Two tugboats pull a disabled supertanker. Each tug exerts a constant force of 2.20×106 N , one at an angle 19.0 ∘ west of north,

and the other at an angle 19.0 ∘ east of north, as they pull the tanker a distance 0.720 km toward the north.What is the total work done by the two tugboats on the supertanker?Express your answer in joules, to three significant figures.

Answer:

=2.99\times10^9J

Explanation:

According to the question

net force F = 2.20×10^6 N

displacement S = 0.72\times10^3m

from figure , the horizontal forces are same in magnitude and opposite direction.

so , neglect these two forces.

we can take only vertical components of the force.

total force F' = F cos 19° + F cos 19°

= 2×F×cos 19°   ................. (1

therefore , total work is

W = F'S

= (2F cos19)×S

= (2)(2.20\times10^6 N)cos19° (0.720\times10^3 m)

=2.99\times10^9J

What is the most significant challenge for organisms that live in estuaries?
marysya [2.9K]

"Changing water salinity" is the most significant challenge for organisms that live in estuaries.

<u>Answer:</u> Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

For estuaries, alkalinity levels are usually the maximum at a river's mouth where the ocean water falls for, and the minimum upstream where freshwater falls in. Although salinity vary throughout the tidal cycle. In estuaries, salinity rates usually decrease in spring as snow melt and rain raises the freshwater flow from streams and groundwater.

It influences the chemical environments within the estuary, especially the dissolved oxygen (DO) levels in the water. The level of oxygen that would get dissolved in water or its solubility get declined when the alkalinity rises.

<u> Ohms law: </u> This law relates voltage difference between two points. Mathematically, the law states that V=IR;

                Where

                          V = voltage difference ; in volts

                          I = Current ; in Amperes

                          R = Resistance ; in ohms

<u>1. Answer : </u> given that R = 10 ; V= 12 V ;  I = ?

From ohms law,    I = V/R

                                = 12/10

                                = 1.2 Amp.

<u>2. Answer:</u>  given that R = 10 ; V= ? ;  I = 5

From ohms law,    V = IR

                                 = 10×5 = 50 V

<u>3 . Answer:</u>  given that R = ? ; V= 120 ;  I = 5

From ohms law,    R =  V/I

                                 = 120/5

                                 = 24 Ω

<u>4 . Answer:</u>  given that R = ? ; V= 10 ;  I = 20

From ohms law,    R =  V/I

                                 = 10/20

                                 = 0.5 Ω

<u>5 . Answer:</u>  given that R = 480 ; V= 24 ;  I = ?

From ohms law,  I =  V/R

                              = 24/480

                              = 0.05 A

<u>6. Answer:</u>  given that R = 150 ; V= ? ;  I = 1

From ohms law,  V = IR

                               = 1 × 150

                               = 150 V

During a lab investigation, students added four 50 g masses to two boxes and arranged the boxes so that they were motionless on
IceJOKER [234]

When the resultant force is not equal to zero termed an unbalanced force. By procedures 4 and 5 students observe an unbalanced upward force on Box 1. Hence option 1 is right for the problem.

<h3>What is an unbalanced force?</h3>

The forces operating on a body are known as unbalanced forces when the resulting force exerted on it is not equal to zero.

Unbalanced forces acting on the body, causing it to modify its state of motion. To further grasp the nature of imbalanced forces.

<h3 />

The following reasons by which we can understand the unbalanced force caused by the box.

Due to these two reasons, books will move up.

By adding another mass to box 2. The box becomes lighter. As the box becomes lighter the gravity force acting on the box will be less due to which the box easily can move up.

By removing the two masses from box 1. Due to which other become heavier other becomes heavier pulling it down causing box 1 one to go up.

Hence by procedures 4 and 5 students observe an unbalanced upward force on Box 1. Hence option 1 is right for the problem.

To learn more about the unbalanced force refer to the link;

Name one similarity and one difference between a set and a bump in volleyball??
kotykmax [81]
Bump: Bumping the ball means a player uses their forearms to pass the ball to a teammate or to hit the ball back over the net to the other team. Set: Setting the ball means a player positions the ball in a way that lets a teammate spike it over the net.
