A motorboat traveling 4 m/s, East encounters a current traveling 3.0 m/s, North. a) What is the resultant velocity of the motorb

oat? b) If the width of the river is 80 meters wide, then how much time does it take the boat to travel shore to shore? c) What distance downstream does the boat reach the opposite shore?

Explanation:

It is given that,

Velocity in East, v_1=4\ m/s

Velocity in North, v_2=3\ m/s

(a) The resultant velocity is given by :

v=\sqrt{4^2+3^2}=5\ m/s

(b) The width of the river is, d = 80 m

Let t is the time taken by the boat to travel shore to shore. So,

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

t=\dfrac{80\ m}{5\ m/s}

t = 16 seconds

(c) Let x is the distance covered by the boat to reach the opposite shore. So,

x=v_2\times t

x=3\ m/s\times 16\ s

x = 48 meters

Hence, this is the required solution.

A force acting on a body causes a change in the momentum of the from 12 kgms-1 to 16 kgms-1 in 0.2 s. calculate the magnitude of
Nonamiya [84]

Answer: Impulse = 4 kgm/s

Explanation:

From the question, you're given the following parameters:

Momentum P1 = 12 kgm/s

Momentum P2 = 16 kgm/s

Time t = 0.2 s

According to second law of motion,

Force F = change in momentum ÷ time

That is

F = (P2 - P1)/t

Cross multiply

Ft = P2 - P1

Where Ft = impulse

Substitute P1 and P2 into the formula

Impulse = 16 - 12 = 4 kgm/s

The magnitude of the impulse is therefore 4 kgm/s.

How do two sublevels of the same principal energy level differ from each other
Colt1911 [192]

Each energy sublevel corresponds to an orbital of a different shape.

Explanation:

Two sublevels of the same principal energy level differs from each other if the sublevels corrresponds to an orbital of a different shape.

  • The principal quantum number of an atom represents the main energy level in which the orbital is located or the distance of an orbital from the nucleus. It takes values of n = 1,2,3,4 et.c
  • The secondary quantum number gives the shape of the orbitals in subshells accommodating electrons.
  • The number of possible shapes is limited  by the principal quantum numbers.

Take for example, Carbon:

                      1s² 2s² 2p²

   The second energy level is 2 but with two different sublevels of s and p. They have different shapes. S is spherical and P is dumb-bell shaped .
