Two racing boats set out from the same dock and speed away at the same constant speed of 104 km/h for half an hour (0.500 h), th

e blue boat headed 24.0° south of west, and the green boat headed 37.7° south of west. During this half-hour (a) how much farther west does the blue boat travel, compared to the green boat, and (b) how much farther south does the green boat travel, compared to the blue boat? Express your answers in km.

Answer:

The blue boat traveled 6.1 km farther west than the green boat

The green boat traveled 10.7 km farther south than the blue boat

Explanation:

The equation for linear uniform speed movement is

X(t) = X0 + v * t

Since we have two coordinates (X, Y) we use

X(t) = X0 + vx * t

Y(t) = Y0 + vy * t

The dock will be the origin of coordinates so X0 and Y0 will be zero. The X axis will be pointing west and the Y axis south.

The blue boat moves with a direction 24° south of west, so it will have speeds:

vxb = 104 * cos(24) = 95 km/h

vyb = 104 * sin(24) = 42.3 km/h

And the green boat:

vxg = 104 * cos(37.7) = 82.3 km/h

vyg = 104 * sin(37.7) = 63.6 km/h

After half hour the boats will have arrived at positions

Xb = 95 * 0.5 = 47.5 km

Yb = 42.3 * 0.5 = 21.1 km

And

Xg = 82.3 * 0.5 = 41.4 km

Yg = 63.6 * 0.5 = 31.8 km

The difference in positions of the boats

47.5 - 41.4 = 6.1 km

31.8 - 21.1 = 10.7 km

Katyanochek1 [597]
I believe that the answer to the question provided above is that with increase in resistance provided with constant current, Power dissipated will be lessen since power loss is high. Low power dissipation has low heat production.
Hope my answer would be a great help for you.    If you have more questions feel free to ask here at Brainly.

You’ve had practice calculating the grams of hydrogen gas, but it is also possible to calculate the amount of oxygen gas produce
alekssr [168]

Answer:41.991ml

Explanation:

Equations: 2 H2O → 4H+ + 4e + O2 OXIDATION

2 H+ + 2e → H2 REDUCTION 

Electrolysis is the chemical decomposition of compounds when electricity is made to pass through a molten compound or solution.

from the oxidation reaction:

1moles of oxygen requires 4moles of electrons to be discharged at the product

F=96500C/mol

Quantity of charge Q=It

=60*60*0.201A

Q=723.6C

Mole=Q/(F*mole ratio of electron)

Mole= 723.6/(4*96500)

Mole=((1809)/(965000))

M=0.0018746114

M1/M2=V1/V2

1/0.00187=22.4dm^3/V2

V2=22.4*0.00187

V2=0.04199129534dm^3

A roller coaster travels down a 120 m track in 12.5 seconds how fast does the roller coaster go
KIM [24]

Answer:

9.6m/s

Explanation:

Using the equation S=d/t where s=speed, d=distance, and t=time

plug in the known variables

S=120m/12.5s

S=9.6m/s

If you had an unlimited amount of mass to hang, what would be the range of possible accelerations for the system?
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The entire cart/hanging mass system follows the same law, ΣF = ma. This means that plotting force vs. acceleration yields a linear relationship (of the form y = mx).
