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

A current exists whenever electric charges move. If ΔQ is the net charge that passes through a surface during a time period Δt,
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

It represents the change in charge Q from time t = a to t = b

Explanation:

As given in the question the current is defined as the derivative of charge.

                                  I(t) = dQ(t)/dt ..... (i)

But if we take the inegral of the equation (i) for the time interval  from t=a to

t =b we get

                                   Q =∫_a^b▒〖I(t)  〗 dt

which shows the change in charge Q from time t = a to t = b. Form here we can say that, change in charge is defiend as the integral of current for specific interval of time.

determine the loudness (in decibels) of the sound at a rock concert if the intensity of the sound is 1 x 10–1 w/m2. remember, th
EleoNora [17]

The loudness of the sound at the rock concert, where the intensity of the sound is1 x 10⁻¹ Wm⁻² is  110 dB.

Here we are dealing with loudness which is the perception of the Intensity of the sound.

The formula  to refer to in order  to  find the value of the loudness of a sound is ,

  db= 10log(I/I₀)

As we are provided with the current intensity which is  1 x 10⁻¹ Wm⁻². and the initial intensity which is  1 x 10⁻¹² Wm⁻².

So, by substituting the required values in the formula we get

db= 10 * log( 1 x 10⁻¹ /1 x 10⁻¹²)

 = 10 * 11 log(10)

 = 110

So, the result is 110 dB.

What is the ideal banking angle for a gentle turn of 1.20-km radius on a highway with a 105 km/h speed limit (about 65 mi/h), as
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

4.14°

Explanation:

given:

r = 1.2 km

v = 105 km/h

1) <em>convert your given </em>

a) r = 1.2 km to m = 1200m

b) v = 105 km/h  to m/s = 29.2 m/s

2) <em>plug into your ideal banking angle equation</em>

tan^-1(\frac{v^2}{rg}) = \frac{29.2^2}{(1200)(9.8)} = 4.14°

If a car has a momentum of 2.04 x 104 kgm/s and a velocity of 18 m/s, what is its mass?
muminat

Answer:

Mass = 1133.33 kg (Approx.)

Explanation:

Given:

Momentum = 2.04 x 10⁴ kg[m/s]

Velocity = 18 m/s

Find:

Mass

Computation:

Mass = Momentum / Velocity

Mass = [2.04 x 10⁴] / 18

Mass = 1133.33 kg (Approx.)

When the Sun is slightly below the horizon, its light moves from less dense air to more dense air and gets refracted towards the normal. Because of this atmospheric refraction, the Sun appears to be above the horizon when it is actually slightly below the horizon.
