Answer:
Speed of river is 0.45 m/s
Speed of boat is 2.65 m/s
Explanation:
= Speed of river
= Speed of canoe


Adding the equations we get


Speed of river is 0.45 m/s
Speed of boat is 2.65 m/s
Answer:
Explanation:
There's a formula for this:

F being force, k being the spring constant, and displacement being the change in x
We are given the force and the spring constant, so this is essentially isolating the Δx term. Do 60N/120N per meter. The newtons cancel out and you get a final answer of Δx = 0.5 meters
Answer:
10.4 m/s
Explanation:
The problem can be solved by using the following SUVAT equation:

where
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
a is the acceleration
t is the time
For the diver in the problem, we have:
is the initial velocity (positive because it is upward)
is the acceleration of gravity (negative because it is downward)
By substituting t = 1.7 s, we find the velocity when the diver reaches the water:

And the negative sign means that the direction is downward: so, the speed is 10.4 m/s.
I would believe that this is false.
