<u>Answer:</u> Below 12m of depth, the submarine has to submerge so that it would not be swayed by surface waves

<u>Explanation:</u>

To avoid the surface waves, a submarine has to submerge below the wave base. It is the position below which the motion of the waves is negligible.

This wave base is equal to half of the wavelength. The equation becomes:

Wave base = \frac{\text{Wavelength}}{2}

We are given:

Wavelength = 24 m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Wave base = \frac{24m}{2}=12m

Hence, below 12m of depth, the submarine has to submerge so that it would not be swayed by surface waves

If Scoobie could drive a Jetson's flying car at a constant speed of 450.0 km/hr across oceans and space, approximately how long
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

The value is t = 3.6 \  days

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The speed is v  =  450.0 km/h

The radius of the earth is R =  6200 \  km

Generally the circumfernce of the earth is mathematically evaluated as

C =  2\pi  R

=> C =   2 * 3.142 *   6200

=> C =  38960.8 \ km

Generally the time taken is mathematically represented as

t =  \frac{38960.8}{450.0}

         t = 86.6 \  hr

Converting to days

         t = \frac{86.6}{24}

=>       t = 3.6 \  days

You are performing a knee extension exercise. You hold a 20kg weight at full knee extension. The weight is 0.4m from your knee j
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The moment is -78.4 N-m (clockwise).

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the object (m) = 20 kg

Distance of the object from the knee joint (d) = 0.4 m

Weight of leg is not considered.

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Now, weight of the object is equal to the product of its mass and acceleration due to gravity. So,

Weight = Mass × Acceleration due to gravity

            = mg=20\times 9.8 =196\ N

We know that, moment of a force about a point is defined as the product of force applied and the perpendicular distance between the point and the line of application of force.

Moment of the given weight about the knee joint is given as:

Moment about knee joint = Weight × Distance from knee joint to weight

Moment about knee joint = 196 × 0.4 = 78.4 Nm

Now, from the diagram below, we can observe that, the weight acts vertically down and thus the sense of rotation about the knee joint at point O is clockwise. So, moment is negative.

Therefore, the moment is -78.4 N-m (clockwise).

Why is velocity and not just speed important to these pilots
Alborosie
Velocity is a vector. Therefore, it depends on the direction. Pilots need to know the direction of wind, not just the speed. If the pilot is going South, and there's 5 mph wind going South, they'll be happy, but if the wind is going 5 mph North, they'll be going against the wind.
