Answer:

5558643.69 N

Explanation:

F = Force

v = Velocity = 31.5 knots

Converting to m/s

1\ knot=0.514\ m/s

31.5\ knot=31.5\times 0.514\ m/s=16.191\ m/s

Power is given by

P=Fv\\\Rightarrow F=\frac{P}{v}\\\Rightarrow F=\frac{90\times 10^6}{16.191}\\\Rightarrow F=5558643.69\ N

The forward force is exerted on the ship at this highest attainable speed is 5558643.69 N

PLEASE ANSWER-Why are loose electrons needed for heat conduction?
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Why do metals conduct heat so well? The electrons in metal are delocalised electrons and are free moving electrons so when they gain energy (heat) they vibrate more quickly and can move around, this means that they can pass on the energy more quickly.

The magnitude of a force vector is 89.6 newtons (N). The x component of this vector is directed along the +x axis and has a magn
insens350 [35]

Answer:

(a) θ = 33.86°

(b) Ay = 49.92 N

Explanation:

You have that the magnitude of a vector is A = 89.6 N

The x component of such a vector is Ax = 74.4 N

(a) To find the angle between the vector and the x axis you use the following formula for the calculation of the x component of a vector:

A_x=Acos\theta       (1)

Ax: x component of vector A

A: magnitude of vector A

θ: angle between vector A and the x axis

You solve the equation (1) for θ, by using the inverse of cosine function:

\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac{A_x}{A})=cos{-1}(\frac{74.4N}{89.6N})\\\\\theta=33.86\°

the angle between the A vector and the x axis is 33.86°

(b) The y component of the vector is given by:

A_y=Asin\theta\\\\A_y=(89.6N)sin(33.86\°)=49.92N

the y comonent of the vecor is Ay = 49.92 N

<span>The proper </span><span>battery cable connection when jumping two automotive batteries is :  </span><span>(a) negative to negative / positive to positive. 

</span><span>Connect the red (positive) cable from the car with the bad battery to the red (positive) on the good battery. </span>

<span>Then connect the black (negative) from the good battery to a grounding point on the other car which should be tightened and metal should be clean.
</span>
<span>Once the car with bad battery has started, the removal of the cable should be in the opposite order. The Red (positive) which was the the First Cable to go on should be the last cable to be taken off.</span>
