In a crossing situation, which vessel is required to maintain its course and speed?

Physics
1 answer:
makvit [3.9K]3 years ago
3 0

Both in the domestic and international guidelines tell that when two power-driven vessels are crossing so as to contain risk of collision, the vessel which has the other on her starboard side (the give-way vessel) must keep out of the way.

If you are the give-way vessel, it is your responsibility to avoid a collision. Normally, this means you must change speed or direction to cross behind the other vessel which is the stand-on vessel.

At evening, when you perceive a red light crossing right-to-left in front of you, you need to change your course. But if you perceive a green light crossing from left-to-right, you are the stand-on vessel, and should maintain course and speed.

The leading situations of collision risk are meeting head-on, overtaking, and crossing. When one of two vessels is to keep out of the way (give-way vessel), the other, the stand-on vessel, must uphold course and speed.

-BARSIC- [3]
Frequency:

Cardio : Five or more 
HIIT: 5 or 4

Strength: 2-3 days on non-consecutive days a week
 
Intensity:
How hard you work during the session

For cardio : workout at your target heart rate.
For HIIT: varying intensity from high to low or rest ( no slow pace)
For strength: you should lift enough weight to complete the needed number of reps and sets.

Time:

For cardio 30- 60 min
For HIIT 45 min (short periods of bursts followed by rest)

For strength depends on the amount of weight.

Type:

Either cardio, HIIT or strength training (resistance training)

A piece of steel can be made
Temka [501]

Explanation:

Answer. Due to stroking the piece of steel, the domains which are randomly arranged get aligned in the direction of stroking by the magnet. Due to this alignment of the domains, the piece of steel attains magnetic properties.

You need to estimate the floor area of your unusual oval shaped living room from memory you remember that it is longer than wide
REY [17]

Answer:

Our estimate not done correctly because the width was unrealistic.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length = 6 m

Width = 0.5 m

We need to calculate the area of rectangular floor

Using formula of area

A=l\times w

Where, l = length

w= width

Put the value into the formula

A=6\times0.5

A=3\ m^2

We need to find why this estimate not done correct

Using given data

We can say that,

We assume width was unrealistic.

The length of room is 6 m.

We know that,

1\ m=3.28\ feet

So, the length would be 20 feet.

The width of room is 0.5 m.

The width of room would be 1.64 feet.

So, the area will be

A=20\times1.64

A=32.8\ feet^2

Hence,  Our estimate not done correctly because the width was unrealistic.

The driver of a 770 kg car decides to double the speed from 23.1 m/s to 46.2 m/s. What effect would this have on the amount of w
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

The final kinetic energy is four times of initial kinetic energy when speed of the car doubles.

K_{2} = 4 K_{1}

Explanation:

Mass of the car = 770 kg

initial speed V_{1} = 23.1 \frac{m}{s}

Final speed V_{2} = 46.2 \frac{m}{s}

Initial kinetic energy K_{1} = \frac{1}{2} m V_{1} ^{2}

⇒ K_{1} = 0.5 × 770 × 23.1^{2}

⇒ K_{1} = 205440 J

Final kinetic energy  K_{2} = \frac{1}{2} m V_{2} ^{2}

⇒ K_{2} = 0.5× 770 × 46.2^{2}

⇒ K_{2} = 821760 J

Thus K_{2} = 4 K_{1}

Therefore the final kinetic energy is four times of initial kinetic energy when speed of the car doubles.
