An airplane flies at an altitude of 36,000 km and is traveling at a velocity of 300.0 km/h to the north, but the tailwind is 20.

Just a heads up, it's actually 320 km/h N. The verified answerer did not pay attention to the last sentence. Since it is about vectors, you must include the direction of the magnitude.

Vectors quantity have magnitude and direction, which means that they can be solved arithmetically with their corresponding signs. In this case, we can simply add the two velocities to get for the final velocity of the plane. But first let us determine the signs of each velocity value.

As a reference, we take the direction of the plane to be going the positive y-axis. Therefore it is going up and positive. Now take note that the wind is a “tailwind” which means that the wind is going WITH the direction of the plane, therefore it is also a positive. Now knowing that, we can add the two:

Final velocity = 300 km / hr + 20 km / hr

Final velocity = 320 km / hr

Consider this row in the periodic table of elements. Which element(s) are most likely to conduct electricity?
Sidana [21]

A) lithium and beryllium

Explanation:

From the given row on the periodic table, only lithium and beryllium will conduct electricity.

What makes a substance able to conduct electricity?

  • The presence of free mobile electrons and in some, ions allows them to carry electric currents.

Metals are generally known to be good conductors of heat and electricity. This is because, metals have a large pool of electrons i.e free mobile electrons. They are electropositive with a large size and readily release their electrons for conduction.

Lithium and Beryllium are in the metallic block on the periodic table.

A +0.2 µC charge is in an electric field. What happens if that charge is replaced by a +0.4 µC charge?
AleksandrR [38]

Explanation:

It is known that electric field is responsible for creating electric potential. As a result, it depends only on the electric field and not on the magnitude of charge.

So, when a charge is increased by a factor of 2 then electric potential will remain the same. Since, expression to calculate the electric potential is as follows.

                 U = qV

Since, the electric potential is directly proportional to the charge. Hence, when 0.2 \mu C tends to replaced by 0.4 \mu C then charge is increased by a factor of 2. Hence, the electric potential energy is doubled.

Thus, we can conclude that if that charge is replaced by a +0.4 µC charge then electric potential stays the same, but the electric potential energy doubles.

Starting from rest, a basketball rolls from the top to the bottom of a hill, reaching a translational speed of 6.1 m/s. Ignore f
tatiyna

Answer:

a) h=3.16 m, b)  v_{cm }^ = 6.43 m / s

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we can use the conservation of mechanical energy

Starting point. Highest on the hill

           Em₀ = U = mg h

final point. Lowest point

           Em_{f} = K

Scientific energy has two parts, one of translation of center of mass (center of the sphere) and one of stationery, the sphere

           K = ½ m v_{cm }^{2} + ½ I_{cm} w²

angular and linear speed are related

           v = w r

           w = v / r

            K = ½ m v_{cm }^{2} + ½ I_{cm} v_{cm }^{2} / r²

            Em_{f} = ½ v_{cm }^{2} (m + I_{cm} / r2)

as there are no friction losses, mechanical energy is conserved

             Em₀ = Em_{f}

             mg h = ½ v_{cm }^{2} (m + I_{cm} / r²)         (1)

             h = ½ v_{cm }^{2} / g (1 + I_{cm} / mr²)

for the moment of inertia of a basketball we can approximate it to a spherical shell

             I_{cm} = ⅔ m r²

we substitute

            h = ½ v_{cm }^{2} / g (1 + ⅔ mr² / mr²)

            h = ½ v_{cm }^{2}/g    5/3

             h = 5/6 v_{cm }^{2} / g

           

let's calculate

           h = 5/6 6.1 2 / 9.8

           h = 3.16 m

b) this part of the exercise we solve the speed of equation 1

          v_{cm }^{2} = 2m gh / (1 + I_{cm} / r²)

in this case the object is a frozen juice container, which we can simulate a solid cylinder with moment of inertia

              I_{cm} = ½ m r²

we substitute

             v_{cm } = √ [2gh / (1 + ½)]

             v_{cm } = √(4/3 gh)

let's calculate

             v_{cm } = √ (4/3 9.8 3.16)

             v_{cm }^ = 6.43 m / s

If velocity is decreasing,then acceleration:
ziro4ka [17]
If velocity is decreasing, then acceleration is in the direction
opposite to the velocity.

If the object is moving in the direction that you call 'positive',
then acceleration is negative.
