A boat is traveling at an initial velocity of 2.7 meters per second in the positive direction. It accelerates at a rate of 0.15

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 4.5 \ m/s \ in \ the \ positive \ direction}}$

Explanation:

We are asked to find the final velocity of the boat.

We are given the initial velocity, acceleration, and time. Therefore, we will use the following kinematic equation.

$v_f= v_i + at$

The initial velocity is 2.7 meters per second. The acceleration is 0.15 meters per second squared. The time is 12 seconds.

$v_i$ = 2.7 m/s
a= 0.15 m/s²
t= 12 s

Substitute the values into the formula.

$v_f = 2.7 \ m/s + (0.15 \ m/s^2)(12 \ s)$

Multiply the numbers in parentheses.

$v_f= 2.7 \ m/s + (0.15 \ m/s/s * 12 \ s)$

$v_f = 2.7 \ m/s + (0.15 \ m/s *12)$

$\v_f=2.7 \ m/s + (1.8 \ m/s)$ $v_f=2.7 \ m/s + (1.8 \ m/s)$

Add.

$v_f=4.5 \ m/s$

The final velocity of the boat is <u>4.5 meters per second in the positive direction.</u>

When the distance between two stars decreases by one-third, the force between them

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

the force will increase by a factor 2.25

Explanation:

The gravitational force between the two stars is given by:

$F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two stars

r is the distance between the stars

If the distance is decreased by one-third, it means that the new distance is 2/3 of the previous distance

$r'=\frac{2}{3}r$

So the new force will be

$F'=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{(\frac{2}{3}r)^2}=\frac{9}{4} G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}=2.25 F$

So, the force will be 2.25 times the previous value.

A student thinks that any real vibration must be damped. Is the student correct? If so, give convincing reasoning. If not, give

Stels [109]

Answer:

Yes the student is correct

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed

The second law of thermodynamics states that the entropy (disorderliness) of an isolated system always increases

Therefore, whereby energy is not supplied to maintain the orderly oscillatory motion with constant amplitude, the amplitude of the system is bound to reduce with time that is the vibration of the system must be damped

Describe the relationship between a moving objects mass and its kinetic energy

swat32

Kinetic energy is the energy of mass in motion, the kinetic energy that an object has is because of it's motion.Heavier objects that are moving have more kinetic energy than lighter ones.
