By applying Newton's second law of motion;
ma = mg - T
Where,
m = mass; a = downward accelerations (+ve value) or upward acceleration (-ve value); g = gravitational acceleration; T = tension.
For the current case, the velocity is constant therefore,
a = 0
Then,
0 = mg - T
T = mg = 115*9.81 = 1128.15 N
Tension in the cable is 1128.15 N.
I’m unsure of the answer, but it is not b.
This is kinetic energy to heat energy
Let x mph be the speed of the ship in still water.
Against the current, the net speed is, (x-1.9) mph.
Time, t= distance, d/ Speed, v => 9= 113.4/(x-1.9) => 9(x-1.9) = 113.4 => x-1.9 = 113.4/9 => x = 12.6+1.9 = 14.5 mph
Moving with the current, the net speed of the ship = 14.5+1.9 =16.4 mph
Time take, t = d/v = 113.4/16.4 = 6.915 hours
Answer:
The answer is 
.
Explanation:
You are asking only for the total volume, so the important data here is the surface area of the earth's crust,
and the average thickness of the earth's crust,
.
Imagine that you can stretch the surface area as if it were a blanket, now if you want to calculate its volume, you just need to multiply its area by its thickness,
.
