Answer: The observing friend will the swimmer moving at a speed of 0.25 m/s.
Explanation:
- Let <em>S</em> be the speed of the swimmer, given as 1.25 m/s
- Let
be the speed of the river's current given as 1.00 m/s.
- Note that this speed is the magnitude of the velocity which is a vector quantity.
- The direction of the swimmer is upstream.
Hence the resultant velocity is given as,
= S — S 0
= 1.25 — 1
= 0.25 m/s.
Therefore, the observing friend will see the swimmer moving at a speed of 0.25 m/s due to resistance produced by the current of the river.
Send wave from your location to the object and wait until echo is back.
Measure the time taken.
If you know the speed of wave (say sound wave), than just multiply by half time taken wave to return
Answer:
If a man starts running on a boat with an acceleration a with respect to the boat, there is no external force that acts on the Boat+Man system
Answer:
b. Constant magnitude, but varying direction, perpendicular to the equipotential.
Explanation:
As we know that the relation between electric field and electric potential is given as

here if we say that potential is constant because electric field sensor is moving along equi-potential line.
Then we will say
V = constant
so we have

so electric field will remain constant always in magnitude and always remains perpendicular to the surface
so we have
b. Constant magnitude, but varying direction, perpendicular to the equipotential.
