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

Physics

Tomtit [17]3 years ago

<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.

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

P = 2 pi R / v    period of space station

F / m = v^2 / R    centripetal force per unit of mass

So F / m = 4 pi^2 R^2 / (P^2 * R) = 4 pi^2 R / P^2

Also, F / m = 9.8 m/s^2   earth's gravitational attraction

So 9.8 = 4 pi^2 R / P^2    or    R = 9.8 P^2 / 4 * pi^2) = 195 m

Or D = 2 R = 390 m the diameter required

What is hooke's law? does it apply to elastic materials or to inelastic materials?
zysi [14]
When you talk about Hooke's law, it always have to do something with springs. Hooke's Law, from Robert Hooke, saw a relation between the force applied to the spring and the extension of its length. The equation is: F = kx, where k is the spring constant and x is the displacement of the original and stretched lengths. In other words, x is the length of deformation. Hence, the object must be elastic to come up with a displacement or deformation, in the first place. Then, the Hooke's Law is only applicable to elastic materials.
