A rope connects boat A to boat B. Boat A starts from rest and accelerates to a speed of 9.5 m/s in a time t = 47 s. The mass of

boat B is 540 kg. Assuming a constant frictional force of 230 N acts on boat B, what is the magnitude of the tension in the rope that connects the boats during the time that boat A is accelerating?

Answer: 339.148N

Explanation:

Data

Time (t) = 47s

U = 0m/s

V = 9.5m/s

Mass of B = 540kg

Frictional force on B = 230N

Both boats are connected so if A moves, B moves too.

Acceleration of boat A =?

Using equation of motion,

V = u + at

9.5 = 0 + a*47

a = 9.5 / 47

a = 0.2021 m/s²

The force required to accelerate boat B since it's the same force moving both boats =?

F = Mass * acceleration

F = 540 * 0.2021 = 109.14N

A frictional force of 230N exists on boat B

Total force (Tension) = frictional force + normal force = (109.15 + 230)N = 339.148N

Science please helppp
Daniel [21]

The red box must way more. Gravitational potential energy is the product of a an objects mass times the acceleration due to gravity (which is constant on earth) times its height. Since the objects are on the same shelf they are at the same height, and since gravitational acceleration is constant as long as we stay on planet earth, then the mass is the only possible thing that could have changed. This means that the red box must weigh more than the blue box.

Which is a scalar quantity displacement distance force acceleration​
cestrela7 [59]

A scalar is a quantity that is fully described by a magnitude only. It is described by just a single number. Some examples of scalar quantities include speed, volume, mass, temperature, power, energy, and time. A vector is a quantity that has both a magnitude and a direction.

I hope this helps you.
