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:
Explanation:
Let m be mass of each sphere and θ be angle, string makes with vertex in equilibrium.
Let T be tension in the hanging string
T cosθ = mg ( for balancing in vertical direction )
for balancing in horizontal direction
Tsinθ = F ( F is force of repulsion between two charges sphere)
Dividing the two equations
Tanθ = F / mg
tan17 = F / (7.1 x 10⁻³ x 9.8)
F = 21.27 x 10⁻³ N
if q be charge on each sphere , force of repulsion between the two
F = k q x q / r² ( r is distance between two sphere , r = 2 x .7 x sin17 = .41 m )
21.27 x 10⁻³ = (9 X 10⁹ x q²) / .41²
q² = .3973 x 10⁻¹²
q = .63 x 10⁻⁶ C
no of electrons required = q / charge on a single electron
= .63 x 10⁻⁶ / 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹
= .39375 x 10¹³
3.9375 x 10¹² .
Answer:
0.6 m
Explanation:
When a spring is compressed it stores potential energy. This energy is:
Ep = 1/2 * k * x^2
Being x the distance it compressed/stretched.
When the spring bounces the ice cube back it will transfer that energy to the cube, it will raise up the slope, reaching a high point where it will have a speed of zero and a potential energy equal to what the spring gave it.
The potential energy of the ice cube is:
Ep = m * g * h
This is vertical height and is related to the distance up the slope by:
sin(a) = h/d
h = sin(a) * d
Replacing:
Ep = m * g * sin(a) * d
Equating both potential energies:
1/2 * k * x^2 = m * g * sin(a) * d
d = (1/2 * k * x^2) / (m * g * sin(a))
d= (1/2 * 25 * 0.1^2) / (0.05 * 9.81 * sin(25)) = 0.6 m
Answer:
a = Δv/t = (vf - vi)/t = (0 - 5)/4 = -1.25 m/s²
Explanation:
You may or may not need the negative sign, depending on how the question designer was thinking about the problem.
