Answer:

Sam will do 1152 J of work to stop the boat

Explanation:

Work: This is defined as the product of force and distance, the S.I unit of work is Joules. At any point in science, during calculation Energy and worked can be interchange because they have the same unit.

E = W = 1/2mv²................ Equation 1

Where E = energy, W = work, m = mass, v = velocity.

Given: m = 900 kg, v = 1.6 m/s

Substituting these values into equation 1

W = 1/2(900)(1.6)²

W = 450×2.56

W = 1152 J.

Therefore Sam will do 1152 J of work to stop the boat

Let's say you have two tuning forks which are supposed to produce the same frequency, 512 Hz. One is of good quality, but the ot
solong [7]

Answer:

= 2 beats per seconds

Explanation:

  • From |f -f'| = modulus of the difference between the frequency given.
  • f = 510Hz and f' = 512Hz
  • Difference between the frequency will give us the number of beat per seconds.
  • i.e 2 beats per seconds

These also shows how to get the period of the tuning forks.
