Does wind have atoms and molecules in it?
Likurg_2 [28]
<span>
Of course.  Wind is air in motion, and the gases in air are composed of
all the usual familiar stuff ... atoms, molecules, mass, etc.  That's how
the wind moves things ... it has momentum and kinetic energy, which
get transferred to the things that move in the wind.</span>

An 81.5-kg man stands on a horizontal surface.
OLga [1]

Answer:

a)V= 0.0827 m³

b)P=181.11 x 10²  N/m²

Explanation:

Given that

m = 81.5 kg

Density ,ρ = 985 kg/m³

As we know that

Mass = Volume x Density

81.5 = V x 985

V= 0.0827 m³

The force exerted by weight = m g

 F= m g= 81.5 x 10 = 815 N      ( Take ,g= 10 m/s²)

Area ,A= 4.5 x 10⁻² m²

The Pressure P

P=\dfrac{F}{A}

P = \dfrac{815}{4.5\times 10^{-2}}\ N/m^2

P=181.11 x 10²  N/m²

Flying against the wind, an airplane travels 2670 km in 3 hours. Flying with the wind, the same plane travels 11,070 km in 9 hou
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

speed of plane in still air = 1060 km/h

speed of wind = 170 km/h

Explanation:

Let teh speed of plane in still air is vp and the speed of air is va.

Irt travels 2670 km in 3 hours against the wind

So,

vp - va = 2670 / 3 = 890 km/h ..... (1)

It travels 11070 km in 9 hours along the wind.

vp + va = 11070 / 9 = 1230 km/h .... (2)

Adding both the equations

2 vp = 2120

vp = 1060 km/h

and va = 1230 - vp = 1230 - 1060 = 170 km/h
