A river flows due east with a speed of 3.00 m/s relative to earth. The river is 80.0 m wide. A woman starts at the southern bank

and steers a motorboat across the river; her velocity relative to the water is 5.00 m/s due north. How far east of her starting point will she reach the opposite bank?

Answer:

48 m

Explanation:

As she travels at the rate of 5m/s due north, the amount of time it would take for her to cross the 80m wide river would be

t = 80 / 5 = 16 seconds

This is also the time it takes for the river to push her to the east side at the rate of 3m/s. So after 16 seconds, she would reach the opposite point at a horizontal distance from her starting of

s = 16*3 = 48 m

For an object moving with constant negative acceleration, draw the following:
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

Kindly find the graphs attached

Explanation:

For figure 1: There is a steady increase in the position of the object as time increases. This is because despite the negative acceleration (deceleration), the object continues to move and cover more ground as time goes by.

<em>The straight line graph is observed because the acceleration is constant  and not varying.</em>

For Figure 2: The graph of velocity vs time will have an inverted nature. This is because since the object is decelerating, it is reducing in its velocity as time goes by (increases). <em>This is also in a straight line since the deceleration is constant.</em>

What formula gives the strength of an electric field, E, at a distance from a known source charge?
Deffense [45]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: Coulomb's law equation.

<h2>Why?</h2>

The Coulomb's law states that the strength of an electric field (between two charges) can be calculated by multiplying their charges and dividing it into the square of the distance between their centers.

E=\frac{k*q*Q}{d^{2} }

Where:

E = Electric Field Strenght

k=9.0*10^{9}  \frac{N.m^{2} }{C^{2} }

q=TestCharge\\Q=SourceCharge\\

d = separation between charges (m)

Have a nice day!
