1) Try to head into the waves at some slight angle and the speed of the boat should be reduced. 

2) In order to ride up and over the waves, the speed of the boat should be slow. 

3) The less the speed of the boat, and the less strain will be put on the hull and superstructure.

A person of mass m will bungee-jump from a bridge over a river where the height from the bridge to the river is h. The bungee co
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:k_{min}=\frac{18mg}{h}

Explanation:

Given

mass of person is m

Distance between bridge and river is h

chord has an un-stretched length of \frac{2h}{3}

Let spring constant be k

Person will just stop before hitting the river

Conserve energy i.e. Potential Energy of Person is converted in to elastic energy of chord

mgh=\frac{kx^2}{2}

x=h-\frac{2h}{3}=\frac{h}{3}

mgh=\frac{kh^2}{18}

k=\frac{18mg}{h}

Thus k_{min}=\frac{18mg}{h}

A 72-kg man stands on a spring scale in an elevator. Starting from rest, the elevator ascends, attaining its maximum speed of 1.
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

During the first .8 s , the elevator is under acceleration . It starts from initial velocity u = 0 , final velocity v = 1.2 m /s , time = .8 s

v = u + at

1.2 = 0 +  .8 a

a = 1.2 / .8

= 1.5 m /s²

During the acceleration in upward direction , let reaction force of ground on man be R .

Net force on man = R - mg

Applying Newton's 2 nd law

R - mg = ma

R = m ( g + a )

= 72 ( 9.8 + 1.5 )

= 813.6 N .

This reaction force will be measured by spring scale , so reading of spring scale will be 813.6 N .
