Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

The speed of the boat in still water is perpendicular to the speed of the water flow. Therefore the speed relative to the ground (V), the speed of flow and the speed of the boat in still water form a right angled triangle. Hence the speed relative to the ground is given as:

V² = 56² + 126²

V² = 19012

V = 137.9 m/s

A car travels from 20-meters to 60-meters in 10 seconds. Calculate the car's speed.
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

8 m/s

Explanation:

All you have to do here is add 20 and 60 (giving you 80) and dividing by 10 seconds. 80/10= 8 m/s

An object completes one and half revolution of a circle of radius R calculate the displacement and distance
Papessa [141]

Answer:

Distance is path length covered by particle. When particle moves along half circle, it covers half the circumference therefore distance covered is (2×pi×r)/2 = pi× r. ... Hence displacement is equal to diameter or 2 times the radius of circle.

An unknown substance has a mass of 0.125 kg and an initial temperature of 95.0°C. The substance is then dropped into a calorimet
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

c = 1163.34 J/kg.°C

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity:

"Specific heat capacity is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a substance per unit of mass. The specific heat capacity of a material is a physical property."

Use this equation:

mcΔT = ( mw c + mAl cAl )  ΔT'

Rearranging the equation to find the specific heat (c) you get this:

c = (( mw c + mAl cAl )  ΔT') / (mΔT)

c = (( 0.285 (4186) + (0.15)(900)) (32 -25.1)) / ((0.125) (95 - 32))

c = 1163.34 J/kg.°C
