Transverse wave as the wave is going up and down no compressions
To solve this problem, we must imagine that Jim’s initial
position, the position of the rock, and Jim’s final position all connects to
form a triangle. Now we can imagine that the triangle is a right triangle with
the 90° angle on the initial position.
The angle of 30° is directly opposite to the length of his
total stride while the width of the river is the side adjacent to the angle.
Therefore can use the tan function to solve for the width of the river:
tan θ = opposite side / adjacent side
tan 30 = total stride distance / width of river
where total stride distance = 65 * 0.8 = 52 m
width of river = 52 m / tan 30
<span>width of river = 90.07 m</span>
First, torque is equal to force times the distance. for the first force that is applied, the torque is zero because is applied at the hinge. so the net torque:
t = ( 12 N ) ( 0 m ) ( cos 30 ) + ( 12 N ) ( 1.68 m ) cos 45
t = 14.26 Nm is the torque with respect to the hinge

V=65g/5.42g/ml
V=11.92ml
