A jet airliner moving initially at 612 mph (with respect to the ground) to the east moves into a region where the wind is blowin
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

966.22 mph

Explanation:

Velocity of plane with respect to wind (Vp,w)= 612 mph east

velocity of wind with respect to ground, (Vw,g) = 362 mph at 15° North of

east

Write the velocities in vector form

V_{p,w}=612\widehat{i}

V_{w,g}=362\left ( Cos15\widehat{i}+Sin15\widehat{j} \right )= 349.67\widehat{i}+93.69\widehat{j}

Use the formula for the relative velocity

V_{p,w}=V_{p,g}-V_{w,g}

Where, V(p,w) is the velocity of plane with respect to wind

V(p,g) is the velocity of plane with respect to ground

V(w,g) is the velocity of wind with respect to ground

So, V_{p,g}=V_{p,w}+V_{w,g}

V_{p,g}=\left ( 612+349.67 \right )\widehat{i}+93.69\widehat{j}

V_{p,g}=961.67\widehat{i}+93.69\widehat{j}

Magnitude of velocity of lane with respect to ground

V_{p,g} = \sqrt{961.67^{2}+93.69^{2}}

V(p,g) = 966.22 mph

Which of the following processes generated heat during earths formation that is still a source of heat in earths interior
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

  • There are three main sources of heat in the deep earth: (1) heat from when the planet formed and accreted, which has not yet been lost; (2) frictional heating, caused by denser core material sinking to the center of the planet; and (3) heat from the decay of radioactive elements

An electrical current flowing through a filament bulb causes it to get hot. Explain why this
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

The reason the filament heats up is because it has a high resistance, which means that as electrons move through the filament, they lose a lot of energy.

First, what is current? Current is comprised of electrons moving through an electric field from a high electric potential to a lower potential. For the current to decrease then, something would need to happen to the electrons that go into the light bulb.  If 1 electron goes into the light bulb, then at the end of everything I need to still have 1 electron someplace. So how do electrons passing through the bulb make light?

Incandescent light bulbs have a small filament which when heated begins to glow and emit light.  The reason the filament heats up is because it has a high resistance, which means that as electrons move through the filament, they lose a lot of energy.  You can think of it as walking on a sidewalk compared to walking in waist deep water.  A wire is like a sidewalk. It has some resistance, but it is so tiny that it can generally be ignored which is why wires are useful in electronic circuits. The high resistance of the light bulb is like trying to walk through waist deep water.  Here energy is being taken from the electrons because of the interactions with the atoms in filament which causes those atoms to heat up, which in turn makes them emit light.

The light bulb is not doing anything to the electrons, so we expect then that any electrons going into the bulb should come out the other side. Since current is just flowing electrons, current stays the same.

Since current is the same on both sides, we know that the electrons are all moving together. Think of it like being in a big loop of people. Since everyone is in a big line you could imagine that you could only move as fast as the slowest person in the line. If everyone is on a big loop of sidewalk then everyone could run around in a circle. This is like having a large current in a loop of wire, or what we call a short. To put the equivalent of a lightbulb into our human circuit, imagine that one section of the sidewalk dips into a pool of water. Now everyone is stuck going as fast as the people trudging through the water. This is why current everywhere in a circuit is smaller when a resistor is introduced. As people trudge through the water they have to work hard to get through the water and they use energy.  In a circuit, this energy comes from the voltage source, like a battery.  The battery loses energy because it has to "pull" the electrons through the high resistance, and this is why the voltage drops across the light bulb

An environmentally-conscious student is breaking the rings from a six-pack drink holder before disposing of it. This reduces the
katrin2010 [14]

Answer: seen below.

Explanation:

Firstly we need to remember what exothermic reaction is in thermodynamics. exothermic reaction describes a process or reaction that releases energy from the system to its surroundings, usually in the form of heat, but also in a form of light, sound, or electricity.

In this scenario, due to the heating up nature noticed by the ring during breaking shows that energy is being released to the surrounding in the form of heat which suggest it being an exothermic reaction.
