A child is in danger of drowning in the Merimac river. The Merimac river has a current of 3.1 km/hr to the east. The child is 0.

6 km from the shore and 2.5 km upstream from the dock. A rescue boat with speed 24.8 km/hr (with respect to the water) sets off from the dock at the optimum angle to reach the child as fast as possible. How far from the dock does the boat reach the child?

In a problem where a child is danger form drowning from a river who has a current of 3.1km/hr to east and the child is 0.6km fro the shore and the upstream is 2,5km from the dock. So base on the question the boat with a speed of 24.8 km/hr is 1.9 km because the child is 0.6 km off the dock so 2.5 minus 0.6

If the net external force acting on a system is zero , then the total momentum of the system is zero
Neporo4naja [7]
If net external force acting on the system is zero, momentum is conserved. That means, initial and final momentum are same → total momentum of the system is zero.

What is the density of a 150cm 3 block with a mass of 700 grams?
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

The Density of the block is 4.667g/mL

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass of block = 700g

Volume of block = 150cm³

Density = ?

Density can be defined as mass all over the volume of an object.

Simply stated, density is mass per unit volume of an object.

Mathematically, density is given by the equation;

Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Density = \frac{700}{150}

<em>Density = 4.667g/mL</em>

Which statements describe kinetic and potential energy? Check all that apply.
Maru [420]

Answer:

First option, third option, fourth option, and the fifth option.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is energy an object has when it's motion, the greater the speed the greater the kinetic energy. For example, a car moving and increasing in speed is kinetic energy since the object is in motion. If the car stops and parks in a parking lot that is potential energy. Potential energy is the amount of energy an object has when it's at rest or not in motion.

So, the answer for this question is as followed first option or "energy can be stored in the position of an object." Third option or "Energy can be stored in the position of the particles that make up a substance." Fourth option or "Energy exists as movement of the particles of a substance." The last answer will be the fifth option or "Energy is greater in faster-moving particles than in slower-moving particles."

Hope this helps.
