Answer:
0.29 m/s due west.
Explanation:
According to newton's second law,
Net force acting on an object = mass×acceleration
From the question,
F+F₁+F₂ = ma................ Equation 1
Where F = The force generated from the engine, F₁ = Force exerted by the wind, F₂ = Force exerted due to the water, m = mass of the boat, a = acceleration of the boat.
Given: F = 4080 N , F₁ = -680 N(east), F₂ = -1160 N(east). m = 7660 kg
substitute into equation 1
4080-680-1160 = 7660(a)
2240 = 7660a
Therefore,
a = 2440/7660
a = 0.29 m/s due west.
Answer:
5.714 hours / day
Explanation:
<u>Calculate the hours used in that week </u>
120000 / 3000 = 120 / 3 = 40 hours a week
<u>Calculate the amount it is used in one day</u>
40 / 7 = 5.71428571 hours or 5.714 hours/day
Acceleration is the
rate of change of velocity, a body moving with uniform velocity does not
possess acceleration at all i.e. acceleration is zero
Answer:
a = 2 m/s2
Explanation:
we know from newtons 2nd law
F = ma.
we also know that from hookes law we have
F = kx
equate both value of force to get value of acceleration
kx = ma,
where,
k is spring constant = 8.0 N/m
x is maximum displacement 0.10 m
m is mass of object 0.40 kg
a = \frac{kx}{m}
= \frac{8 *0 .10}{0.40}
a = 2 m/s2
