The figure below shows a man in a boat on a lake. The man's mass is 74 kg, and the boat's is 135 kg. The man and boat are initia
vazorg [7]

The velocity of the boat after the package is thrown is 0.36 m/s.

<h3>Final velocity of the boat</h3>

Apply the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

Pi = Pf

where;

  • Pi is initial momentum
  • Pf is final momentum

v(74 + 135) = 15 x 5

v(209) = 75

v = 75/209

v = 0.36 m/s

Thus, the velocity of the boat after the package is thrown is 0.36 m/s.

Bill leaves his 60 W desk lamp on every day, including weekends, for eight hours. After one month (30 days), how much total ener
maxonik [38]

' W ' is the symbol for 'Watt' ... the unit of power equal to 1 joule/second.

That's all the physics we need to know to answer this question.
The rest is just arithmetic.

(60 joules/sec) · (30 days) · (8 hours/day) · (3600 sec/hour)

= (60 · 30 · 8 · 3600) (joule · day · hour · sec) / (sec · day · hour)

= 51,840,000 joules

Wait a minute !  Hold up !  Hee haw !  Whoa ! 
Excuse me.  That will never do.
I see they want the answer in units of kilowatt-hours (kWh).
In that case, it's

(60 watts) · (30 days) · (8 hours/day) · (1 kW/1,000 watts)

= (60 · 30 · 8 · 1 / 1,000) (watt · day · hour · kW / day · watt)

= 14.4 kW·hour

Rounded to the nearest whole number:

14 kWh

What will happen to the charge and potential difference if the plate area were increased while the plate separation remains unch
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Potential difference and charge will also increase.

Explanation:

Asking that :

What will happen to the charge and potential difference if the plate area were increased while the plate separation remains unchanged?

The charge is directly proportional to area of the plate. That is, increase in area of the plate of a capacitor will lead to the increase in the charges between the plates.

And since charge is also proportional to the magnitude of potential difference between the plates from the definition of capacitance of a capacitor which says that:

Q = CV

Therefore, increase in the area of the plate will also lead to increase in potential difference between the plates.

Therefore, if the plate area were increased while the plate separation remains unchanged, the charge and potential difference between them will also increase.

A floating ice block is pushed through a displacement along a straight embankment by rushing water, which exerts a force on the
lions [1.4K]

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

A floating ice block is pushed through a displacement vector d = (15m)i - (12m)j along a straight embankment by rushing water, which exerts a force vector F = (210N)i - (150N)j on the block. How much work does the force do on the block during displacement?

Answer: W = 4950J

Explanation: <u>Work</u> (W), in physics, is done when a force acts on an object that has a displacement form a place to another:

W = F · d

As the formula shows, Work is a scalar product, i.e, it results in a number, so, Work only has magnitude.

Force and displacement for the ice block are in 2 dimensions, then work will be:

W = (210)i - (150)j · (15)i - (12)j

W = (210*15) + (150*12)

W = 3150 + 1800

W = 4950J

During the displacement, the ice block has a work of 4950J
