Answer:

Bow Line

Explanation:

If the wind or current is pushing your boat away from the dock, bow line should be secured first.

1- We should cast off the bow and stern lines.

2-With the help of an oar or boat hook, keep the boat clear of the dock.

3-Leave the boat on its own for sometime and let the wind or current carry the boat away from the dock.

4 - As you see there is sufficient clearance, shift into forward gear and slowly leave the area.

A ball is thrown vertically upward.

irakobra [83]

Answer:

a. Positive and decreasing

b. 0

c. -9.81 m/s2

d. -9.81 m/s2

e. -9.81 m/s2

Explanation:

a. Since there's a constant gravitational acceleration acting downward, an upward velocity would decrease over time, until it reaches 0 at it's maximum altitude.

b. It's 0 at maximum altitude as it's no longer progressing upward. Otherwise it wouldn't be a maximum altitude.

c. d. and e. Doesn't matter where the ball is, it'd be always subjected to a constant gravitational acceleration, which is 9.81 m/s2/

A 0.075 kg ball in a kinetic sculpture is raised 1.33 m above the ground by a motorized vertical conveyor belt. A constant frict

irinina [24]

Answer : The total work done in raising the ball is, 0.98 J

Explanation : Given,

Mass of the ball = 0.075 kg

Height raised of the ball = 1.33 m

As we know that the object is moving with the constant velocity, that means the work done against the gravity will be the net-work done.

So, the work done will be:

$w=mgh$

where,

w = work done

m = mass of ball

h = height of ball

g = acceleration due of gravity = $9.8m/s^2$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$w=(0.075kg)\times (9.8m/s^2)\times (1.33m)$

$w=0.97755J=0.98J$

Thus, the total work done in raising the ball is, 0.98 J
