it can be said that  the speed of the east wind is

v=0.3608m/s

From the question we are told

A small boat sailed <u>straight </u>north out of a harbor in <em>strong </em>east wind (blowing from west to east).

After sailing for 120 minutes, it ended up hitting a buoy 60^\circ60 ∘ to the north-east of the harbor. If the straight-line distance between the buoy and the harbor is 3 km,

  • what is the speed of the east wind?.

<h3> the speed of the east wind</h3>

Generally the equation for the distance  is mathematically given as

BA=3000sin60

BA=2598.07m

Therefore

the speed of the east wind

V_w=\frac{BA}{120*60}\\\\V_w=\frac{2598.07}{120*60}

v=0.3608

Consider a uniform solid sphere of radius R and mass M rolling without slipping. Which form of its kinetic energy is larger, tra
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

A. Its translational kinetic energy is larger than its rotational kinetic energy.

Explanation:

Given that

Radius = R

Mass = M

We know that mass moment of inertia for the solid sphere

I=\dfrac{2}{5}MR^2

Lets take angular speed =ω

Linear speed =V

Condition for pure rolling , V= ω R

Rotation energy ,RE

RE=\dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2

RE=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{2}{5}MR^2\times \omega^2

RE=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{2}{5}MR^2\times \omega^2

RE=\dfrac{1}{5}\times MR^2\times \omega^2

RE=\dfrac{1}{5}\times MV^2

RE= 0.2  MV²

The transnational kinetic energy TE

TE=\dfrac{1}{2}MV^2

TE= 0.5 MV²

From above we can say that transnational energy is more than rotational energy.

Therefore the answer is A.

You carry a 20 N bag of dog food up a 6.0 m flight of stairs. How much work was done?
MariettaO [177]
Answer:
120 J

Explanation:


Formula Of Work= Work= Force x Displacement

Work= 20 N x 6.0

Work= 120 Joules

The reason I put joules because the Unit of work is joules
