Assume that the Deschutes River has straight and parallel banks and that the current is 0.75 m/s. Drifting down the river, you f

all out of your boat and immediately grab a piling of the Warm Springs Bridge. You hold on for 40 s and then swim after the boat with a speed relative to the water of 0.95 m/s. The distance of the boat downstream from the bridge when you catch it is______________.

Answer:

    d = 142.5 m

Explanation:

This is a vector exercise. Let's calculate how much the boat travels in the 40s

     d₀ = v_{b} t

    d₀ = 0.75 40

    d₀ = 30 m

Let's write the kinematic equations

Boat

     x = d₀  +  v_{b} t

     x = 0 +  v_{h} t

At the meeting point the coordinate is the same for both

    d₀  +  v_{b} t =  v_{h} t

    t ( v_{h} -  v_{b}) = d₀  

    t = d₀  / ( v_{b}-  v_{h})

The two go in the same direction therefore the speeds have the same sign

     t = 30 / (0.95-0.775)

     t = 150 s

The distance traveled by man is

     d =  v_{h} t

     d = 0.95 150

     d = 142.5 m

What is always included in a comparative investigation?
iragen [17]
A comparison is always included in a comparative investigation. Comparative investigation collects data about different objects, features, organisms, sometimes under a different set of conditions to compare them. The similarities and differences that occur during a set of time or conditions are observed and compared.

First, find the magnitude of v⃗ , that is, the speed v of the two-car unit after the collision.
Rufina [12.5K]

The magnitude of v⃗ is {sqrt(m1v1)2+(m2v2)2/ m1+m2}, that is, the speed v of the two-car unit after the collision.

<h3>What is collision?</h3>
  • In physics, collisions occur when particles, aggregates of particles, or solids come close to each other, interact and affect each other.
  • Collisions are of three types Fully elastic collision, inelastic collision and Perfectly inelastic collision.
  • Multiply the mass of the second object by its velocity.
  • For example, if the weight is 1,000 and the speed is -30 meters per second, then its momentum is 30,000 kg meters per second.
  • Add the two velocities together to determine  the direction the object will move after a collision.
  • So the formula for determining the size of a vector (in 2D space) is v = (x, y).|v| = √(x2 + y2).
  • This formula is derived from the Pythagorean theorem.
  • The formula  V = (x, y, z) that determines the size of a vector (in 3-dimensional space) is:|V| = √(x2 + y2 + z2)
