Two tugboats pull a disabled supertanker. Each tug exerts a constant force of 1.60×106 N, one at an angle 13.0 west of north, an

d the other at an angle 13.0 east of north, as they pull the tanker a distance 0.700 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:W=1.93\times 10^9 J      

Explanation:

Given

Force F=1.6\times 10^{6} N

one at an angle of 13^{\circ} East of North and another at 13^{\circ} West of North

Net Force is in North Direction

F_{net}=2F\cos 13

Forces in horizontal direction will cancel out each other

thus Work done will be by north direction forces  

W=2F\cdot \cos 30\cdot s

here s=0.7 km

W=2\times 1.6\times 10^{6}\cdot \cos 30\cdot 700

W=1.93\times 10^9 J

What happens to the amplitude of the resultant wave when two sound waves with equal amplitude constructively interfere?
Alik [6]

Answer:

For two waves of equal amplitude interfering constructively, the resulting amplitude is twice as large as the amplitude of an individual wave. For 100 waves of the same amplitude interfering constructively, the resulting amplitude is 100 times larger than the amplitude of an individual wave.

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

C. Talk test

Explanation:

The talk test would be readily available to me at the the least cost.

The talk test is about the easiest way that one can monitor intensity as they exercise. Because the only thing needed here is the ability to talk and to breathe.

The intensity lies on if one can talk and breathe at the same time. The harder one exercises, the more breathless they become and they find it difficult to talk.

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

bobby has a greater magnitude of velocity because because when angular speed is constant linear velocity is proportional to radius of the circular path

B. They both have same magnitude of angular velocity since the angular speed of the merrygoround is constant

C. Also they both have the same tangential acceleration because the angular speed is constant and tangential is zero for both of them

D. Centripetal acceleration of Bobby is greater

E.they both have the same angular acceleration because angular Speed I constant so angular acceleration is zero for both
