A sailboat is moving across the water at 3.0 m/s. A gust of wind fills its sails and it accelerates at a constant 2.0 m/s2. At t

he same instant, a motorboat at rest starts its engines and accelerates at 4.0 m/s2. After 3.0 seconds have elapsed, find the velocity of the sailboat.

Answer:

v = 9 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial speed of the sailboat, u = 3 m/s

Acceleration of the sailboat, a=2\ m/s^2

Initial speed of the motorboat, u = 0

Acceleration of the motorboat, a=4\ m/s^2

Time elapsed, t = 3 s

To find,

The velocity of the sailboat

Solve,

Let v is the velocity of the sailboat after 3 seconds. By using the equation of kinematics, it can be calculated.

v=u+at

v=3\ m/s+2\ m/s^2\times 3\ s

v = 9 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the sailboat is 9 m/s.

Two moles of an ideal monatomic gas are at a temperature of 345 K. Then, 2250 J of heat is added to the gas, and 870 J of work i
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer: The final temperature is 470K

Explanation: Using the relation;

Q= ΔU +W

Given, n = 2mol

Initial temperature T1= 345K

Heat =Q= 2250J

Workdone=W=-870J(work is done on gas)

T2 =Final temperature =?

ΔU =3/2nR(T2-T1)

ΔU=3/2 × 2 ×8.314 (T2 - 345)

ΔU=24.942(T2-345)

Therefore Q = 24.942(T2-345)+ (-870)

2250=24.942(T2-345)+ (-870)

125.09=(T2-345)

T2 =470K

Therfore the final temperature is 470K

What determines if a star turns into a red giant or a red supergiant?
mixer [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

As stars age, they evolve away from the main sequence to become red giants or supergiants. The core of a red giant is contracting, but the outer layers are expanding as a result of hydrogen fusion in a shell outside the core. The star gets larger, redder, and more luminous as it expands and cools.
