Find the magnitude and direction of the velocity of a canoe on a river, measured with respect to the river, given the
velocity of the canoe and the velocity of the current relative to the earth.

Answers

Answer 1

Assume that the canoe's velocity relative to the Earth is represented by vector v and the current's velocity relative to the Earth is represented by vector u. The canoe's velocity relative to the river, represented by vector v r, is then given by vector subtraction of v and u:

v r = v - u

The length of the vector v r, which is given by the Pythagorean theorem, is the magnitude of the canoe's velocity relative to the river:

sqrt((v x - u x)² + (v y - u y)²) |v r|

where v x and v y represent v's x- and y-components, and u x and u y represent u's x- and y-components.

The direction of the velocity of the canoe relative to the river is the angle that v_r makes with the x-axis. This angle is given by:

theta = atan2(v_y - u_y, v_x - u_x)

where atan2 is a function that returns the angle between the positive x-axis and the point (v_x - u_x, v_y - u_y).

Therefore, the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the canoe relative to the river can be found using the above equations.

Answers

When a boxer moves into an oncoming punch, the force experienced is (C) increased

The reason that moving into an oncoming punch increases the force experienced is due to the principles of momentum and force. When two objects collide, the total momentum of the system is conserved,

A boxer moving into an oncoming punch, the force experienced is increased. This is because the force of the punch is added to the force of the boxer's movement. When the boxer moves into the punch, the relative speed between the punch and the boxer is increased, which increases the momentum and thus the force of the impact.

The Perseverance Rover has a similar pendulum with a length of L/2. If the acceleration due to gravity on Mars is 1/3 the acceleration due to gravity on the Earth, what is the period of the Perseverance Rover's pendulum on Mars?

Answers

If the time period of the pendulum in earth is 1 seconds, then the length  L is 0.24 m. If length in mars is L/2 and acceleration due to gravity is 1/3rd of that of earth, the time period of the pendulum on mars is 1.216 seconds.

What is time period of oscillation ?

The time period of oscillation of a pendulum is the time taken to complete oscillation. It is related to the length l, and acceleration due to gravity g as:

T = 2π √l/g

T for earth = 1 s

g for earth = 9.8 m/s²

then l = T/4π² × g

l = 1/4π²× 9.8 m/s²

 = 0.24 m

If in mars L = L/2 = 0.24 /2 = 0.12 m

g = 9.8 m/s²/3 = 3.22m/s²

Then time period T = 2π × √0.12 m/3.22m/s²

The total sound power, in decibels, from x objects each producing 50 decibels of sound power is given by the function f(x) = 50 + 10 log x. Suppose each of the x objects increases its sound power by 10 decibels, so that the new total sound power, in decibels, is given by the function g(x) = f(x) + 10.

Answers

The new total sound power, in decibels, when each of the x objects increases its sound power by 10 decibels, is given by the function g(x) =

60 + 10 log x.

The original function is given as:

f(x) = 50 + 10 log x

When each of the x objects increases its sound power by 10 decibels, the new total sound power can be calculated as:

g(x) = f(x) + 10

= 50 + 10 log x + 10 (adding 10 to account for the increase in sound power of each object)

= 60 + 10 log x

Thus, the new function g(x) is given g(x) = f(x) + 10  which represents the total sound power in decibels produced by x objects each having a sound power of 60 decibels (50 decibels + 10 decibels increase). This function uses the logarithmic scale to calculate the total sound power, where each 10-fold increase in the number of objects corresponds to a 10-decibel increase in the total sound power.

When ABS activates do you need to pump the brakes?

Answers

No, when ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) activates, you do not need to pump the brakes.

ABS is a safety feature in modern cars that prevents the wheels from locking up during hard braking or in slippery conditions, which could cause the car to skid and lose control. When the ABS system detects that a wheel is about to lock up, it rapidly pulses the brakes on that wheel to prevent it from stopping rotating. This helps to maintain traction between the tires and the road, allowing the driver to maintain steering control and come to a stop safely. When ABS activates, you should keep your foot firmly on the brake pedal and let the system do its job. The pulsing or vibrations that you may feel in the brake pedal are normal and indicate that the ABS system is working properly. You should continue to steer the car in the desired direction and avoid any sudden movements, while the ABS system helps to slow down the car safely.

Pumping the brakes can actually interfere with the ABS system and reduce its effectiveness. So, it's important to trust the ABS system and let it do its job to ensure maximum safety during emergency braking situations.

Explanation:

how would the amount of incoming solar radiation change at the equator if earth’s axis were vertical instead of tilted?

Answers

If the Earth's axis were vertical instead of tilted, there would be no seasonal variation in the amount of incoming solar radiation at the equator.

Currently, the Earth's axis is tilted at an angle of approximately 23.5 degrees relative to its orbit around the sun. This causes the amount of incoming solar radiation at the equator to vary over the course of the year, with the highest amounts of incoming radiation occurring during the solstices and the lowest amounts occurring during the equinoxes.

If the axis were vertical, the amount of incoming solar radiation would be more consistent throughout the year, but the poles would receive less solar radiation overall.

Georgia’s Power charge for the month (30 days) if their going rate is 11 cents/kWhr wil be $1.82. the correct option is option B.

The energy used by the dryer in 30 minutes can be calculated as follows:

Energy used = Power x Time Energy used = 1.1 kW x 0.5 hours (30 minutes converted to hours)

Energy used = 0.55 kWh

The total energy used by the dryer in 30 days can be calculated as:

Total energy used = Energy used per day x Number of days Total energy used = 0.55 kWh/day x 30 days

Total energy used = 16.5 kWh

The cost of the energy used can be calculated as:

Cost = Total energy used x Rate Cost = 16.5 kWh x $0.11/kWh

Cost = $1.815

Therefore, the answer is (B) $1.82.

Imagine a planet moving in a perfectly circular orbit around the Sun, such that its distance from the Sun never changes. What does Kepler's Second Law say about this planet's orbital speed? Given that, is this planet experiencing an acceleration? In selecting your answer below, be sure to choose the correct response (Yes or No) AND the correct reason for that response.
Choose one:
A. Yes. Although Kepler's Second Law demands that a planet in a perfectly circular orbit has a constant orbital speed, the planet is still traveling in a curved path and so it is changing its direction of motion all the time. Changes in direction require accelerations. just like changes in speed do.B. No. Kepler's Second Law demands that this planet has a constant orbital speed, and if the speed is not changing, then there can be no acceleration present.C. No. Planets orbit in the vacuum of space and so do not experience forces non accelerations.D. Yes. Kepler's Second Law demands that this planet is always changing its orbital speed (going faster at some times, slower at others), and change in speed requires an acceleration.

Answers

A. Yes. Although a planet in a perfectly circular orbit must have a constant orbital speed according to Kepler's Second Law, the planet is still moving over a curved path, which causes it to constantly change its direction of motion. Much like with speed changes, direction changes call for accelerations.

How does Kepler's first law explain something?

The Sun is one of the orbital foci, according to Kepler's first law, and all the planets have elliptical orbits around it.

What is Kepler's second law used to explain?

The planets' motion through space changes at a constant rate, according to Kepler's second law. Planets accelerate as they approach the Sun, according to the second law.
