A boat is headed due north on a river that's flowing directly east. What is the general direction of travel for this boat with r

espect to the land?

Answer:

It must be moving at an angle \theta with East towards North

Explanation:

As we know that boat headed towards North while river is flowing towards East

So here the resultant velocity of boat is vector sum of velocity of river and velocity of boat.

So we will find the vector resultant as

\vec v = \vec v_b + \vec v_r

here we know

\vec v_b = velocity of boat towards North

\vec v_r = velocity of river towards East

now if we add two vectors along North and and east then the resultant must be between North and East so the boat will move at some angle \theta with East towards North

A sprinf has a potential energy of 84.08 J and a constant of 342.25 N/m. How far it been stretched? Use potential energy elastic
valina [46]

The spring has been stretched 0.701 m

Explanation:

The elastic potential energy of a spring is the potential energy stored in the spring due to its compression/stretching. It is calculated as

E=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

where

k is the spring constant

x is the elongation of the spring with respect to its equilibrium position

For the spring in this problem, we have:

E = 84.08 J (potential energy)

k = 342.25 N/m (spring constant)

Therefore, its elongation is:

x=\sqrt{\frac{2E}{k}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(84.08)}{342.25}}=0.701 m

a lead block drops its temperature by 5.90 degrees celsius when 427 J of heat are removed from it. what is the mass of the block
Airida [17]

Answer:

577g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Temperature change = 5.9°C

Amount of heat lost = 427J

Unknown:

Mass of the block = ?

Solution:

The heat capacity of a body is the amount of heat required to change the temperature of that body by 1°C.

                H =  m c Ф

  H is the heat capacity

 m  is the mass of the block

  c is the specific heat capacity

   Ф is the temperature change

Specific heat capacity of lead is 0.126J/g°C

   m = H / m Ф

   m = \frac{427}{0.126 x 5.9}  = 577g

Mass of the lead block is 577g

To enhance the effective surface, and hence the chemical reaction rate, catalytic surfaces often take the form of porous solids.
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

See solution with all the conditions considered. A gaseous mixture of A and B for which species A is chemically consumed at the catalytic surface.

The total pore reaction rate is stated below and it can be inferred by applying the bellow analogy.

an airplanes propeller completes one revolution in 65ms. a)what is the angular speed in rpm? in rad/s?
miss Akunina [59]

-- We already know the rate of revolutions per time ...
it's 1 revolution per 0.065 sec.  We just have to
unit-convert that to 'per minute'.

(1 rev / 0.065 sec) x (60 sec / min) = (1 x 60) / (0.065) = <em>923 RPM</em>  (rounded)
_______________________________

-- 1 revolution = 2π radians

  (2π rad) / (0.065 sec) = (2π / 0.065) = <em>96.66 rad/sec</em>  (rounded)
