A sailboat moves west for 150.00 km while blown by a wind from the northeast (60 degrees relative to the east) at a force of 6.4 x 10^3 N. The sailboat travels the distance in 12.0 hours. a. How much work was done by the wind? Show your calculations.

b. What was the wind’s power? Show your calculations

c. Include a diagram (you can use the drawing tools of your computer or submit a hand-drawn sketch)

We found the centripetal acceleration of the earth as it revolves around the sun. compute the centripetal acceleration of a point on the surface of the earth at the equator caused by the rotation of the earth about its axis. (enter the magnitude. the radius of the earth is 6,371 km.)

Starting with only the balmer series light (visible light), how could we ensure that the solar panels generate a current that mark can use for his power station? a)by gradually increasing the brightness (amount) of light that we shine on it. b)by gradually increasing the frequency of the light we shine on it. c)by gradually increasing the wavelength of the light that we shine on it.

Afisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surface of the water. it takes a time of 2.20 s for the boat to travel from its highest point to its lowest, a total distance of 0.670 m . the fisherman sees that the wave crests are spaced a horizontal distance of 5.80 m apart. (a) how much is the wavelength? (b) find the period of the wave. (c) how fast are the waves traveling? (d) what is the amplitude a of each wave?
