Answer:
655.82m
Explanation:
By tracing the distances traveled from 308m down in the water and then 579m to the east, a <u>right triangle </u>can be formed and the displacement can be found by the Pythagorean theorem. This is shown in the attached image (the red line is the displacement).
One leg of the triangle will be the 308m
and the second leg of the triangle will be the 579m.
If we call the displacement 
, by the pythagorean theorem:
The displacement is 655.82m
Answer:
(a) Z = 48.3 Ω
(b) cos ∅ = 0.455
(c) Irms = 10.35 A
(d) C = 74.02 μF
(e) Irms = 4.44 A
Explanation:
Power (P) = 2.36 kW
Frequency (f) = 50 Hz
RMS Voltage (Vrms) = 500 V
Resistance (R) = 22 Ω
Inductive Reactance (XL) = 43 Ω
(a) to calculate the total impedance, use the formula:
Z = √(R² + XL²)
= √((22)² + (43)²)
= √2333
Z = 48.3 Ω
(b) To calculate the plant's power factor, we will use the formula:
cos ∅ = R/Z
= 22/48.3
cos ∅ = 0.455
(c) To calculate the RMS current used by the plant, divide the RMS voltage value by the impedance of the plant.
Irms = Vrms/Z
= 500/48.3
Irms = 10.35 A
(d) For the power factor to become unity, the inductive reactance must be equal to the capacitive reactance i.e. Xc = XL
Xc = XL
1/(2πfC) = XL
1/(2πfXL) = C
C = 1/(2π*50*43)
= 7.402 x 10⁻⁵
C = 74.02 μF
(e) P = Vrms*Irms*cos∅
Irms = P/Vrms*cos∅
= 2.22 x 10³/500*1
Irms = 4.44 A
If only that were true, you would see tidal power stations
all up and down every coast by now.
Answer:
0.11m
Explanation:
let's assume the boat is of uniform construction
Ignoring friction losses
Also assume the origin is at the end of the boat originally with the heavier person
the center of mass of the whole system will not change relative to the water when the two swap ends
Originally, the center of mass is
85[0] + 90[3.5/2] + 50[3.5] / (85 + 90 + 50) = 1.14m from the origin
after the swap, the center of mass is
50[0] + 90[3.5/2] + 85[3.5] / (85 + 90+ 50) = 1.030m from the origin
The center of mass has shifted
1.14-1.030 = 0.11m
as no external force acted on the system, the center of mass relative to the water will not change. The boat will therefore shift towards the end where the heavier person originally sat
