How could the action force of a canoe moving through water be increased?

One way the action force of a canoe could be increased is by peddling with an oar while sitting in the canoe. The point here is that the oar pushes against the current of the water, causing the canoe to move further.

A space vehicle is traveling at 3760 km/h relative to Earth when the exhausted rocket motor is disengaged and sent backward. The

almond37 [142]

Answer:

3688 km/h

Explanation:

Given:-

- The speed of vehicle relative to earth, vs_e = 3760 km/h

- The relative speed of command and motor, v_c/m = 90 km/h

- The mass of command = m

- The mass of motor = 4m

Find:-

What is the speed of the command module relative to Earth just after the separation?

Solution:-

- Consider the space vehicle as a system that detaches itself into two parts ( command and motor ). We will assume that the gravitational pull due to Earth on the space vehicle is negligible. With that assumption we have our system in isolation. We will apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum on the system as follows:

Initial momentum = Final momentum

Pi = Pf

M*vs_e = m*vc_e + 4m*vm_e

Where,

M = m + 4m = 5m

vc_e = Velocity of command relative to earth

vm_e = Velocity of motor relative to earth

- We will develop a relation of velocities of command and motor in the frame of earth as follows:

vm_e = v_c/m + vc_e

- Substituting (vm_e) from Equation 2 into Equation 1, we have:

5m*vs_e = m*vc_e + 4m*(v_c/m + vc_e)

5m*vs_e = 5m*vc_e + 4m*(v_c/m)

- Solve for vc_e:

5m*vs_e - 4m*(v_c/m) = 5m*vc_e

vs_e - 0.8*(v_c/m) = vc_e

- Plug in values and evaluate vc_e:

vc_e = 3760 - 0.8*(90)

vc_e = 3,688 km/h

While playing her guitar , karen plucks one string with increasing levels of force. What effect does this have on the sound prod

Lena [83]

Answer:

The amplitude of vibration of string will increase due to which loudness of sound will increase

Explanation:

As we know that the guitar is based on the principle of Resonance. When string of the guitar vibrates at a given frequency then the sound produced in the hollow part of the guitar will also be at same frequency.

This is known as resonance condition, so guitar will produce same frequency sound as that of frequency of string.

Now if the string is plucked with increasing level of force then it will increase the amplitude of vibrations of the string due to which the sound produced in the guitar will also be of same level.

So here we can say that amplitude and intensity of sound related as

$I = kA^2$

so on increasing amplitude the intensity will increase and hence it will produce loud sound

Plants cause weathering, too. a seed that falls into a crack in a rock may grow there. growing roots may push on and enlarge the

Helga [31]

The process which involves plants to cause weathering to a seed that falls into a crack in a rock therefore, breaking apart the rock is called Mechanical weathering.

<h3>Mechanical weathering</h3>

This is defined as the set of weathering processes that break apart rocks into particles (sediment) through physical processes. The most common form of mechanical weathering is the freeze-thaw cycle. Water seeps into holes and cracks in rocks then the water freezes and expands, therefore making the holes larger eventually making the rock split apart.
