The acceleration of the boat is 2 m/s^2 (eastward)

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using Newton's second law, which states that:

F = ma (1)

where

F is the net force on a body

m is its mass

a is its acceleration

First of all, we have to find the net force acting on the boat. We have:

- The force of the motor, 100 N eastward

- The force of the air resistance, 60 N westward

So the net force is:

F = 100 N - 60 N = 40 N (eastward)

Now we can apply eq.(1), using:

F = 40 N

m = 20 kg (mass of the boat)

and solving for a, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{40}{20}=2.0 m/s^2

And the direction is the same as the net force (eastward).

A laser beam with a frequency of 180 Hz forms an 8 m standing wave with 10 nodes.
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:33

Explanation:

F = frequency

N =  Node count

w = wave lenght

v = wave velocity

L = distance wave traveled

First find wave length of laser

w = (2/(N))*(L)

w = (2/(10))*(8)

w = 1.6

then using (w), find velocity

V =  (w)(F)

V = (1.6)*(108)

V = 288

Plug in V and the new frequency to solve for new node count

F = NV/2L

(600) = (N)*(288) / 2 * (8)

(N) = 33.33

there are 33 nodes

Solve for the length of the inclined plane if the angle equals 19.45 degrees.
mel-nik [20]

The length of the inclined plane is approximately 12 ft

The situation forms a right angle triangle.

<h3>Right triangle</h3>

Right triangle have one of its angle as 90 degrees.

Therefore,

The length of the inclined plane is the hypotenuse of the triangle. The length of the inclined plane can be found using trigonometric ratios.

height = 4 ft

angle(∅) = 19.45°

sin 19.45 = 4 / h

h = 4 / 0.33298412235

h = 12.0125847796

h = 12 ft

Therefore, the length of the inclined plane is approximately 12 ft
