A rowboat crosses a river with a velocity of 3.30 mi/h at an angle 62.5° north of west relative to the water. the river is 0.50

5 mi wide and carries an eastward current of 1.25 mi/h. how far upstream is the boat when it reaches the opposite shore?

<u>Answer:</u>

 Rowboat arrives 0.558 miles to the upstream when it reaches the opposite shore.

<u>Explanation:</u>

   Velocity of rowboat = 3.30 mi/h

   Angle with north of west = 62.5⁰

   Width of river = 0.505 mile.

   Velocity of river = 1.25 mi/hr eastward.

Let us take east as positive X -axis and North as positive Y-axis.

   So angle of boat with horizontal axis = (90+62.5) = 152.5⁰

  Horizontal speed of boat = 3.30*cos 152.5 = -2.93 mi/h

  Vertical speed of boat = 3.30*sin 152.5 = 1.52 mi/h

  Horizontal speed of river = 1.25 mi/h

  Time taken to cross river = Width of river/Vertical speed = 0.505/1.52 = 0.33 hour.

  Velocity along upstream of river = -2.93+1.25 = -1.68 mi/hr

  So distance moved along upstream = -1.68*0.33 = -0.558 miles ( negative sign means along west direction)

  It reaches 0.558 miles to the upstream when it reaches the opposite shore.

A 94 g particle undergoes SHM with an amplitude of 8.3 mm, a maximum acceleration of magnitude 7.8 x 103 m/s2, and an unknown ph
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

a) T = 6.49*10^-3 s

b) v = 8 m/s

c) E = 3 J

d) F = 733 N

e) F = 366.5 J

Explanation:

Given

Mass of particle, m = 94 g = 0.094 kg

Amplitude of the particle, A = 8.3 mm = 8.3*10^-3 m

Maximum acceleration of particle, a = 7.8*10^3 m/s²

the equation describing Simple Harmonic Motion is given as

x = A cos (wt +φ)

To fond the acceleration of this relationship, we would have to integrate. Twice, the first would be a Velocity, and the second acceleration that we need.

Velocity = dx/dt = -Aw sin(wt + φ)

Acceleration = d²x/dt = -Aw² cos(wt + φ)

From the question, we were given, magnitude of acceleration to be 7.8*10^3 m/s²

Aw² = 7.8*10^3

w² = 7.8*10^3 / A

w² = 7.8*10^3 / 8.3*10^-3

w² = 939759

w = √939759

w = 969

Recall, T = 2π/w, so that

T = (2 * 3.142) / 969

T = 6.49*10^-3 s

Maximum speed = Aw

Maximum speed = 8.3*10^-3 * 969

Maximum speed = 8.0 m/s

Total mechanical energy oscillator =

mgx + 1/2mx² =

1/2mv(max)² =

1/2 * 0.094 * 8² =

3 J

Maximum displacement

x = A cos(wt + φ)

For x to be maximum here, then cos(wt + φ) Must be equal to 1

Acceleration = d²x/dt² = -Aw²

And force = mass * acceleration

Force = 0.094 * 7.8*10^3

Force = 733 N

x = A cos(wt + φ), where cos(wt + φ) = 1/2

d²x/dt² = -Aw² * 1/2

d²x/dt² = 733 * 0.5

= 366.5 N

1. Clara stops for 10 minutes to catch up with a friend.
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Clara has speed of 80m/min

Explanation:

Clara was jogging at 600 m in 5 minutes. She stopped suddenly which reduced her velocity and then she waited for 10 minutes so that her friends comes near her. She stopped to catch her friend. During this 10 minutes the velocity of Clara is zero. She started to walk again at a slower speed of 80m/min.

6) Repeat experiment 5) a) but now use the stored energy meter. Why do you think the change takes place. charge remains constant
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

the energy comes from the increase in the electric field

Explanation:

The capacitance is

      C = ε₀ A / d

The electric charge on the condenser plates

    Q = C ΔV

     

The stored electrical energy is

       U = ½ C ΔV²

       ΔV = E d

     U = ½ (ε₀ A / d) (E d)²

    U = ½ ε₀ A d E²

We see that the stored energy is proportional to the square of the electric field, so the capacitor can increase its energy with increasing voltage

In short, the energy comes from the increase in the electric field

If a magnet is put inside one coil of wire a voltage is produced. What will happen if the magnet is put inside two coils of wire
atroni [7]
The choices can be found elsewhere and as follows:

A)There will not be a change. 
<span>B)The voltage will decrease by a factor of two. </span>
<span>C)The voltage will increase by a factor of two. </span>
<span>D)The two coils of wire will cancel out the magnetic field. </span>
<span>E)The voltage will be zero.
</span>
I believe the answer is option C. If the magnet is put inside two coils of wire, then the  voltage will increase by a factor of two. Hope this answers the question.
