a stream flows with a speed of 3.0 meters per second relative to the shore. A kayaker paddles Downstream with the speed of 1.5 m

eters per second relative to the stream. What is the kayaker speed relative to the shore

Since the kayakers speed is 1.5 meters per second relative to the stream, the kayakers velocity in meters per second relative to the shore should be its speed relative to the stream plus the stream's velocity relative to the shore. This is 1.5m/s + 3.0m/s which is equal to 4.5 meters per second (m/s).

Why does a shirt appear white outside on a sunny day?
Maru [420]
The shirt absorbs the sunlight, so it appears white. All the light is reflected, so the shirt appears white. The sunlight refracts when it hits the shirt, so the shirt appears white.

Compare the current in the 8-ohm resistors to the current in the 4-ohm resistors.
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

a)   i₈ = 0.5 i₄,  b)   i₁₀ = 0.3 i₃,    i₁₀ = 0.8 i₈

Explanation:

For this exercise we use ohm's law

       V = i R

        i = V / R

we assume that the applied voltage is the same in all cases

let's find the current for each resistance

         

R = 4 Ω

         i₄ = V / 4

R = 8 Ω

         i₈ = V / 8

we look for the relationship between these two currents

         i₈ /i₄ = 4/8 = ½

         i₈ = 0.5 i₄

R = 3 Ω

        i₃ = V3

R = 10 Ω

         

        i₁₀ = V / 10

   

we look for relationships

       i₁₀ / 1₃ = 3/10

       i₁₀ = 0.3 i₃

       i₁₀ / 1₈ = 8/10

       i₁₀ = 0.8 i₈

A force on a particle depends on position such that F(x) = (3.00 N/m2)x2 + (6.00 N/m)x for a particle constrained to move along
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

The work done by a particle from x = 0 to x = 2 m is 20 J.

Explanation:

A force on a particle depends on position constrained to move along the x-axis, is given by,

F(x)=(3\ N/m^2)x^2+(6\ N/m)x

We need to find the work done on a particle that moves from x = 0.00 m to x = 2.00 m.

We know that the work done by a particle is given by the formula as follows :

W=\int\limits {F{\cdot} dx}

W=\int\limits^2_0 {(3x^2+6x){\cdot} dx} \\\\W={(x^3}+3x^2)_0^2\\\\\W={(2^3}+3(2)^2)\\\\W=20\ J

So, the work done by a particle from x = 0 to x = 2 m is 20 J. Hence, this is the required solution.
