You are stranded in a stationary boat. Your friend is on a dock, but the boat is just beyond his reach. There is a 5 kg anchor i

n the boat. You'd like to get the boat to move closer to the dock so your friend can rescue you. Select from the following list what effect each change will have on the position of the boat relative to the dock. A. The boat will move closer to the dock. B. The boat will move away from the dock. C. The position of the boat relative to the dock will not change.

Answer:

running away and launching the anchor that will give a greater speed towards the dock v₄.

Explanation:

To try to bring the boat closer to the dock, several cases can be carried out.

* move inside the ship so that the center of mass changes and since moving away you have a speed v, the ship will approach the dock at a speed v₂,

* Throw the anchor in the opposite direction to the dock so that using the conservation of the moment the boat moves towards it, it moves at a speed v₃

* A combination of the two processes running away and launching the anchor that will give a greater speed towards the dock v₄.

In all cases, the friction must be zero.

All other movements move the ship away from the dock

How much will a 200kg hippo accelerate if you push it with a force of 800 N?
Fantom [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

force = f, mass = m, acceleration = a

f = m a

m = 200 kg

f = 800 N

f = m a

800 = 200a

a = 800 / 200

<u><em>a = 4</em></u>

The index of refraction for a certain type of glass is 1.641 for blue light and 1.603 for red light. When a beam of white light
exis [7]

Answer:

The angle between the emergent blue and red light is 0.566^{o}

Explanation:

We have according to Snell's law

n_{1}sin(\theta _{i})=n_{2}sin(\theta _{r})

Since medium from which light enter's is air thus n_{1}=1

Thus for blue incident light we have

1\times sin(40.05)=1.641\times sin(\theta _{rb})\\\\\therefore \theta _{rb}=sin^{-1}(\frac{sin(40.05)}{1.64})\\\\\theta _{rb}=23.10

Similarly using the same procedure for red light we have

1\times sin(40.05)=1.603\times sin(\theta _{rr})\\\\\therefore \theta _{rr}=sin^{-1}(\frac{sin(40.05)}{1.603})\\\\\theta _{rr}=23.66^{o}

Thus the absolute value of angle between the refracted blue and red light is

|23.66-23.10|=0.566^{o}

What is the uses of echoes​
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Echoes are the reflection of sound from relatively flat object that is far enough away that you can discern the time difference. Echoes are used to measure distance, velocity, and the shape of objects. Echoes off gratings result in an unusual pinging sound
