Answer:
Explanation:
The tidal current flows to the east at 2.0 m/s and the speed of the kayaker is 3.0 m/s.
Let Vector
is the tidal current velocity as shown in the diagram.
In order to travel straight across the harbor, the vector addition of both the velocities (i.e the resultant velocity,
must be in the north direction.
Let
is the speed of the kayaker having angle \theta measured north of east as shown in the figure.
For the resultant velocity in the north direction, the tail of the vector
and head of the vector
must lie on the north-south line.
Now, for this condition, from the triangle OAB




Hence, the kayaker must paddle in the direction of
in the north of east direction.
Answer:
1.2 amps :)
Explanation:
A heater has a resistance of 10.0 Ω. It operates on a 12.0 V. What is the current through the resistor?
Known:
Unknown:
I = V/R
= 12.0 V / 10.0 Ω
= 1.2 amps
Answer:
169.74 N
Explanation:
Given,
Mass of the girl = 30 Kg
angle of the rope with vertical, θ = 30°
equating the vertical component of the tension
vertical component of the tension is equal to the weight of the girl.
T cos θ = m g
T cos 30° = 30 x 9.8
T = 339.48 N
Tension on the two ropes is equal to 339.48 N
Tension in each of the rope = T/2
= 339.48/2 = 169.74 N
Hence, the tension in each of the rope is equal to 169.74 N
Answer:
a)W= - 720 J
b)ΔU= 330 J
Explanation:
Given that
P = 0.8 atm
We know that 1 atm = 100 KPa
P = 80 KPa
V₁ = 12 L = 0.012 m³ ( 1000 L = 1 m³)
V₂ = 3 L = 0.003 m³
Q= - 390 J ( heat is leaving from the system )
We know that work done by gas given as
W = P (V₂ -V₁ )
W= 80 x ( 0.003 - 0.012 ) KJ
W= - 0.72 KJ
W= - 720 J ( Negative sign indicates work done on the gas)
From first law of thermodynamics
Q = W + ΔU
ΔU=Change in the internal energy
Now by putting the values
- 390 = - 720 + ΔU
ΔU= 720 - 390 J
ΔU= 330 J
Answer:
20 pig callers
Explanation:
Given that:
A pig caller produced intensity level of a sound = 107 dB
To find how many pig callers required to generate an intensity level of 120 dB;
we have:
120 dB - 107 dB = 13 dB
Taking the logarithm function;

where;
= initial intensity


I = 19.95
I ≅ 20 pig callers
