Answer:

The speed of the boat is equal to 13.50 ft/s.

Explanation:

given,

1  nautical mile = 6076 ft

1 knot = 1 nautical mile /hour

1 knot = 6076 ft/hr

speed of boat = 8 knots

 8 knots = 8 nautical mile /hour

               =8 \times \dfrac{6076\ ft}{1\nautical\ mile}\times \dfrac{1\ hour}{60\times 60\ s}

               = 13.50 ft/s

The speed of the boat is equal to 13.50 ft/s.

What is intermolecular forces and how is it related to phases of matter
MakcuM [25]
Intermolecular forces are forces that keep molecules together. For example, the forces between two water molecules. The stronger the intermolecular forces are, the more "solid" is the matter going to be, meaning that the intermolecular forces are the strongest in solids and weakest in gases.
Make sure not to confuse intERmolecular forces (forces between *molecules*) and intRAmolecular forces (forces between *atoms* that make up a molecule).

For this problem, let's use the approach of dimensional analysis. This technique is done by cancelling out like units that appear both on the numerator and the denominator side. As a result, this technique will let you know that your final answer conforms to what parameter is asked. In this case, the final answer should be in kJ. We use the conversion: 1000 cal = 4.184 kJ The solution is as follows:

<span>6.95×10</span>⁵<span> cal * 4.184 kJ/1000 cal = 2,907.88 kJ</span>
