Which temperature scale does NOT have negative values?

A kayaker needs to paddle north across a 100-m-wide harbor. The tide is going out, creating a tidal current that flows to the ea

Savatey [412]

Answer:

$41.81^{\circ}$

Explanation:

The tidal current flows to the east at 2.0 m/s and the speed of the kayaker is 3.0 m/s.

Let Vector $\overrightarrow{OA}$ is the tidal current velocity as shown in the diagram.

In order to travel straight across the harbor, the vector addition of both the velocities (i.e the resultant velocity, $\vec {R}$ must be in the north direction.

Let $\overrightarrow{AB}$ is the speed of the kayaker having angle \theta measured north of east as shown in the figure.

For the resultant velocity in the north direction, the tail of the vector $\overrightarrow {OA}$ and head of the vector $\overrightarrow{AB}$ must lie on the north-south line.

Now, for this condition, from the triangle OAB

$|\overrightarrow{AB}|\sin \theta=|\overrightarrow{OA}|$

$\Rightarrow \sin\theta=\frac{|\overrightarrow{OA}|}{|\overrightarrow{AB}|}=\frac 2 3$

$\Rightarrow \theta=\sin^{-1}\frac23$

$\Rightarrow \theta=41.81^{\circ}$

Hence, the kayaker must paddle in the direction of $41.81^{\circ}$ in the north of east direction.

What is the speed of a car traveling 100 m in 20 s?

Ludmilka [50]

Answer: To answer this question, we will need the following equation: SPEED = DISTANCE/TIME (A multiplication and division triangle will be shown)i) The speed of the car is calculated by doing 100 metres/ 20 seconds which gives us 5 metres per second. ii) Rearranging the equation earlier, we can make the distance the subject of the equation so that we get SPEED x TIME = DISTANCE. We worked out the speed and the time was given as 1 minute 40 seconds but we cannot plug in the numbers yet as the time has to be converted to units of seconds (because our speed is in meters per second). 1 minute 40 seconds = 60 seconds + 40 seconds = 100 secondsWe then plug in the numbers to get the distance travelled = 5 metres per second x 100 seconds = 500 metres.

Sunlight strikes a solar panel, which is then used to power the lights in a

Stells [14]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Sunlight comes in the form of light energy. Upon striking the solar panels, it converts the light energy into electrical energy so as to run throughout the circuits. Then since it's used to power light, the electrical energy will be converted back into light energy
