Answer:

15.5 seconds

Explanation:

Apply Newton's second law:

∑F = ma

-12500 + 9200 = (12000) a

a = -0.275 m/s²

v = at + v₀

0 = (-0.275) t + 4.25

t = 15.5 s

It takes the boat 15.5 seconds to stop.

ExtremeBDS [4]
This can be solved using momentum balance, since momentum is conserved, the momentum at point 1 is equal to the momentum of point 2. momentum = mass x velocity
m1v1 = m2v2
(0.03kg x 900 m/s ) = 320(v2)
v2 = 27 / 320
v2 = 0.084 m/s is the speed of the astronaut

For each of the following, describe the relationship as directly or inversely proportional:
Maksim231197 [3]
The relationships can best be described as follows:
As frequency increases, wavelength decreases. <span>The greater the </span>energy<span>, the larger the frequency </span>and<span> the shorter (smaller) the </span>wavelength<span>. </span>

<span>a) wavelength vs. frequency = inversely proportional
b) wavelength vs. energy = inversely proportional
c) frequency vs. energy = directly proportional

A 6.89-nC charge is located 1.76 m from a 4.10-nC point charge. (a) Find the magnitude of the electrostatic force that one charg
iogann1982 [59]

Answer: a) 8.2 * 10^-8 N or 82 nN and b) is repulsive

Explanation: To solve this problem we have to use the Coulomb force for two point charged, it is given by:

F=\frac{k*q1*q2}{d^{2}}

Replacing the dat we obtain F=82 nN.

The force is repulsive because the points charged have the same sign.

Does the theory of relativity show that Newtonian mechanics is wrong?
valina [46]

Answer:

Einstein extended the rules of Newton for high speeds. For applications of mechanics at low speeds, Newtonian ideas are almost equal to reality. That is the reason we use Newtonian mechanics in practice at low speeds.

Explanation:

<em>But on a conceptual level, Einstein did prove Newtonian ideas quite wrong in some cases, e.g. the relativity of simultaneity. But again, in calculations, Newtonian ideas give pretty close to correct answer in low-speed regimes. So, the numerical validity of Newtonian laws in those regimes is something that no one can ever prove completely wrong - because they have been proven correct experimentally to a good approximation.</em>

The time delay between transmission and the arrival of the reflected wave of a signal using ultrasound traveling through a piece
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

10.01 cm

Explanation:

Given that,

The time delay between transmission and the arrival of the reflected wave of a signal using ultrasound traveling through a piece of fat tissue was 0.13 ms.

The average propagation speed for sound in body tissue is 1540 m/s.

We need to find the depth when the reflection occur. We know that, the distance is double when transmitting and arriving. So,

v=\dfrac{2d}{t}\\\\d=\dfrac{vt}{2}\\\\d=\dfrac{1540\times 0.13\times 10^{-3}}{2}\\\\d= $$0.1001\ m

or

d = 10.01 cm

So, the reflection will occur at 10.01 cm.
