A boat is traveling at an initial velocity of 2.7 meters per second in the positive direction. It accelerates at a rate of 0.15

meters per second squared for 12 seconds. What is the final velocity of the boat?

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 4.5 \ m/s \ in \ the \ positive \ direction}}$

Explanation:

We are asked to find the final velocity of the boat.

We are given the initial velocity, acceleration, and time. Therefore, we will use the following kinematic equation.

$v_f= v_i + at$

The initial velocity is 2.7 meters per second. The acceleration is 0.15 meters per second squared. The time is 12 seconds.

$v_i$ = 2.7 m/s
a= 0.15 m/s²
t= 12 s

Substitute the values into the formula.

$v_f = 2.7 \ m/s + (0.15 \ m/s^2)(12 \ s)$

Multiply the numbers in parentheses.

$v_f= 2.7 \ m/s + (0.15 \ m/s/s * 12 \ s)$

$v_f = 2.7 \ m/s + (0.15 \ m/s *12)$

$\v_f=2.7 \ m/s + (1.8 \ m/s)$ $v_f=2.7 \ m/s + (1.8 \ m/s)$

Add.

$v_f=4.5 \ m/s$

The final velocity of the boat is <u>4.5 meters per second in the positive direction.</u>

An 18.5-cm-diameter loop of wire is initially oriented perpendicular to a 1.5-T magnetic field. The loop is rotated so that its

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

The average induced emf in the loop is 0.20 V

Explanation:

Given:

Radius of loop $r = \frac{d}{2} = 9.25 \times 10^{-2}$ m

Magnetic field $B = 1.5$ T

Change in time $\Delta t = 0.20$ sec

According to the faraday's law,

Induced emf is given by

$\epsilon = -\frac{\Delta \phi}{\Delta t}$

Where $\phi =$ magnetic flux

$\phi = BA\cos0$ ( here $\theta = 0$ )

Where $A = \pi r^{2}$

We neglect minus sign because it's shows lenz law

$\epsilon = \frac{B \pi r^{2} }{\Delta t}$

$\epsilon = \frac{1.5 \times 3.14 \times (9.25 \times 10^{-2} )^{2} }{0.20}$

$\epsilon = 0.20$ V

Therefore, the average induced emf in the loop is 0.20 V

2. Three blocks, A,B and C of mass 2kg. 3kg. 5kg respectively kept side by side with one another are accelerated at 2m/s2 across

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Total mass of combination = 2+3+5 = 10kg.

Acceleration produced = 2m/s^2

hence force =( total mass × acceleration)= (2×10)= 20 N.

Net force on 3kg block = acceleration × mass = (2 × 2 )= 4 N

applied force on 2 kg block = 20N

Force between 2 kg and 3 kg block = (20-4) = 16N. ans

Net force on 3 kg block = 3 × 2 =6N.

Applied force on 3 kg block due to 2 kg block = 16N.

hence, force between 3 kg and 5 kg block = (16-6) = 10N .

answers:-

(a) 20 N

(b) 16N

(c) 10 N

Two ships of equal mass are 110 m apart. What is the acceleration of either ship due to the gravitational attraction of the othe

dusya [7]

Answer:

Acceleration of the ship, $a=2.14\times 10^{-7}\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of both ships, $m=39000\ metric\ tons=39\times 10^6\ kg$

Distance between two ships, d = 110 m

The gravitational force between two ships is given by :

$F=G\dfrac{m^2}{d^2}$

$F=6.67\times 10^{-11}\ Nm^2/kg^2\times \dfrac{(39\times 10^6\ kg)^2}{(110\ m)^2}$

F = 8.38 N

Let a is the acceleration. Now, using second law of motion as :

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}$

$a=\dfrac{8.38\ N}{39\times 10^6\ kg}$

$a=2.14\times 10^{-7}\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of either ship due to the gravitational attraction of the other is $2.14\times 10^{-7}\ m/s^2$ . Hence, this is the required solution.
