Answer:

58.86N

Explanation:

Using the formula for calculating density expressed as;

Density = Mass/volume

Given

Density of water = 1000kg/m³

Volume of the boat = (0.3×0.2×0.1)m³ (note that the units have been converted to meters)

Volume of the boat = 0.006m³

Get the mass of the boat

Mass =Density×volume

Mass = 1000×0.006

Mass = 6kg

Next is to find the weight

Weight = mass × acceleration due to gravity

Weight = 6×9.81

Weight = 58.86N

Hence the maximum weight the boat will hold in the water is 58.86N

A 1,600 kg train car rolling freely on level track at 16 m/s bumps into a 1.0 × 103 kg train car moving at 10.0 m/s in the same
emmainna [20.7K]
This item is solved through the concept of the conservation of momentum which states that the momentum before and after collision should be equal. 
                                   momentum = mass x velocity
            (1,600 kg)(16 m/s) + (1.0x10^3 kg)(10 m/s) = (1600 + 1000 kg)(x)
The value of x is 13.69 m/s. Thus, their final speed is approximately letter D. 14 m/s.

Two trains travel toward each other on the same track, beginning 100 miles apart. One train travels at 40 miles per hour; the ot
Paladinen [302]

D = distance between th two trains at the start of the motion = 100 miles

V = speed of the faster train towards slower train = 60 mph

v = speed of the slower train towards faster train = 40 mph

t = time taken by the two trains to collide = ?

time taken by the two trains to collide is given as

t = D/(V + v)

t = 100/(60 + 40) = 1 h

v' = speed of the bird = 90 mph

d = distance traveled by the bird

distance traveled by the bird is given as

d = v' t

d = 90 x 1

d = 90 miles
