How many forces are acting on a stationary raft floating in a swimming pool A1 B2 or C3

Physics
1 answer:
Hitman42 [59]3 years ago
3 0
There are at least two forces on it, and there could be more.

Vertical forces:
-- gravity, directed downward
-- buoyant force, directed upward
These two forces must be exactly equal, so that the net
vertical force on the raft is zero.  Otherwise, it would be
accelerating either up or down.

Horizontal forces:
We know that the net horizontal force on the raft is zero. 
Otherwise, it would be accelerating horizontally.

But we don't know if there are actually no horizontal forces
at all, or a balanced group of horizontal forces, that add up
to a net force of zero.

1. how does a waveform change when you increase the frequency?
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

1.Wave frequency is the number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time. The SI unit for wave frequency is the hertz (Hz), where 1 hertz equals 1 wave passing a fixed point in 1 second. A higher-frequency wave has more energy than a lower-frequency wave with the same amplitude.

9966 [12]

Answer: 33.2\%

Explanation:

Given

83% heat is transferred and out of this, only 40% is converted to the mechanical energy of spinning turbine.

The overall efficiency is the product of all the efficiency i.e.

\eta_t=0.83\times 0.4\\\eta_t=0.332\ \text{or}\ 33.2\%
