Increasing the mass of an object increases its momentum.

Explanation:

Momentum of an object is measured as the quantity of motion done by the object.
It is calculated using the formula, p = m × v where m is mass of the object and v is the velocity of the object.
As momentum and mass vary proportionally, as seen in the formula, increasing the mass of an object will also increase its momentum.

A river flows due east at 1.70 m/s. A boat crosses the river from the south shore to the north shore by maintaining a constant v

ad-work [718]

Answer:

v = 14.1028 m/s

∅ = 83.0765° north of east

the required distance is 40.98 m

Explanation:

Given that;

velocity of the river u = 1.70 m/s

velocity of boat v = 14.0 m/s

Now to get the velocity of the boat relative to shore;

( north of east), we say

a² + b² = c²

(1.70)² + (14.0)² = c²

2.89 + 196 = c²

198.89 = c²

c = √198.89

c = 14.1028 m/s

tan∅ = v/u = 14 / 1.7 = 8.23529

∅ = tan⁻¹ ( 8.23529 ) = 83.0765° north of east

Therefore, the velocity of the boat relative to shore is;

v = 14.1028 m/s

∅ = 83.0765° north of east

width of river = 340 m,

ow far downstream has the boat moved by the time it reaches the north shore in meters = ?

we say;

340sin( 90° - 83.0765°)

⇒ 340sin( 6.9235°)

= 40.98 m

Therefore, the required distance is 40.98 m

A sealed tank containing seawater to a height of 10.5 mm also contains air above the water at a gauge pressure of 2.95 atmatm. W

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

The water is flowing at the rate of 28.04 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

Height of sea water, z₁ = 10.5 m

gauge pressure, $P_{gauge \ pressure}$ = 2.95 atm

Atmospheric pressure, $P_{atm}$ = 101325 Pa

To determine the speed of the water, apply Bernoulli's equation;

$P_1 + \rho gz_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = P_2 + \rho gz_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2$

where;

P₁ = $P_{gauge \ pressure} + P_{atm \ pressure}$

P₂ = $P_{atm}$

v₁ = 0

z₂ = 0

Substitute in these values and the Bernoulli's equation will reduce to;

$P_1 + \rho gz_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = P_2 + \rho gz_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2\\\\P_1 + \rho gz_1 + \frac{1}{2}\rho (0)^2 = P_2 + \rho g(0) + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2\\\\P_1 + \rho gz_1 = P_2 + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2\\\\P_{gauge} + P_{atm} + \rho gz_1 = P_{atm} + \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2\\\\P_{gauge} + \rho gz_1 = \frac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2\\\\v_2^2 = \frac{2(P_{gauge} + \rho gz_1)}{\rho} \\\\v_2 = \sqrt{ \frac{2(P_{gauge} + \rho gz_1)}{\rho} }$

where;

$\rho$ is the density of seawater = 1030 kg/m³

$v_2 = \sqrt{ \frac{2(2.95*101325 \ + \ 1030*9.8*10.5 )}{1030} }\\\\v_2 = 28.04 \ m/s$

Therefore, the water is flowing at the rate of 28.04 m/s.
