w)T

\lambda = (V_s+V_w) 0.342m   ------------------> Equation 2

Equating equation (1) and equation (2) and substituting  V_s  = 14.3 m/s ; we have:

(V_s-V_w) 0.450m  =  (V_s-V_w) 0.342m

0.450m(V_s)-0.450m(V_w)   =  0.342m(V_s)+0.342m(V_w)

Collecting the like terms; we have:

0.450m(V_s) - 0.342m(V_s) =  0.342m(V_w)+0.450m(V_w)

(V_s)(0.450m - 0.342m) =  (V_w)0.342m+0.450m

14.3m/s(0.450m - 0.342m) =  (V_w)0.342m+0.450m

14.3m/s(0.108m =  (V_w)0.792m

1.5444m^2/s =  (V_w)0.792m

(V_w) = \frac{1.5444m^2/s}{ 0.792m}

(V_w) = 1.95 m/s

b)

The Wavelength of the wave can be calculated using :  ( \lambda }) = (V_s-V_w) 0.450m

({\lambda}) = (14.3 m/s -1.95 m/s)(0.450)

(\lambda) = (12.35)0.450m

(\lambda)= 5.5575 m

λ ≅ 5.56 m

A balky cow is leaving the barn as you try harder and harder to push her back in. In coordinates with the origin at the barn doo
Tresset [83]

Answer:

The work done is -209.42 J.

Explanation:

F(x) = (- 20 - 3 x ) N

x = 0 to x = 6.9 m

Here, the force is variable in nature, so the work done by the variable force is given by

W =\int F dx\\\\W =\int_{0}^{6.9}(-20- 3x dx )\\\\W= \left [ - 20 x - 1.5 x^2 \right ]_{0}^{6.9}\\\\W = - 20 (6.9 - 0) - 1.5(6.9\times 6.9 - 0)\\\\W =- 138 - 71.42\\\\W = - 209.42  J

Which of the following is quantitative data? a. Color c. Shape b. Odor d. Volume
Papessa [141]
Hello there! Quantitive data has to do with measurements that can be shown with numbers. Examples of this are things like your height and the length of your arms. With that alone, A and B are eliminated, because those answer choices make no sense. They can't be expressed by numbers and you can't measure colors or odors mathematically. Volume is a way to measure something that CAN be written down by numbers. D is the only answer choice that fits the definition of quantitive data. The answer is D: volume.
