4. A speedboat travelling east is pulling two water skiers, using two ropes attached to the back comers of the boat. Each rope makes an angle of 30° on either side of the boat's axis. The force
exerted by each rope is 400 N. If the boat is moving in a straight line at constant speed, what
force must it be exerting to keep the pair of skiers moving? (Ignore friction) (4 marks)
Hint: When dealing with vectors break into components and deal with x/y directions separate.

Asmall electric heater, immersed in 80g of water in a calorimeter of 40j/k raises the temperature from 10.5 degree celsius to 25 degree celsius in 12 minutes. using the same apparatus with 50g of oil instead of water, it is found that the temperature of oil rises from 7 degree celsius to 27 degree celsius in 10 minutes. find specific heat capacity of the oil.
