The thrust of a certain boat’s engine generates a power of 10kW as the boat moves at constant speed 10ms through the water of a

lake. The magnitude of the drag force that is exerted on the boat’s hull as it is moving through the water is directly proportional to the boat's speed and is given by the equation F=kv. The increase in power needed for the boat to move through the lake at a constant speed of 12ms is : a. 0W b. 1440 W c. 4400 W 10,000 W e. 4,400 W

Answer:

The power increase is 4400 W.

Explanation:

Given data,

Power = 10 kW

Initial speed = 10 m/s

New speed = 12 m/s

The relevant equation is:

F=kv

It's known that,

The expression for power is,

P=Fv

Substituting the value of F into the formula gives

P=(kv)v

P=kv^2

P\propto v^2

Now we must determine the new power

By applying the power formula

\dfrac{P}{P'}=\dfrac{v^2}{v'^2}

Insert the value into the equation

\dfrac{10}{P'}=(\dfrac{10}{12})^2

P'=(\dfrac{12}{10})^2\times10

P'=14.4\ kW

Next, we calculate the change in power

Using the formula for power change

\Delta P=P'-P

Insert values into the equation

\Delta P=14.4-10

\Delta P=4.4\ kW

\Delta P=4.4\times1000

\Delta P=4400\ W

Thus, the change in power amounts to 4400 W.

8) A soccer goal is 2.44 m high. A player kicks the ball at a distance 10.0 m from the goal at an angle of 25.0°. The ball hits
Yuliya22 [3333]
The soccer ball's initial speed stands at 16.38 m/s. Given that the vertical distance is y = 2.44 m, the horizontal span x = 10.0 m, and the angle of launch θ = 25.0°. The initial velocity comprises two components, Vₓ and V. The calculations are as follows: Vₓ = V cosθ and V = V sinθ. The formula for horizontal distance becomes x = Vₓt. Since g is deemed 0, we can state that: x = Vₓt or 10 = V cos 25 * t. Solving for V gives us 10 = 0.906V * t, thus V * t = 10 / 0.906 = 11.038 m. Regarding the vertical distance (with g being negative due to the upward movement opposing gravity), we use y = V sinθ * t - 1/2 * g * t². Following through with the calculations leads us to determine that the soccer ball's initial speed is indeed 16.38 m/s.

An organ pipe open at both ends has a radius of 4.0 cm and a length of 6.0 m. what is the frequency (in hz) of the third harmoni
inna [3103]

When air is forced into the open pipe,

L = \frac{nλ}{2}

where n represents any whole number such as 1,2,3,4, etc., and λ denotes the wavelength of the oscillation

This implies λ=\frac{2L} {n}

It is important to note that n=1 corresponds to the fundamental frequency, n=2 corresponds to the first harmonic, and so forth.

Thus, the third harmonic will be for n=4

With L=6m and n=4, solving for λ yields:

λ=\frac{(2)*(6)}{4} =3m

The connection between frequency (f), sound speed (c), and wavelength (λ) is given by:

c=f.λ or f= \frac{c}{λ}

Therefore, f=\frac{344}{3}

≈115 Hz

Which, if any, of the following statements concerning the work done by a conservative force is NOT true? All of these statements
Yuliya22 [3333]

Answer:

If the starting and ending points are identical, the overall work equals zero.

Explanation:

Option (D) is correct.

A force is considered conservative when the work performed by it while moving an object from point A to point B does not rely on the path taken and remains consistent across all paths. The work done is determined solely by the initial and final locations of the particle. Thus, when the initial and final positions in a conservative field coincide, the work is said to be zero.

A child's toy is suspended from the ceiling by means of a string. The Earth pulls downward on the toy with its weight force of 8
serg [3582]
The reaction force is F = -8 N. It is noted that the Earth's gravitational force pulls the toy down with a weight of 8.0 N. This problem utilizes Newton's third law of motion, which states that "for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." In a mathematical context, it is illustrated as follows: where the force exerted on one object by another is indicated. In this scenario, the force of Earth acting on the toy is the action force. Consequently, the reaction force is characterized as F = -8 N (the negative indicates that the reaction force is directed upward). In essence, the toy exerts an upward force of 8 N on the Earth, thus comprising the required solution.

A standard baseball has a circumference of approximately 23 cm . if a baseball had the same mass per unit volume as a neutron or
Softa [3030]

Answer:

 Baseball mass:  m_b=3.992*10^{14}kg  

Explanation:

 Circumference of a baseball is calculated using 2πr = 23 cm

 Thus, the radius comes out to be 3.66 cm, which equals 3.66*10^{-2} m

 The mass density of the baseball matches that of a neutron or proton.

 Proton mass = 10^{-27} kg  

 Proton diameter = 10^{-15} m

 Proton radius =  5*10^{-16} m

 Volume of the baseball is \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3

 Now by substituting all values into the mass per unit volume equation for the baseball, we get:  

         \frac{m_b}{\frac{4}{3}\pi *(3.66*10^{-2})^3} =\frac{10^{-27}}{\frac{4}{3}\pi *(5*10^{-16})^3}

         \frac{m_b}{(3.66*10^{-2})^3} =\frac{10^{-27}}{(5*10^{-16})^3}  

         m_b=3.992*10^{14}kg

       Therefore, the baseball mass amounts to m_b=3.992*10^{14}kg
