How should you approach a dock when the wind or current is pushing you away from the dock?

Physics
1 answer:
erastova [34]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

If the wind is offshore (blowing away from the dock), one should carefully approach the dock at a 20 to 30 degree angle. A bow line is then passed ashore and secured. In boats having an outboard, or inboard/outboard engine, the engine is turned towards the dock and put in reverse. This invariably will bring the stern into the dock.

Which of the following is a fundamental quantity?
Yuki888 [10]

-- Volume . . . made out of 3 dimensions of length

-- Density . . . made out of mass, and 3 dimensions of length

-- Area . . . made out of 2 dimensions of length

-- Acceleration . . . made out of length and time

<em>Mass</em> is not made out of anything else.  It's fundamental.  A few other fundamental things are length, time, and electric charge.

Review. One electron collides elastically with a second electron initially at rest. After the collision, the radii of their traj
DochEvi [55]

The energy of the incident electron in keV is 5.51× 10—²² keV.

Capacity or ability to do work is termed energy. Energy exists in various forms. It can be in the form of mechanical, potential, thermal, kinetic, and many other forms. Joules is the SI of the energy. The potential energy of a system is defined as the energy stored due to its position. While kinetic energy is defined as the energy

stored due to its position.

Radius1 of the trajectory = 1.00 cm

Radius2 of the trajectory = 2.4 0 cm

The magnitude of the uniform magnetic field = 0.0440 T

A Uniform magnetic field is perpendicular to the trajectories.

The velocity of the incident electron is,

v =  \frac{eBR}{m}

The energy of the incident electron is,

K =  \frac{1}{2} mv ^{2}

K =  \frac{1}{2} \frac{(eBR)}{m}^{2}

The energy in keV is,

1-kilo electron volt = 1000 electron volts

1 keV = 1000 eV

1 \: eV =  \frac{1}{1000} \:  keV

= \frac{ K}{1000}

=  \frac{eB ^{2} R ^{2} }{2000m}

= 5.51 \times 10 ^{ - 22}  \: keV

Therefore, the energy of the incident electron in keV is 5.51× 10—²² keV.

Is it possible for you to take a hike and have the distance you cover be equal to the magnitude of your displacement?
kow [346]

Distance can be equal to displacement ... if the motion is all in a straight line ... but distance can never be greater than displacement.
