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.

I hate life do u know why
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Most of us have experienced that pivotal peak of pain, anger or frustration in which we want to scream “I hate my life.” Yet, the feeling that a dark cloud has specifically settled over us and our experiences can feel pretty isolating. The truth is, no matter how singled out or overwhelmed we feel, and no matter what area we are struggling in, we are not alone.  More than half of U.S. workers are unhappy with their job.  One in 10 Americans struggles with depression. All of us have moments of utter despair. Escaping from this hopeless-seeming state may feel impossible. Yet, in reality, we are not doomed, and we are not powerless.  No matter what our circumstances, we can all learn tools to help us emerge from the darkest moments in our lives.

Two objects attract each other gravitationally. If the distance between their centers decreases by a factor of 2, how does the g
kramer

Answer:

The gravitational force between them increases by a factor of 4

Explanation:

Gravitational force is a force of attraction between two objects with masses M and m which are separated by a distance R. It is given mathematically as:

Fg = GMm/R²

Where G = Gravitational constant.

If the distance between their centers, R, decreases by a factor of 2, then it means the new distance between their centers is:

r = R/2

Hence,the gravitational force becomes:

Fg = GMm/r²

Fg = GMm/(R/2)²

Fg = GMm/(R²/4)

Fg = 4GMm/R²

Hence,the gravitational force increases by a factor of 4.
