Answer:

The magnitude of the velocity of boat w.r.t ground is 6.2015 m/s

Solution:

As per the question;

Width of the river, w = 216 m

Uniform speed of boat due east, u_{x} = 2.2\hat{i} m/s

Angle in north west direction, \theta = 34^{\circ}

Velocity of the boat relative to water, v_{bw} = 7.9m/s

Now,

Velocity of the boat relative to the water is given by:

v_{bw} = -7.9cos34^{\circ}\hat{i} + 7.9sin34^{\circ}\hat{j}

v_{bw} = - 6.55\hat{i} + 4.42\hat{j} m/s

Also, velocity of water w.r.t ground is v_{wg} = u_{x} = 2.2\hat{i} m/s

Now,

Magnitude of the velocity of boat w.r.t ground is given by:

v_{bg} = v_{bw} + v_{wg}

v_{bg} = - 6.55\hat{i} + 4.42\hat{j} + 2.2\hat{i}

v_{bg} = - 4.35\hat{i} + 4.42\hat{j} m/s

|v_{bg}| = \sqrt{(- 4.35)^{2} + (4.42)^{2}} = 6.2015\ m/s

An arch carries the thrust of weight to its _____(1)______. With a _____(2)______, the horizontal part of the structure supports
finlep [7]

Option D is correct. An arch carries the thrust of weight to its <u>sides </u>with a <u>post-and-lintel.</u>

<u></u>

<h3>What is an arch?</h3>

An arch is indeed a vertical curving construction that covers an elevated space that may or may not sustain the load above it or the pressure gradient against it

In the case of a horizontally arched, such as an embankment dam. While arches and vaults are often confused, A vault is defined as an ongoing arch forming a roof.

Option D satisfies the fill-in blanks option.

Hence option D is correct. An arch carries the thrust of weight to its <u>sides </u>with a <u>post-and-lintel.</u>
