Let volume of empty boat be = 100% = 1V

and mass of boat be M

In water 10%, 0.1V of the volume is submerged.

Mass, m of 1200kg increases the submerging from 10%, 0.1V to 70%, 0.7V

M leads to 0.1V boat submerging

boat submerging.

M + 1200kg leads to 0.7V boat submerging.

This is 60%, 0.6 V increase

By comparison

(M+1200kg) * 0.1V = 0.7V * M

0.1M + 120kg = 0.7M

120kg = 0.7M - 0.1M

120kg = 0.6M

M = (120/0.6)kg

M = 200kg.

The mass of the boat is 200kg.

Two long, straight wires are separated by 0.120 m. The wires carry currents of 11 A in opposite directions, as the drawing indic
rewona [7]

Answer:

The magnitude of the magnetic field is 1.83 x 10^{-5} T.

Explanation:

The flow of an electric current in a straight wire induces magnetic field around the wire. When current is flowing through two wires in the same direction, a force of attraction exists between the wires. But if the current flows in opposite directions, the force of repulsion is felt by the wires.

In the given question, the direction of flow of current through the wires is opposite, thus both wires applies the same field on each other. The result to repulsion between them.

The magnetic field (B) between the given wires can be determined by:

B = \frac{U_{o}I }{2\pi r}

where: I is the current, r is the distance between the wires and U_{0} is the magnetic field constant.

But, I = 11 A, r = 0.12 m and U_{0} = 4\pi x 10^{-7} Tm/A

So that;

B = \frac{4\pi *10^{-7}*11 }{2\pi *0.12}

   = 1.8333 x 10^{-5}

B = 1.83 x 10^{-5} T

When two waves interact with their crests and troughs in alignment is called?
marissa [1.9K]

When two waves interact with their crests and troughs in alignment is called constructive interference. If two waves of the same wavelength occupy the same space in such a way that their crests and troughs align, the wave they produce will have an amplitude greater than that possessed by either wave initially. This is known as constructive interference. The more closely the waves are in phase—that is, perfectly aligned—the more constructive the interference.
