A boat crossing a 153.0 m wide river is directed so that it will cross the river as quickly as possible. The boat has a speed of

5.70 m/s in still water and the river flows uniformly at 4.90 m/s. Calculate the total distance the boat will travel to reach the opposite shore.

Answer:

201.76266192 m

Explanation:

Distance traveled in the horizontal direction = 153 m

In the vertical direction the distance traveled

\dfrac{4.9\times 153}{5.7}=131.526315789\ m

Total distance from pythagoras theorem

d=\sqrt{153^2+(\dfrac{4.9\times 153}{5.7})^2}\\\Rightarrow d=201.76266192\ m

The total distance the boat will travel to reach the opposite shore is 201.76266192 m

solong [7]

Answer:

Opposite sides are congruent (AB = DC).

Opposite angels are congruent (D = B).

Consecutive angles are supplementary (A + D = 180°).

If one angle is right, then all angles are right.

The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.

Each diagonal of a parallelogram separates it into two congruent triangles.

The position of a dragonfly that is flying parallel to the ground is given as a function of time by r⃗ =[2.90m+(0.0900m/s2)t2]i^
Arlecino [84]

The solution for this problem is:

 
r = [(2.90 + 0.0900t²) i - 0.0150t³ j] m/s² 
this is for t in seconds and r in meters 

v = dr/dt = [0.180t i - 0.0450t² j] m/s² 

tan(-36.0º) = -0.0450t² / 0.180t 
0.7265 = 0.25t 
t = 2.91 s is the velocity vector of the insect

What happens to the movement of particles in a liquid when it is heated?
Yanka [14]

Answer:

When heat is added to a substance, the molecules and atoms vibrate faster. As atoms vibrate faster, the space between atoms increases. The motion and spacing of the particles determines the state of matter of the substance. The end result of increased molecular motion is that the object expands and takes up more space.
