Answer:

Time=7.84hrs

Explanation:

This is an inverse proportionality questions

Mathematically time t varies as 1/distance d

Hence T= dk/r

But speed r = distance/t

d= r*t= 9*20=180km/hr

We're k= constant of proportionality

At t=9hrs d=180km/hr

Hence k=r*t/d=20*9/1620=0.111

Finding t at at 1620km for 23km/hr

t=1620*0.111/23=7.84hrs

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

The boat's acceleration is 4 m/s²

Explanation:

This question seeks to test the knowledge of acceleration and how to calculate acceleration when the speed is provided. Hence, the formula for acceleration would be used here.

Acceleration (m/s²) = speed (in m/s) ÷ time (in seconds)

Acceleration = 80 m/s ÷ 20 secs

Acceleration = 4 m/s² or 4 ms⁻²

The boat's acceleration is 4 m/s²

Un movil aumenta su velocidad de 10m/s a 20m/s acelerando uniformemente a razon de 5m/s2 ¿que distancia logro en dicha operacion
Kruka [31]

v₀ = initial velocity of the mobile = 10 m/s

v = final velocity of the mobile = 20 m/s

a = acceleration of the mobile = 5 m/s²

d = distance traveled during this operation = ?

Using the kinematics equation

v² = v²₀ + 2 a d

inserting the above values in the equation

20² = 10² + 2 (5) d

400 = 100 + 10 d

subtracting 100 both side

400 - 100 = 100 - 100 + 10 d

300 = 10 d

dividing both side by 10

300/10 = 10 d/10

d = 30 m

hence mobile travels 30 m.

g How many diffraction maxima are contained in a region of the Fraunhofer single-slit pattern, subtending an angle of 2.12°, for
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

2

Explanation:

We know that in the Fraunhofer single-slit pattern,

maxima is given by

a\text{sin}\theta=\frac{2N+1}{2}\lambda

Given values

θ=2.12°

slit width a= 0.110 mm.

wavelength λ= 582 nm

Now plugging values to calculate N we get

0.110\times10^{-3}\text{sin}2.12=(\frac{2N+1}{2})582\times10^{-9}

Solving the above equation we get

we N= 2.313≅ 2

The smallest detail visible with ground-based solar telescopes is about 1 arc second. How large a region (in km) does this repre
mestny [16]

Answer:

x = 727.5 km

Explanation:

With the conditions given using trigonometry, we can find the tangent

       tan θ = CO / CA

With CO the opposite leg and CE is the adjacent leg which is the distance from the Tierral to Sun

   

        D =150 10⁶ km (1000m / 1 km)

        D = 150 10⁹ m.

We must take the given angle to radians.

       1º  = 3600 arc s  

       π rad = 180º

       θ = 1 arc s (1º / 3600 s arc) (pi rad / 180º) =

       θ = 4.85 10⁻⁶ rad

That angle is extremely small, so we can approximate the tangent to the angle

     

       θ = x / D

       x = θ D

       x = 4.85 10-6  150 109

       x = 727.5 103 m

       x = 727.5 km
