Let F = the downstream speed of the water.
<span>Then the boat's upstream speed is: 15 - F </span>
<span>The boat's downstream speed is: 15 + F </span>
<span>Assume both the journeys mentioned take T hours, then using "speed x time = distance" we get: </span>
<span>Downstream journey: (15 + F)T = 140 </span>
<span>Upstream journey: (15 - F)T = 35 </span>
<span>Add the two formulae together: </span>
<span>(15 + F)T + (15 - F)T = 140 + 35 </span>
<span>15T + FT + 15T - FT = 175 </span>
<span>30T = 175 </span>
<span>T = 35/6 </span>
<span>Use one of the equations to find F: </span>
<span>(15 + F)T = 140 </span>
<span>15 + F = 140/T </span>
<span>F = 140/T - 15 </span>
<span>F = 140/(35/6) - 15 </span>
<span>F = 24 - 15 </span>
<span>F = 9 </span>
<span>i.e. the downstream speed of the water is 9 kph </span>
<span>Therefore, the boat's speed downstream is 15 + F = 15 + 9 = 24 kph.
the answer is: *24kph*</span>
Answer:
a) from the hotter object to the cooler object
Explanation:
temperature moves by conduction, which is associated with the movement of atoms or molecules and the always move from hight temperatures to lower temperatures to attain thermal equilinrium of the system.
so when two objects are placed together and have different temperatures then the system is not in thermal equilibrium and to attain it, temperature can only move to coller object and not from the coller object according to thermodynamics.
The speed is changing its direction all the time. There
is an acceleration which changes the direction of the speed – that is called
centripetal acceleration. Only uniform linear motions are considered to have no
acceleration.
This is the general formula for acceleration
a = dv/dt
When calculating dv, you should keep in mind the change
in the velocity vector’s direction. You can easily see in a graph that with dt
tending to 0 (so the length of the arc covered is also tending to 0), the difference
between vectors Vf and V0 has a direction which is perpendicular to velocity
(the shorter the arc, the closest the angle is to 90 degrees).
There is a formula (which can be deducted from the
previous formula) which allows you to calculate the acceleration:
a = v^2/r
Let’s talk about the units:
v is in m/s
r is in m
so v^2/r
is in (m/s)^2/m = (m^2/s^2)/m = m/s^2
which is the same unit as dv/dt:
dv/dt = (m/s)/s= m/s^2
