Answer:A generator is the appropriate device to be used.

Explanation:

A generator is a device which transforms mechanical energy to electrical energy.

The different parts of a generator includes:

- Engine, alternator, fuel system, voltage regulator, lubricating system, cooling and exhaust system, Battery charger and control panel.

The generator works on the principle of electromagnetic induction which states that

that the above flow of electric charges could be induced by moving an electrical conductor, such as a wire that contains electric charges, in a magnetic field. This movement creates a voltage difference between the two ends of the wire or electrical conductor, which in turn causes the electric charges to flow, thus generating electric current.

Therefore, the use of a generator is the best device for the campers to provide electrical power source for their heaters and light in the cabin.

MatroZZZ [7]
Initial velocity, u = 4 m/s

acceleration due to gusts of wind = 3 m/s^2

time, t = 1 min = 60 s

Let distance travelled = S

From equation of motion,

S = ut +  \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}  \\  \\ S = 4 \times 60 +   \frac{1}{2}  \times 3 \times  {60}^{2}  \\  \\ S = 240 + 5400 \\  \\ S = 5640 \: m

Thus, the boat would have traveled 5640m after gusts picked up.

Which of two factors influence the weight of an object due to gravitational pull?
densk [106]
The weight of an object when calculated by multiplying with the pull of the gravity is dependent on the mass of the object and the value of g. The value of g is constant however is still dependent on the distance of the object from the center of the Earth. Thus, the answers are <em>mass and distance. </em>

A glass of root beer with a scoop of ice cream floating on top and a straw sticking out.
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

These forces are all equal and cancel each other out. Gravity pushes downward on the ice cream. This can also be called the weight of the ice cream. Buoyant force pushes the ice cream upward

Brut [27]

Answer:

the free encyclopedia. In molecular geometry, bond length or bond distance is defined as the average distance between nuclei of two bonded atoms in a molecule. It is a transferable property of a bond between atoms of fixed types, relatively independent of the rest of the molecule.
