A cruise ship sails due south at 2.50 m/s while a coast guard patrol boat heads 19.0° north of west at 4.80 m/s. What are the x-
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall represent the velocity of cruise ship and coast guard petrol boat in vector form .

velocity of cruise ship

Vcs = - 2.5 j

Vpb =  - 4.8 cos 19 i + 4.8 sin 19 j = - 4.54 i + 1.56 j

velocity of the cruise ship relative to the patrol boat

= Vcs - Vpb

=  - 2.5 j - ( - 4.54 i + 1.56 j  )

=  - 2.5 j  +  4.54 i -   1.56 j  

= 2.04 i - 1.56 j .

x-component of the velocity of the cruise ship relative to the patrol boat

= 2.04 m /s

y-component of the velocity of the cruise ship relative to the patrol boat

= - 1.56 m /s .

If a force does a positive amount of work on an object, does the object's speed
Alexxandr [17]

The speed of the object increases

Explanation:

We can answer this question by applying the work-energy theorem, which states that the work done on an object is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the object. Mathematically:

W=K_f -K_i= \frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}mu^2

where

W is the work done on the object

K_f, K_i are the final and initial kinetic energy of the object, respectively

m is the mass of the object

v is its final speed

u is its initial speed

In this case, the force does a positive amount of work on the object, so

W>0

This also implies that

K_f > K_i

And so

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 > \frac{1}{2}mu^2

And therefore

v>u

which means that the speed of the object increases.

In order to sail through the frozen Arctic Ocean, the most powerful icebreaker ever built was constructed in the former Soviet U
professor190 [17]

Answer:

955.36 seconds ≈ 16 minutes

Explanation:

Power(P) is the rate of doing work(W)

That is, P = W/t, where t is the time.

multipying both sides with 't' and dividing with 'P', we get: t=W/P

Here, W = 5.35 x 10^10 J and P = 5.6 x 10^7 W ( 1 W = 1 J/s).

Therefore , on dividing W with P, we get 955.36 seconds.

a runner covers the last straigjt stretch of a race in 4 s. during that time, he speeds up from 5m/s to 9m/s.
PtichkaEL [24]

During that final period of time,
his acceleration is
                                (9 m/s - 5 m/s) / (4 sec) = 1 m/s² .
