A 14-foot boat operating under oars after dark must show what color light to prevent a collision?

<span>A "White" colored light must be shown by a 14-foot boat that is operating under oars after it is dark, in order to prevent a collision.

Boats which are less than 23 feet cannot exceed a maximum speed of 7 knots. They need to exhibit an all-around white light when it is sailing in the dark.

The other practicable sidelights can also be used instead of the white lights, when they are sailing in international waters.

A 250 - ω resistor is connected in series with a 4.80 - μf capacitor. the voltage across the capacitor is vc=(7.60v)⋅sin[(120rad
galben [10]
<span>553 ohms The Capacitive reactance of a capacitor is dependent upon the frequency. The lower the frequency, the higher the reactance, the higher the frequency, the lower the reactance. The equation is Xc = 1/(2*pi*f*C) where Xc = Reactance in ohms pi = 3.1415926535..... f = frequency in hertz. C = capacitance in farads. I'm assuming that the voltage and resistor mentioned in the question are for later parts that are not mentioned in this question. Reason is that they have no effect on the reactance, but would have an effect if a question about current draw is made in a later part. With that said, let's calculate the reactance. The 120 rad/s frequency is better known as 60 Hz. Substitute known values into the formula. Xc = 1/(2*pi* 60 * 0.00000480) Xc = 1/0.001809557 Xc = 552.6213302 Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 553 ohms.</span>

Suppose that the angular separation of two stars is 0.1 arcseconds, and you photograph them with a telescope that has an angular
Crank

Answer: the photograph will likely show only one star.

Explanation:

Since their angular separation is smaller than the telescope's angular resolution, the picture will apparently show only one star rather than two.

What is the acceleration during the pushing-off phase, in m/27 Express your answer in meters per second squared. A bush baby, an
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

a = 12.78 g's

Explanation:

Height reached by the object after push off is given as

H = 2.3 m

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a s

now we have

0 - v^2 = 2(-9.81)(2.3)

v = 6.72 m/s

now we know that this push last for total distance of 0.18 m

so during the push we will have

v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d

6.72^2 - 0 = 2a(0.18)

a = 125.35 m/s^2

now in terms of g = 9.81 m/s/s we have

a = \frac{125.35}{9.81} gs

a = 12.78 g's
