You understand the concepts all perfectly fine, just have applied them slightly incorrectly.
Firstly, the speed time graph is actually a triangle since the question says a steady acceleration from rest - i.e. it started at 0 and worked up to 2ms-1 in the space of that 10 seconds. The area under the graph is the distance, and a triangle area is found with bh/2, and in this case that is 10*2/2 = 10m - so the boat travelled 10 metres.

Work done as you correctly stated is fd - giving the part against water resistance as 3*10 = 30J
However, you forgot to do the last part - the key words are rate of work - this means Power. Power is Energy/Time, and this whole process occurred over 10 seconds. So whilst 30J of energy were expended due to the water resistance, this didn't all occur in no time. So we need to divide that by 10 to get the power. And 30/10 is 3J/s - and J/s is the same as W.

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Hey

I have no idea when YOUR assignment is due.

Newtons 1rst law:

An object that has constant motion will remain at that speed unless acted on by an external force.

Newtons 2nd law:

F=ma (force=mass*acceleration)

Newtons 3rd law:

when a force is applied to an object, there will be an opposite but equal reaction.

Acceleration:

How much your speed increases/decreases per unit of time.

I wrote all that^

an oscillator with a mass of 310 g and a period of 0.180 s has amplited that decreases by 20 % during each complete oscillation
Alex

Answer:

1.241/s

Explanation:

From this question, we have the following information:

Mass of oscillator = 310

The time Period, t = 0.180

Decrease = 20 %

Amplitude of oscillation has the formula

A = Aoe^yt

1-20% = 80%

= 0.80

Y x 0.18 = -ln(0.8)

= 0.18Y = 0.2234

Y = 0.2233/0.18

Y = 1.241/s

The damping constant y is Therefore equal to 1.241s
