Answer:
D) equal to the flux of electric field through the Gaussian surface B.
Explanation:
Flux through S(A) = Flux through S (B ) = Charge inside/ ∈₀
In this item, we let x be the rate of the boat in still water and y be the rate of the current.
Upstream. When the boat is going upstream, the speed in still water is deducted by the speed of the current because the boat goes against the water. The distance covered is calculated by multiplying the number of hours and the speed.
(x - y)(3) = 144
Downstream. The speed of the boat going downstream is equal to x + y because the boat goes with the current.
(x + y)(2) = 144
The system of linear equations we can use to solve for x is,
3x - 3y = 144
2x + 2y = 144
We use either elimination or substitution.
We solve for the y of the first equation in terms of x,
y = -(144 - 3x)/3
Substitute this to the second equation,
2x + 2(-1)(144 - 3x)/3 = 144
The value of x from the equation is 60
