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

Ted Clubber Lang. A hook in boxing primarily involves horizontal flexion of the shoulder while maintaining a constant angle at t
il63 [147K]

Answer:

15 m/s or 1500 cm/s

Explanation:

Given that

Speed of the shoulder, v(h) = 75 cm/s = 0.75 m/s

Distance moved during the hook, d(h) = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Distance moved by the fist, d(f) = 100 cm = 1 m

Average speed of the fist during the hook, v(f) = ? cm/s = m/s

This can be solved by a very simple relation.

d(f) / d(h) = v(f) / v(h)

v(f) = [d(f) * v(h)] / d(h)

v(f) = (1 * 0.75) / 0.05

v(f) = 0.75 / 0.05

v(f) = 15 m/s

Therefore, the average speed of the fist during the hook is 15 m/s or 1500 cm/s

A student gives a 5.0 kg box a brief push causing the box to move with an initial speed of 8.0 m/s along a rough surface. The bo
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

The time taken to stop the box equals 1.33 seconds.

Explanation:

Since frictional force always acts opposite to the motion of the box we can find the acceleration that the force produces using newton's second law of motion as shown below:

F=mass\times acceleration\\\\\therefore acceleration=\frac{Force}{mass}

Given mass of box = 5.0 kg

Frictional force = 30 N

thus

acceleration=\frac{30}{5}=6m/s^{2}

Now to find the time that the box requires to stop can be calculated by first equation of kinematics

The box will stop when it's final velocity becomes zero

v=u+at\\\\0=8-6\times t\\\\\therefore t=\frac{8}{6}=4/3seconds

Here acceleration is taken as negative since it opposes the motion of the box since frictional force always opposes motion.

A 2.0 moles of a monatomic ideal gas expands isothermally from state a to state b, Pa = 600 Pa, Va = 3.0 m3, and Vb = 9.0 m3.
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

a) Pb= 200 PA

b).work done= -3600 joules

c).3600joules

D).the system works under isothermal condition so no heat was transferred

Explanation:

2.0 moles of a monatomic ideal gas expands isothermally from state a to state b, Pa = 600 Pa, Va = 3.0 m3, and Vb = 9.0 m3.

a). PbVb= PaVa

Pb= (PaVa)/VB

Pb= (600*3)/9

Pb= 1800/9

Pb= 200 PA

b). work done= n(Pb-Pa)(Vb-Va)

Work done= 2*(200-600)(9-3)

Work done= -600(6)

Work done=- 3600 Pam³

work done= -3600 joules

C). Change in internal energy I the work done on the system

= 3600joules

D).the system works under isothermal condition so no heat was transferred

Conservation and Rain Water Tank. Through conservation, they can save water in their own houses by lessening the use of water in an unimportant purpose; they can turn of the faucet when it is not used; they can use their laundry water to clean the bathroom and there are more. Through Rain Water Tank, they can create this structure in order to collect rain water and store it in the tank then use it afterwards such as in watering the plants.
