A wave on the ocean surface with wavelength 44 m travels east at a speed of 18 m/s relative to the ocean floor. If, on this stre

tch of ocean, a powerboat is moving at 14 m/s (relative to the ocean floor), how often does the boat encounter a wave crest, if the boat is traveling (a) west, and (b) east?

Answer:

A)t=<u>1.375s</u>

B)t=11s

Explanation:

for this problem we will assume that the east is positive while the west is negative, what we must do is find the relative speed between the wave and the powerboat, and then with the distance find the time for each case

ecuations

V=Vw-Vp  (1)

V= relative speed

Vw= speed of wave

Vp=Speesd

t=X/V(2)

t=time

x=distance=44m

A) the powerboat moves to west

V=18-(-14)=32m/s

t=44/32=<u>1.375s</u>

B)the powerboat moves to east

V=18-14=4

t=44/4=<u>11s</u>

Answer:

I hope this helps and I'm not to late

A way the balls behave the same way is by bouncing about 1 time after throwing the balls up. A way the balls act differently is the blue ball is bouncier than all the balls, the red ball bounces about 2 times before stopping, and the green ball doesn’t really bounce except for one time.

calculate the work done in kilo joules in lifting a mass of 20kg at steady velocity through a vertical height of 20m
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf Work\ done = 4 kJ}

Explanation:

Since work done is in the form of potential energy, we will use the formula of potential energy here.

We know that,

<h3>P.E. = mgh </h3>

Where,

m = mass = 20 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²

h = vertical height = 20 m

So,

<h3>Work done = mgh</h3>

Work done = (20)(10)(20)

Work done = 4000 joules

Work done = 4 kJ

If a 10.0 kg object is on a surface that is inclined 30o and the coefficient of static friction is 0.65, what is the force of st
Alexxandr [17]
  fraction equation is<span>
                     F =µR 
 F=friction,µ=coefficient , R=reaction = mg 

use same equation for b part, but the reaction is no longer mg because the plain is now inclined. Draw a forces diagram and you will see that the reaction force can be calculated from the weight of the object and inclination of the plain using trigonometry.</span>
