Answer:

121km/h

Explanation:

Let speed of boat=xkm/h

Speed of water flow=33 km/h

Speed upstream=(x-33)km/h

Speed downstream=(x+33)km/h

Time=44 hrs

Time =77 hrs

We have to find the speed of boat.

Distance=Speed\times time

Using the formula

Upstream distance=Downstream distance

(x-33)\times 77=(x+33)\times 44

77x-2541=44x+1452

77x-44x=1452+2541

33x=3993

x=\frac{3993}{33}=121

Hence, the speed of boat=121km/h

goldfiish [28.3K]

The moment of a couple is Force × perpendicular distance from the arm of the line of action

so the arm of the couple= moment of couple/force=8.5/34=0.25m

the arm is 0.25m

A proton and an electron are moving in the +x direction in a magnetic field in the +z
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force on a moving charge is given by the following relation

F = q ( v x B )

for proton

q = e  ,   v = vi  , B = Bk

F = e ( vi x Bk )

= Bev - j

= - Bevj

The direction of force is along negative of y axis or -y - axis.

for electron

q = - e  ,   v = vi  , B = Bk

F = - e ( vi x Bk )

= - Bev - j

=  Bevj

The direction of force is along positive  of y axis or + y - axis.
