Answer: 131.14km per day

Explanation: since the second half of the terns migration takes 122 days we can assume that the full migration would take 244 days. using this we can divide the total distance by the total amount of days it takes (because speed = distance/time) which is 32,000/244, which would be 131.14

Answer: $37^{\circ}$ North of west

Explanation:

Given

40,000-ton luxury line traveling 20 knots towards west and

60,000 ton freighter traveling towards North with 10 knots

suppose v is the common velocity after collision

conserving momentum in west direction

$20\times 40,000=(20,000+60,000)v\cos \theta$

suppose the final velocity makes \theta angle with x axis

$v\cos \theta =10----1$

Conserving Momentum in North direction

$10\times 60,000=80,000\times v\sin\theta$

$v\sin \theta =\frac{15}{2}----2$

divide 1 and 2

$\tan \theta =\frac{3}{4}$

$\theta =37^{\circ}$

so search in the area $37^{\circ}$ North of west to find the ship

Two drums of the same size and same height are taken.

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

i) The pressure acting on the base of B will be half the pressure acting on the base of A

ii) The pressure acting on the base of B will be the same as the pressure acting on the base of A

iii) The pressure on the base of drum A will be slightly less than the pressure on the base of drum B

Explanation:

The pressure acting on the base of the drum, P = h·ρ·g

Where;

h = The level of the liquid in the drum

$h_{max}$ = The height of the drums

ρ = The density of the liquid in the drum

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

i) If A is completely filled, we have $h_A$ = $h_{max}$

Therefore, $P_A$ = $h_{max}$ × $\rho_{liquid}$ ×g

If B is half filled, we have, $h_B$ = (1/2)· $h_{max}$

$P_B$ = (1/2) × $h_{max}$ × $\rho_{liquid}$ ×g

Therefore, $P_B$ = (1/2) × $P_A$

The pressure acting on the base of B will be half the pressure acting on the base of A

ii) If both A and B are each filled with water (the same liquid), then the pressure on their bases will be $P_A$ = $h_{max}$ × $\rho_{water}$ ×g = $P_B$ , the same, given that the acceleration due to gravity, g, is constant and the same in Nepal and India

iii) If A is filled with water, and B is filled with salty water, we have that, the density of salty water is slightly higher than water, therefore, we get;

$P_A$ = $h_{max}$ × $\rho_{water}$ ×g < $P_B$ =

The pressure on the base of drum A will be less than the pressure on the base of drum B.

NARA [144]

On an incline, the force causing the ball to move downwards would be gravity. Additionally, the component of gravity causing this ball to move downwards would be mgsintheta.

Hope this helps!
