A pontoon boat travels across a lake in a straight line and increases in speed uniformly from vi = 18.5 m/s to vf = 36.0 m/s in

a displacement Δx of 250 m. We wish to find the time interval required for the boat to move through this displacement. g
(a) Draw a coordinate system for this situation.

(b) What

analysis model is most appropriate for describing this situation?

(c) From the analysis model, what equation is most

appropriate for finding the acceleration of the speedboat?

(d) Solve the equation selected in part (c) symbolically for

the boat’s acceleration in terms of vi , vf , and ?x. (e) Substitute

numerical values to obtain the acceleration numerically.

(f) Find the time interval mentioned above.

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) The motion is one dimensional , so motion is along x - axis , starting from origin ( 0 , 0 )

b ) Initial velocity is 18.5 m /s when boat is situated at origin . When he displaces by 250 m along x axis and his position is ( 250 , 0 ) along x axis , his velocity becomes 36 m /s . Both his velocity and acceleration is along x - axis.

c ) Initial velocity vi = 18.5 m /s

final velocity vf = 36 m/s

Displacement x  = 250 m

Acceleration a = ?

Most appropriate formula is given below .

vf² = vi² + 2 a x

2ax = vf² - vi²

x =  ( vf² - vi² ) / 2 a

d )

Putting the given values

36² - 18.5² / 2 x 250

= 1296 - 342.25 / 500

= 1.9 m /s².

f ) Time interval t = ?

Required formula

vf = vi + at

t = (vf - vi ) / a

Putting the values

t = (30 - 18.5) / 1.9

= 6.05 second .

Can someone please explain the quantum theory in simple terms
BaLLatris [955]
Quantum theory is the theoretical basis of modern physics that explains the nature and behavior of matter and energy on the atomic and subatomic level. The nature and behavior of matter and energy at that level is sometimes referred to as quantum physics and quantum mechanics.

A harmonic wave is traveling along a rope. It is observed that the oscillator that generates the wave completes 43.0 vibrations
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

0.218

Explanation:

Given that

Total vibrations completed by the wave is 43 vibrations

Time taken to complete the vibrations is 33 seconds

Length of the wave is 424 cm = 4.24 m

to solve this problem, we first find the frequency.

Frequency, F = 43 / 33 hz

Frequency, F = 1.3 hz

Also, we find the wave velocity. Which is gotten using the relation,

Wave velocity = 4.24 / 15

Wave velocity = 0.283 m/s

Now, to get our answer, we use the formula.

Frequency * Wavelength = Wave Velocity

Wavelength = Wave Velocity / Frequency

Wavelength = 0.283 / 1.3

Wavelength = 0.218
