A tugboat tows a ship with a constant force of magnitude F1. The increase in the ship's speed during a 10 s interval is 5.0 km/h

. When a second tugboat applies an additional constant force of magnitude F2 in the same direction, the speed increases by 19 km/h during a 10 s interval. How do the magnitudes of F1 and F2 compare? (Neglect the effects of water resistance and air resistance.)

Answer

given,

time  = 10 s

ship's speed = 5 Km/h

F = m a

a is the acceleration and m is mass.

In the first case

F₁=m x a₁

where a₁ =  difference in velocity / time

F₁ is constant acceleration is also a constant.

Δv₁ = 5 x 0.278

Δv₁ = 1.39 m/s

a_1=\dfrac{1.39}{10}

a₁ = 0.139 m/s²

F₂ =m x a₂

F₃ = F₂ + F₁

Δv₃ = 19 x 0.278

Δv₃ = 5.282 m/s

a₃=Δv₂ / t

a_3=\dfrac{5.282}{10}

a₃ = 0.5282 m²/s

m a₃=m a₁ + m a₂

a₃ = a₂ + a₁

0.5282 = a₂ + 0.139

a₂=0.3892 m²/s

F₂ = m x 0.3892...........(1)

F₁ = m x 0.139...............(2)

F₂/F₁

ratio = \dfrac{0.3892}{0.139}

ratio = 2.8

State and explain in terms of the forces acting how the acceleration of the object varies during its fall?
zloy xaker [14]

Answer: State and explain, in terms of the forces acting,how the acceleration of the object varies during its fall. As the object is released two forces act on it. Its weight and and air resistance. At this point its weight is much greater due to the force of gravity on the object so it accelerates downward.

The pitch made by a musical instrument is dependent on the frequency of the wave. Frequency is the inverse of period. What impac
Blizzard [7]

I think the frequency of the wave has <em>no effect</em> whatsoever on the wave speed.  The speed of a wave completely depends on the characteristics of the medium it's traveling through.  

Physical properties of the medium determine the speed of mechanical waves, like sound, ocean waves, seismic waves, Slinky waves etc.  If it depended on the frequency of the waves, then the sound of the band or orchestra would be all smeared out when it reaches you ... you'd hear the drums and bass first, and the flutes and trumpets last.

Electrical properties of the medium determine the speed of electromagnetic waves, like radio, light, and X-rays. If it depended on the frequency of the waves, then you couldn't watch a football game in the stadium or on TV.  The reds, oranges, and yellows would reach your eyes first, and then the greens, blues, and violets would arrive later.  The action would be all smeared out, and things that happened first might reach  your eyes last.  What a mess !
