Answer:
S = 16 m
Explanation:
Given that
The frequency of the water waves, f = 4 Hz
The wavelength of the water waves, λ = 2 m
The time the waves reached the shore, t = 2 s
The relation between the velocity, wavelength, and the frequency of the wave is given by the relation,
v = f λ m/s
Substituting the given values in the above equation,
v = 4 x 2
= 8 m/s
The velocity of the water waves is v = 8 m/s
The distance between the shore and boat is given by
s = v x t
= 8 x 2
= 16 m
Hence, the distance between the boat and the shore is, s = 16 m
Answer:
The force of the impact would be smaller
Explanation: Examples:
If the force is big then the time would be small (2500N of Force = 10 seconds)
If the force is small then the time would be big (250N of Force = 50 seconds)
Impulse/Collision -> [Ft] = [M (vf-vo)] <- Change in momentum
Answer:
f1 = -3.50 m
Explanation:
For a nearsighted person an object at infinity must be made to appear to be at his far point which is 3.50 m away. The image of an object at infinity must be formed on the same side of the lens as the object.
∴ v = -3.5 m
Using mirror formula,
i/f1 = 1/v + 1/u
Where f1 = focal length of the contact lens, v = image distance = -3.5 m, u = object distance = at infinity(∞) = 1/0
∴ 1/f1 = (1/-3.5) + 1/infinity
Note that, 1/infinity = 1/(1/0) = 0/1 =0.
∴ 1/f1 = 1/(-3.5) + 0
1/f1 = 1/(-3.5)
Solving the equation by finding the inverse of both side of the equation.
∴ f1 = -3.50 m
Therefore a converging lens of focal length f1 = -3.50 m
would be needed by the person to see an object at infinity clearly
The net force does not depend on the mass.
We have 12N to the right, and 19N to the left.
The net force is (19.0-12.0)N=7.0N to the left.
Answer:
Since the maximum thermal efficiency is higher than 55 percent, there can be a power cycle with these reservoir temperature with an efficiency higher than 55 percent.
Explanation:
The maximum thermal efficiency is determined from the given temperature
nth Carnot = 1- TL/TH
Where TL= 17+273= 290k
TH= 627*273= 900K.
nth Carnot = 1- 290/900 = 0.68
0.68*100 = 68 percent
