A pilot heads his jet due east. The jet has a speed of 475 mi/h relative to the air. The wind is blowing due north with a speed

of 30 mi/h. (Assume that the i vector points east, and the j vector points north.)
a. Express the velocity of the wind as a vector in component form.
b. Express the velocity of the jet relative to the air as a vector in component form.
c. Find the true velocity of the jet as a vector.
d. Find the true speed of the jet. (Round your answer to the nearest integer.)
e. Find the direction of the jet.

Answer:

a) V = 30j

b) U = 475i

c) W = 475i + 30j

d) true speed = 475.95mi/h

e) Direction = 3.62°

Explanation:

The speed of the jet is 475mi/h relative to air.

The wind speed is 30mi/h to the north.

a) The velocity of the wind represented by a ve tor v in component form is given by:

V = 30j

b) The velocity of the jet relative to the air represented by a vector U in component form is given by:

U = 475i

c) The true velocity of the jet as a vector W is represented as W is given by:

W = U + V = 475i + 30j

d) The true speed of the jet is given by:

W = Sqrt(475^2 +30^2)

W = Sqrt(225625 + 900)

W = Sqrt(226525)

W = 475.95mi/h

e) The direction of the jet is given by :

Theta = Tan^-1 (30/475)

Theta = Tan^-1(0.06316)

Theta = 3.62°

How will the electrostatic force between two electric charges change if the first charge is doubled and the second charge is onl
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

B) \frac{2}{3}

Explanation:

The electric force between charges can be determined by;

F = \frac{kq_{1} q_{2} }{r^{2} }

Where: F is the force, k is the Coulomb's constant, q_{1} is the value of the first charge, q_{2} is the value of the second charge, r is the distance between the centers of the charges.

Let the original charge be represented by q, so that;

q_{1} = 2q

q_{2} = \frac{q}{3}

So that,

F = q_{1}q_{2} x \frac{k}{r^{2} }

  = 2q x \frac{q}{3} x \frac{k}{r^{2} }

  = \frac{2q^{2} }{3} x \frac{k}{r^{2} }

  = \frac{2}{3} x \frac{kq}{r^{2} }

F = \frac{2}{3} x \frac{kq}{r^{2} }

The electric force between the given charges would change by \frac{2}{3}.

What does the Pauli exclusion principle state? . . A.Electrons will be added to an atom at the lowest possible level or sublevel
BARSIC [14]
The Pauli exclusion principle state that : D. Two electrons occupy the same orbital only if they have opposite spins

This happen because he stated that in an atom or molecule, two electrons CANNOT have same four electronic quantum numbers

Which statements provides evidence that the earth revolves around the sun
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

Different star constellations are visible from Earth at different seasons of the year.

Explanation:

The reason the fact that we can see different constellations in the sky during different seasons on earth is the most compelling reason we travel around the sun is because if the sun travelled around the earth, certain constellations would only be visible in certain places. You’d have to travel to see certain ones.

However, you don’t have to do that because we travel around the sun, therefore travelling around other stars too.
