Answer:

17.46° W of N

Explanation:

His prow must point westward so that the westward component of his total velocity is equal to the eastward river speed.

3 = 10sinθ

sinθ = 3/10

θ = 17.4576... or about 17.46° W of N

it will take him 5 / 10cos17.46 = 0.52414... hrs. or about 31 min 27 s to cross.

Which of the following are thought to be rapidly rotating neutron stars with intense magnetic fields? Choose one answer.a. pulsa
frutty [35]
<h2>Answer: Pulsars</h2>

A <u>pulsar</u> is a neutron star that emits very intense electromagnetic radiation at short and periodic intervals ( rotating really fast) due to its intense magnetic field that induces this emission.  

Nevertheless, it is important to note that all pulsars are neutron stars, but not all neutron stars are pulsars.

Let's clarify:

A neutron star, is the name given to the remains of a supernova. In itself it is the result of the gravitational collapse of a massive supergiant star after exhausting the fuel in its core.  

Neutron stars have a small size for their very high density and they rotate at a huge speed.  

However, the way to know that a pulsar is a neutron star is because of its high rotating speed.

(02.06 LC)<br> Etiquette determines which (5 points)
k0ka [10]

Answer:

Etiquette determines which behaviors are polite and impolite among players and team. It is a code of polite conduct according to social norms and efficiency.

What is the magnitude of the electric field at the origin produced by a semi-circular arc of charge = 7.6 μc, twice the charge o
Anna [14]

Orient the semi-circle arc such that it is symmetric with respect to the y-axis. Now, by symmetry, the electric field in the x-direction cancels to zero. So the only thing of interest is the electric field in the y-direction.  


dEy=kp/r^2*sin(a) where k is coulombs constant p is the charge density r is the radius of the arc and a is the angular position of each point on the arc (ranging from 0 to pi. Integrating this renders 2kq/(pi*r^3). Where k is 9*10^9, q is 9.8 uC r is .093 m

The minute and hour hands of a clock have a common axis of rotation and equal mass. The minute hand is long, thin, and uniform;
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

b. less than

Explanation:

Moment of inertia decreases as angular velocity increases. Therefore, since the minute hand is faster than the hour hand, it is safe to say that the moment of inertia of the minute hand is less than the moment of inertia of the hour hand?
