Answer: 208.3 s

Explanation:

Hi!

You need to calculate the velocity of the boat relative to the shore, in each trip.

Relative velocities are transformed according to:

$V_{b,s} = V_{b,w} + V_{w,s}\\ V_{b,s} = \text{velocity of boat relative to shore}\\V_{b,w} = \text{velocity of boat relative to water} \\V_{b,w} = \text{velocity of water relative to shore}\\$

Let's take the upstram direction as positive. Water flows downstream, so it's velocity relative to shore is negative , -2 m/s

In the upstream trip, velocity of boat relative to water is positive: 10m/s. But in the downstream trip it is negatoive: -10m/s

In upstream trip we have:

$V_{b,s} = (10 - 2)\frac{m}{s} = 8 ms$

In dowstream we have:

$V_{b,s} = (-10 - 2)\frac{m}{s} = -12 ms$

In both cases the distance travelled is 1000m. Then the time it takes the round trip is:

$T = T_{up} + T_{down} = \frac{1000}{8}s + \frac{1000}{12}s = 208.3 s$

Consider the vector field. f(x, y, z) = xy2z2i x2yz2j x2y2zk (a) find the curl of the vector field?

Marat540 [252]

Observe that the given vector field is a gradient field:

Let $f(x,y,z)=\nabla g(x,y,z)$ , so that

$\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial x} = x y^2 z^2$

$\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y} = x^2 y z^2$

$\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial z} = x^2 y^2 z$

Integrating the first equation with respect to $x$ , we get

$g(x,y,z) = \dfrac12 x^2 y^2 z^2 + h(y,z)$

Differentiating this with respect to $y$ gives

$\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y} = x^2 y z^2 + \dfrac{\partial h}{\partial y} = x^2 y z^2 \\\\ \implies \dfrac{\partial h}{\partial y} = 0 \implies h(y,z) = i(z)$

Now differentiating $g$ with respect to $z$ gives

$\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial z} = x^2 y^2 z + \dfrac{di}{dz} = x^2 y^2 z \\\\ \implies \dfrac{di}{dz} = 0 \implies i(z) = C$

Putting everything together, we find a scalar potential function whose gradient is $f$ ,

$f(x,y,z) = \nabla \left(\dfrac12 x^2 y^2 z^2 + C\right)$

It follows that the curl of $f$ is 0 (i.e. the zero vector).

Assume that a resistor is connected between the 150 V terminal and the common terminal. The voltmeter is then connected to an un

Lena [83]

Answer: $316.8V$

Explanation:

given data:

metre moving current = $0.96mA$

meters voltage = $288V$

or $0.96*300V = 288V$

Solution:

$v1 = (0.96mA*150)$

$= 144V$

$i1 = \frac{144v}{750}$

$= 0.192mA$

$i2 = imovement + i1$

$i2= 0.96mA+0.192mA$

$= 1.152mA$

$Vmeasured = 144V+(150)(1.152mA)$

$=316.8V$

the unknown voltage is 316.8V

A diffraction grating is placed 1.00 m from a viewing screen. Light from a hydrogen lamp goes through the grating. A hydrogen sp

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

λ = 396.7 nm

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the diffraction ratio of a grating

d sin θ = m λ

in general the networks works in the first order m = 1

we can use trigonometry, remembering that in diffraction experiments the angles are small

tan θ = y / L

tan θ = $\frac{sin \theta}{cos \theta}$ = sin θ

sin θ = y / L

we substitute

$d \ \frac{y}{L}$ = m λ

with the initial data we look for the distance between the lines

d = $\frac{m \lambda \ L}{y}$

d = 1 656 10⁻⁹ 1.00 / 0.600

d = 1.09 10⁻⁶ m

for the unknown lamp we look for the wavelength

λ = d y / L m

λ = 1.09 10⁻⁶ 0.364 / 1.00 1

λ = 3.9676 10⁻⁷ m

λ = 3.967 10⁻⁷ m

we reduce nm

λ = 396.7 nm

what factors go into decisions about changing what materials should be used when building a products

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

you need to consider the use for the product, how brittle the materials are, how they react to certain things, the cost of the materials, the durability and flexibility of the materials, and how easy to obtain the materials are as well as how they would work and how they would hold
