The velocity of a passenger relative to a boat is -vpb. The velocity of the boat relative to the river it is moving on is vbr. T

Answer:

vps = vbr + vrs - vpb

Explanation:

  • If the passenger were at rest, his speed relative to the shore will be identical to the boat's, as follows:
  • vps = vbr + vrs
  • As he is moving in a direction opposite to the boat's, his velocity relative to the shore must be less than if he were at rest, in the same quantity that he was moving opposite to the boat, as follows:
  • vps = vbr+ vrs -vpb

Calculate the kinetic energy of a 0.032 kg ball as it leaves a hand to be thrown upwards at 6.2 m/s
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The ball will have a kinetic energy of 0.615 Joules.

Explanation:

Use the kinetic energy formula

E_k = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}0.032kg\cdot 6.2^2 \frac{m^2}{s^2}= 0.615J

The kinetic energy at the moment of leaving the hand will be 0.615 Joules. (From there on, as it ball is traveling upwards, this energy will be gradually traded off with potential energy until the ball's velocity becomes zero at the apex of the flight)

A bicycle tire of a radius of 0.44 m has a piece of gum stuck on its rim. What is the angle through which the tire rotates when
Karolina [17]

Based on the calculations, the angle through which the tire rotates is equal to 4.26 radians and 244.0 degrees.

<h3>How to calculate the angle?</h3>

In Physics, the distance covered by an object in circular motion can be calculated by using this formula:

S = rθ

<u>Where:</u>

  • r is the radius of a circular path.
  • θ is the angle measured in radians.
  • S is the distance.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

1.87 = 0.44 × θ

θ = 1.87/0.44

θ = 4.26 radians.

Next, we would convert this value in radians to degrees:

θ = 4.26 × 180/π

θ = 4.26 × 180/3.142

θ = 244.0 degrees.

Could an experiment similar to young's two-slit experiment be performed with sound? how might this be carried out? does it matte
Arada [10]
Young's double slit experiment(YDSE) can be used for any kind of waves such as electromagnetic waves, sound waves, water waves, gravity waves. YDSE is based on interference. In this experiment, we make two waves interfere in order to obtain bright and dark fringes on the screen(in case of light).
You can carry this out with water, would be great if you try this at pond or water reservoir in order to see perfect ripples.
