A kayaker needs to paddle north across a 100-m-wide harbor. The tide is going out, creating a tidal current that flows to the east at 2.0 m/s. The kayaker can paddle with a speed of 3.0 m/s. In which direction should he paddle in order to travel straight across the harbor? How long will it take him to cross?

The car hoist allows the car to be driven onto the platform, after which the rear wheels are raised. if the loading from both rear wheels is 1380 lb, determine the force in the hydraulic cylinder ab. neglect the weight of the platform itself. member bcd is a right-angle bell crank pinned to the ramp at c. the force is positive if in tension, negative if in compression.

Astudent is performing an experiment comparing sound and light waves. the student gathers the following data. what conclusion does the student most likely make based on this data? light waves always travel the same speed; however, the speed of sound is determined by the medium that it travels through. all sound waves always have the same energy, so the temperature of the medium does not affect wave speed. light needs to vibrate particles, so it travels fastest in tightly packed solids, while sound does not need a medium, so it travels fastest in a gas. tightly packed particles in solids slow down the light waves; however, sound waves make particles bounce into each other, so they travel faster in solids.

A26 cm object is 18 cm in front of a plane mirror. a ray of light strikes the object and is reflected off the mirror at a 42-degree angle. what is the angle of reflection? degrees what type of image is formed? what is the size of the image? cm
