Here it is given that speed of migrating Robin is 12 m/s relative to air

so we can say that

\vec v_{ra} = 12 m/s North

so it will be

Let North direction is along Y axis and East direction is along X axis

\vec v_{ra} = 12\hat j

also it is given that speed of air is 6.7 m/s relative to ground

\vec v_a = 6.7 \hat i

now as we know by the concept of relative motion

\vec v_{ab} = \vec v_a - \vec v_b

\vec v_{ra} = \vec v_r  - \vec v_a

now by rearranging the terms

\vec v_r = \vec v_{ra} + \vec v_a

\vec v_r = 12 \hat j + 6.7 \hat i

now we need to find the speed of Robin which means we need to find the magnitude of its velocity which we found above

So here we will say

v_r = \sqrt{12^2 + 6.7^2}

v_r = 13.7 m/s

so the net speed of Robin with respect to ground will be 13.7 m/s

A 3.50-meter length of wire with a cross-sectional area of 3.14 × 10-6 meter2 is at 20° Celsius. If the wire has a resistance of
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

5.6\times 10^{-8}\ Ohm.m

Explanation:

Resistivity is given by \rho=\frac {AR}{L} where A is cross-sectional area, R is resistance, L is the length and \rho is the reistivity. Substituting 0.0625 for R, 3.14 × 10-6 for A and 3.5 m for L then the resistivity is equivalent to

\rho=\frac {3.14\times 10^{-6}\times 0.0625}{3.5}=5.60714285714285714285714285714285714285\times 10^{-8}\approx 5.6\times 10^{-8}\ Ohm.m

While a roofer is working on a roof that slants at 39.0 degrees above the horizontal, he accidentally nudges his 88.0 N toolbox,
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

V= 6.974 m/s

Explanation:

Component( box) weight acting parallel and down roof 88(sin39.0°)=55.4 N

Force of kinetic friction acting parallel and up roof = 18.0 N

Fnet force acting on tool box acting parallel and down roof

Fnet= 55.4 - 18.0

Fnet=37.4 N

acceleration of tool box down roof

a = 37.4(9.81)/88.0

a= 4.169 m/s²

d = 4.90 m

t = √2d/a

t= √2(4.90)/4.169

t= 1.662 s

V = at

V= 4.169(1.662)

V= 6.974 m/s

What is the kinetic energy of a 0.135 kg baseball thrown at 40 m/s
Ronch [10]
KE = 1/2 * m * v^2
KE = 1/2 * 0.135 * 40^2
KE = 1/2 * 0.135 * 1600
KE = 108 J
