A PWC is overtaking another vessel. Which vessel must give way?

1 answer:

8 0

The PWC must give way. The boat that is being overtaken needs to just keep going the same way keeping the same speed, while the PWC gives way and increases the speed in order to overtake the other vessel. Very similar to how driving a normal vehicle works when driving on ground.

Margaret [11]

Answer:

$P=2.57\times 10^{-7}\ N/m^2$

Explanation:

Given that,

A radio wave transmits 38.5 W/m² of power per unit area.

A flat surface of area A is perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave.

We need to find the radiation pressure on it. It is given by the formula as follows :

$P=\dfrac{2I}{c}$

Where

c is speed of light

Putting all the values, we get :

$P=\dfrac{2\times 38.5}{3\times 10^8}\\\\=2.57\times 10^{-7}\ N/m^2$

So, the radiation pressure is $2.57\times 10^{-7}\ N/m^2$ .

A stretched string is observed to have four equal segments in a standing wave driven at a frequency of 480 hz. what driving freq

Korvikt [17]

600Hz is the driving frequency needed to create a standing wave with five equal segments.

To find the answer, we have to know about the fundamental frequency.

<h3>How to find the driving frequency?</h3>

The following expression can be used to relate the fundamental frequency to the driving frequency;

f(n) = n * f (1)

where, f(1) denotes the fundamental frequency and the driving frequency f(n).

The standing wave has four equal segments, hence with n=4 and f(n)=4, we may calculate the fundamental frequency.

f(4) = 4× f (1)

480 = 4× f(1)

f(1) = 480/4 =120Hz.

So, 120Hz is the fundamental frequency.

To determine the driving frequency necessary to create a standing wave with five equally spaced peaks?
For, n = 5,

f(n) = n 120Hz,

f(5) = 5×120Hz=600Hz.

Consequently, 600Hz is the driving frequency needed to create a standing wave with five equal segments.
