A woman launches a boat from one shore of a straight river and wants to land at the point directly on the opposite shore. If the

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

If she stands on the North side of a river flowing to the East at 5 mph,

she must head towards the SouthWest to arrive on the South side of the river directly across from her starting point and we have

x^2 + 5^2 = 10^2 where x is her speed directly across the river

x = (75)^1/2 = 8.66 mph towards the South

sin theta = 5 / 10 = 1/2

She must angle the boat at 30 deg from straight South

A weather balloon is filled to a volume of 6000 L while it is on the ground, at a pressure of 1 atm and a temperature of 273 K.

avanturin [10]

Answer : The final volume of the balloon at this temperature and pressure is, 17582.4 L

Solution :

Using combined gas equation is,

$\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}$

where,

$P_1$ = initial pressure of gas = 1 atm

$P_2$ = final pressure of gas = 0.3 atm

$V_1$ = initial volume of gas = 6000 L

$V_2$ = final volume of gas = ?

$T_1$ = initial temperature of gas = 273 K

$T_2$ = final temperature of gas = 240 K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get the final pressure of gas.

$\frac{1atm\times 6000L}{273K}=\frac{0.3atm\times V_2}{240K}$

$V_2=17582.4L$

Therefore, the final volume of the balloon at this temperature and pressure is, 17582.4 L

Monochromatic light is incident on a metal surface, and electrons are ejected. If the intensity of the light increases, what wil

drek231 [11]

Answer:The rate of ejection of photoelectrons will increase

Explanation:

If the frequency of incident monochromatic light is held constant and its intensity is increased, the rate of ejection of photoelectrons from the metal surface increases with increase in intensity of the monochromatic light. More current flows due to more ejection of photoelectrons.

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The length of the longer pipe is L = 2.30 m

Explanation:

Given that:

Two open organ pipes, sounding together, produce a beat frequency of 8.0 Hz . The shorter one is 2.08 m long.

How long is the other pipe?

From above;

The formula for the frequency of open ended pipes can be expressed as:
