You own a yacht which is 14.5 meters long. it is motoring down a canal at 10.6 m/s. its bow (the front of the boat) is just about to begin passing underneath a bridge that is 30.0 m across. how much time is required until its stern (the end of the boat) is no longer under the bridge?

4.198 seconds

Explanation:

The total length of the yacht is 30m and the width of the bridge is 14.5m.

The speed of the yacht is 10.6m/s.

We can assume the current of the canal has a speed of 0m/s.

To calculate the answer we will break it into two parts

1) The time it takes for the bow to travel from the start of the bridge to the end

Formula Speed = Distance / Time

Speed = 10.6m/s

Distance = 30m

Time = T1

T1 = 2.8301s

2) The time it takes for the stern to cross the end of the bridge after the bow

Formula Speed = Distance / Time

Speed = 10.6m/s

Distance = 14.5m

Time = T2

T2 = 1.3679s

3) The Total Time is

Total = T1 + T2

Total = 4.198s

i guess that visual aids present persuasive examples to what you are presenting, some factors would be theme (does it fit with the color, information, what you are presenting), size (can you see it, is it a big enough span of data/information), and overall look of the visual aid.

hope this : )

i wanna say it’s between b and d, leaning more towards b.
