Answer:
If she stands on the North side of a river flowing to the East at 5 mph,
she must head towards the SouthWest to arrive on the South side of the river directly across from her starting point and we have
x^2 + 5^2 = 10^2 where x is her speed directly across the river
x = (75)^1/2 = 8.66 mph towards the South
sin theta = 5 / 10 = 1/2
She must angle the boat at 30 deg from straight South
Answer:
The solution set of a disjunction is the union of the solution sets of the individual inequalities. A convenient way to graph a disjunction is to graph each individual inequality above the number line, then move them both onto the actual number line
Explanation:
Answer:
77%
Explanation:
efficiency= work output/work input X 100%
e = 1,200j/ 1,550 j x100%
e = 1,200/1,550= 0.77
e = 0.77 x 100%
e = 77%
Question:
What two forces are balanced in what we call gravitational equilibrium?
A) the electromagnetic force and gravity
B) outward pressure and the strong force
C) outward pressure and inward gravity
D) the strong force and gravity
E) the strong force and kinetic energy
Answer:
The correct answer is C) Outward Pressure and Inward gravity
Explanation:
Gravitational equilibrium is a balance between the inward pull of gravity and the outward push of internal gas pressure. It also refers to the condition of a star in which the weight of overlying layers at each point is balanced by the total pressure at that point.
As the weight increases in the lower layers of the sun, the pressure also increases to maintain this balance. So you find that the outward push of pressure balances the inward pull of gravity thus creating an equilibrium.
Why is gravitational equilibrium important?
The simple answer is <u>balance. </u> If for instance the sun as a stable star (which has gravitational equilibrium) loses it's balance, it becomes highly unstable and prone to violent outbursts. These outbursts are caused by the very high radiation pressure at the star's upper layers, which blows significant portions of the matter at the "surface" into space during eruptions that may rage for several years. Of course such a condition is adverse to the existence and support of life.
Cheers!
