Answer:
0.29 m/s due west.
Explanation:
According to newton's second law,
Net force acting on an object = mass×acceleration
From the question,
F+F₁+F₂ = ma................ Equation 1
Where F = The force generated from the engine, F₁ = Force exerted by the wind, F₂ = Force exerted due to the water, m = mass of the boat, a = acceleration of the boat.
Given: F = 4080 N , F₁ = -680 N(east), F₂ = -1160 N(east). m = 7660 kg
substitute into equation 1
4080-680-1160 = 7660(a)
2240 = 7660a
Therefore,
a = 2440/7660
a = 0.29 m/s due west.
Answer:
Part a)
distance = 112 miles
Part b)
current position = 112 miles from the position of town
Explanation:
Part a)
Since the distance marker is showing the distance between the town and the position of john at all time
so here we have
Part b)
Current position of John is given as
from the position of the town
Mercury has less mass than earth. So the answer is B
Answer:
k = 2.279
Explanation:
Given:
Magnitude of charge on each plate, Q = 172 μC
Now,
the capacitance, C of a capacitor is given as:
C = Q/V
where,
V is the potential difference
Thus, the capacitance due to the charge of 172 μC will be
C = 
Now, when the when the additional charge is accumulated
the capacitance (C') will be
C' = 
or
C' = 
now the dielectric constant (k) is given as:
substituting the values, we get
or
k = 2.279
Answer:
There is absolutely No relationship between the weight of an object (which is constant) and the frictional force. If a block is sliding on a surface, that surface will be exerting a force on the block. That force can be resolved into a component parallel to the surface (which we call the frictional component), and a component perpendicular to the surface (called the normal component). For many situations, we find experimentally that the frictional component is approximately proportional to the normal component. The frictional component divided by the normal component is defined to be a quantity called the coefficient of kinetic or sliding friction. The coefficient of kinetic friction obviously depends on the nature of the surfaces involved. The normal component on an object can be decreased if you pull in the direction of the normal component (the weight does not change). However pulling this way on the object not only decreases the normal component, but it also decreases the frictional component since they are proportional. This is why it is easier to slide something if you pull up on it while you push it. If you push down, the normal and frictional components increase so it is harder to slide the object. The weight of an object is the downward force exerted by Earth’s gravity on that object, and it does not change no matter how you push or pull on the object.
