Answer:

4.02 km/hr

Explanation:

5 km/hr = 1.39 m/s

The swimmer's speed relative to the ground must have the same direction as line AC.

The vertical component of the velocity is:

uᵧ = us cos 45

uᵧ = √2/2 us

The horizontal component of the velocity is:

uₓ = 1.39 − us sin 45

uₓ = 1.39 − √2/2 us

Writing a proportion:

uₓ / uᵧ = 121 / 159

(1.39 − √2/2 us) / (√2/2 us) = 121 / 159

Cross multiply and solve:

159 (1.39 − √2/2 us) = 121 (√2/2 us)

220.8 − 79.5√2 us = 60.5√2 us

220.8 = 140√2 us

us = 1.115

The swimmer's speed is 1.115 m/s, or 4.02 km/hr.

1.)A tank travels at a rate of 10.0 km/hr for 12.00 minutes, then at 15.0 km/hr for 8.00
rosijanka [135]

12.00 min = 0.2 hr

8.00 min = 0.15 hr

Total distance:

(10.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr) + (15.0 km/hr) (0.15 hr) + (20.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr)

= 8.25 km

Average speed:

(10.0 km/hr + 15.0 km/hr + 20.0 km/hr) / 3

= 15 km/hr

Change in position:

(10.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr) + (15.0 km/hr) (0.15 hr) - (20.0 km/hr) (0.2 hr)

= 0.25 km

Average velocity:

(10.0 km/hr + 15.0 km/hr - 20.0 km/hr) / 3

≈ 1.67 m/s

If a piece of iron is placed in pure nitrogen, nothing happens. If the in is exposed to air, it begins to rust. What conclusion
kari74 [83]
Based on this, you can tell that Iron(Fe) does not react with Nitrogen(N), but does with something in normal air. The element the Iron is reacting with Oxygen(O), and the compound that is formed is called iron oxide.

A 280-m-wide river flows due east at a uniform speed of 4.7m/s. A boat with a speed of 7.1m/s relative to the water leaves the s
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

(a) The speed is 7.96 m/s

(b) The direction is 76 degree from positive X axis in counter clockwise direction.  

Explanation:

Width of river = 280 m

speed of river, vR = 4.7 m/s towards east

speed of boat with respect to water, v(B,R) = 7.1 m/s at 26 degree west of north

vR = 4.7 i \\\\v(B,R) = 7.1 (- sin 26 i + cos 26 j) = - 3.1 i + 6.4 j

(a) The velocity of boat with respect to ground is

\overrightarrow{v}_{(B,R)}=\overrightarrow{v}_{(B,G)}-\overrightarrow{v}_{(R,G)}\\\\- 3.1 \widehat{i} +6.4 \widehat{j}=\overrightarrow{v}_{(B,G)} - 4.7 \widehat{i}\\\\\overrightarrow{v}_{(B,G)} = 1.6 \widehat{i} + 6.4 \widehat{j}\\\\{v}_{(B,G)} = \sqrt{1.6^2 + 6.4^2}=6.96 m/s

(b) The direction is given  by

tan\theta = \frac{6.4}{1.6} =4\\\\\theta = 76^o
