The net force on a boat causes it to accelerate at 1.55 m/s2. The mass of the boat is 215 kg. The same net force causes another

boat to accelerate at 0.125 m/s2. (a) What is the mass of the second boat? (b) One of the boats is now loaded on the other, and the same net force is applied to this combined mass. What acceleration does it cause?

Answer:

2666 kg

0.11567 m/s²

Explanation:

m = Mass of boat

a = Acceleration of boat

From Newton's second law

Force

F=ma\\\Rightarrow F=215\times 1.55\\\Rightarrow F=333.25\ N

Force on the first boat is 333.25 N

F=ma\\\Rightarrow m=\frac{F}{a}\\\Rightarrow m=\frac{333.25}{0.125}\\\Rightarrow m=2666\ kg

Hence, mass of the second boat is 2666 kg

Combined mass = 2666+215 = 2881 kg

F=ma\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{F}{m}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{333.25}{2881}\\\Rightarrow a=0.11567\ m/s^2

The acceleration on the combined mass is 0.11567 m/s²

How much heat Q2Q2 is transferred to the skin by 25.0 gg of steam onto the skin? The heat of vaporization for steam is L=2.256×1
astraxan [27]

Answer:

56400Joules

Explanation:

The quantity of heat required is expressed as;

Q = mL

m is the mass = 25g = 0.025kg

L is the latent heat of vaporization for steam = 2.256×10^6J/kg

Substitute into the formula as shown;

Q = 0.025×2.256×10^6

Q = 56400Joules

Hence the quantity of hear required is 56400Joules

Calculate the amount of hcn that gives the lethal dose in a small laboratory room measuring 14 × 15 × 8.0ft. the density of air
vova2212 [387]
Since we are given the density and volume, then perhaps we can determine the amount in terms of the mass. All we have to do is find the volume in terms of cm³ so that it will cancel out with the cm³ in the density. The conversion is 1 ft = 30.48 cm. The solution is as follows:

V = (14 ft)(15 ft)(8 ft)(30.48 cm/1 ft)³ = 0.0593 cm³

The mass is equal to:
Mass = (0.00118g/cm³)(0.0593 cm³)
Mass = 7 grams of HCN

"if a stream flow measures 12 meters in 60 seconds, what is the stream's average rate of flow?"
Vlad [161]
<span>Discharge is the volume of water moving down a stream or river per unit of time, commonly expressed in cubic feet per second or gallons per day. In general, river discharge is computed by multiplying the area of water in a channel cross section by the average velocity of the water in that cross section: discharge = area * velocity. In this case, the answer is 0.2 m/s.</span>

A bicyclist of mass 112 kg rides in a circle at a speed of 8.9 m/s. If the radius of the circle is 15.5 m, what is the centripet
kogti [31]
The centripetal force, Fc, is calculated through the equation, 
                                    Fc = mv²/r
where m is the mass,v is the velocity, and r is the radius. 
Substituting the known values,
                                     Fc = (112 kg)(8.9 m/s)² / (15.5 m)
                                         = 572.36 N
Therefore, the centripetal force of the bicyclist is approximately 572.36 N.
