You are working at a radar station for the Coast Guard. While everyone else is out to lunch, you hear a distress call from a sinking ship. The ship is located at a distance of 51.2 km from the station, at a bearing of 36° west of north. On your radar screen you see the location of four other ships as follows: (in the figure)   Quick! which ship do you contact to help the sinking ship? Which ship will get there in the shortest time interval? Assume that each ship would accelerate quickly to its maximum speed and then maintain that constant speed in a straight line for the entire trip to the sinking ship.  ​

Electric Circuit and Components

An electrical circuit or electrical network is a pre-determined pathway to make the electrons flow in the desired direction. The flow of electrons will set up a current flow in the circuit. Normally, the flow of electrical current is opposite to the flow of electrons. An electron is a fundamental sub-atomic particle of an atom possessing a negative charge. To initiate the flow of current and achieve the desired output, the electrical circuit should necessarily be composed of closed pathways. The pathways are made-up of good conductors of electricity such as aluminium and copper.
