A river flows due east at 1.50 m/s. A boat crosses the river from the south shore to the north shore by maintaining a constant v

elocity of 10.0 m/s due north relative to the water. If the river is 325 m wide, how far downstream is the boat when it reaches the north shore?

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that the velocity of the river is 1.50m/s due east.

The velocity of the boat with respect to the river is 10.0 m/s due north .

The width of the river is 325 m.

Note that the velocity of the boat will help in crossing the river.

Hence, speed = distance/time

Speed = 10.0 m/s

Distance = 325 m

Time = ?

10 = 325/time

Time = 325/10

Time = 32.5s

Hence in 32.5s the horizontal distance traveled by boat will be

= 1.50m/s × 32.5s

= 48.75m

Answer:

X = 2146.05 m

Explanation:

We need to understand first what is the value we need to calculate here. In this case, we want to know how far from the starting point the package should be released. This is the distance.

We also know that the plane is flying a certain height with an specific speed. And the distance we need to calculate is the distance in X with the following expression:

X = Vt   (1)

However we do not know the time that this distance is covered. This time can be determined because we know the height of the plain. This time is referred to the time of flight. And the time of flight can be calculated with the following expression:

t = √2h/g   (2)

Where g is gravity acceleration which is 9.8 m/s². Replacing the data into the expression we have:

t = √(2*2500)/9.8

t = 22.59 s

Now replacing into (1) we have:

X = 95 * 22.59

<h2>X = 2146.05 m</h2>

This is the distance where the package should be released.

Hope this helps

A 75.0 kg man pushes on a 500,000 kg wall for 250 s but it does not move.
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

he does no work on the wall coz wall didn't move

the wall doesn't move so the energy that he use will be wasted

the force that he put on the wall is also zero since the wall didn't move

Suppose you are planning a trip in which a spacecraft is totravel at a constant velocity for exactly six months, as measuredby a
Eva8 [605]

Answer: 0.999959 c

Explanation:  

According to the special relativity theory, time is measured differently by two observers moving one relative another, according to the Lorentz Transform Equation, as follows:

t = t’ / t=t^'/√(1-(v)2/c2 )

where t= time for the moving observer (relative to the spacecraft, fixed on Earth) = 110 years.

t’= time for the observer at rest respect from spacecraft = 1 year

v= spacecraft constant speed

c= speed of light

Solving for v, with a six decimals precision as a multiple of c, we get:

v = 0.999959 c

A spring (k = 20 N/m) sits on a frictionless surface. The spring is compressed 20 cm and a 2 kg mass is placed before the spring
Olenka [21]

Answer:

E.)none of the above

Explanation:

Elastic energy = kinetic energy

½ kx² = ½ mv²

v = x √(k / m)

v = 0.2 m √(20 N/m / 2 kg)

v = 0.632 m/s

Time to travel 2.0 m:

t = (2.0 m) / (0.632 m/s)

t = 3.16 s
