Answer:
Velocity=1.1m/s
Amplitude=0.35m
Explanation:
Given:
time 't' = 2.9s
wavelength 'λ'= 5.5m
distance 'd'=0.7m
The time period 't' is the time b/w two successive waves. Therefore, the time it takes from the boat to travel from its highest point to its lowest is a half period.
So, T = 2 x 2.9 => 5.8 s
As we know that frequency is the reciprocal of time period, we have
f= 1/T = 1/5.8 =>0.2 Hz
In order to find how fast are the waves traveling, the velocity is given by
Velocity = f λ
V= 0.2 x 5.5 =>1.1m/s
The distance between the boat's highest point to its lowest point is double the amplitude.
Therefore , we can write
Amplitude 'A'= d/2 =>0.7/2 =>0.35m
Explanation:
Archimedes' principle states that the upward buoyant force which is exerted on body when immersed whether fully submerged or partially in the fluid is equal to weight of fluid which body displaces and this force acts in upward direction at center of mass of displaced fluid.
Thus,
<u>Weight of the displaced fluid = Weight of the object - Weight of object in fluid.</u>
Answer:
3.64×10⁸ m
3.34×10⁻³ m/s²
Explanation:
Let's define some variables:
M₁ = mass of the Earth
r₁ = r = distance from the Earth's center
M₂ = mass of the moon
r₂ = d − r = distance from the moon's center
d = distance between the Earth and the moon
When the gravitational fields become equal:
GM₁m / r₁² = GM₂m / r₂²
M₁ / r₁² = M₂ / r₂²
M₁ / r² = M₂ / (d − r)²
M₁ / r² = M₂ / (d² − 2dr + r²)
M₁ (d² − 2dr + r²) = M₂ r²
M₁d² − 2dM₁ r + M₁ r² = M₂ r²
M₁d² − 2dM₁ r + (M₁ − M₂) r² = 0
d² − 2d r + (1 − M₂/M₁) r² = 0
Solving with quadratic formula:
r = [ 2d ± √(4d² − 4 (1 − M₂/M₁) d²) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)
r = [ 2d ± 2d√(1 − (1 − M₂/M₁)) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)
r = [ 2d ± 2d√(1 − 1 + M₂/M₁) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)
r = [ 2d ± 2d√(M₂/M₁) ] / 2 (1 − M₂/M₁)
When we plug in the values, we get:
r = 3.64×10⁸ m
If the moon wasn't there, the acceleration due to Earth's gravity would be:
g = GM / r²
g = (6.672×10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²) (5.98×10²⁴ kg) / (3.64×10⁸ m)²
g = 3.34×10⁻³ m/s²
Answer:
gravity.
Explanation:
it's almost impossible to make a sharp turn. if there is a sharp turn, the laws of gravity causes the passengers to lean 2 one side..
