An airplane is heading south at a speed of 600km/h. If a wind begins blowing from the southwest at a speed of 100km/h, calculate

: a) The velocity (magnitude and direction) of the plane relative to the ground. b) How far away from its intended position will it be after 10min if the pilot takes no corrective action? c) In what direction should the pilot aim in order to fly due south?

Answer:

Here's what I got:

Let's assume that N and E are + directions while S and W are - directions.

Wind is blowing from SW; thus, it is blowing towards NE (or at 45 deg N of E).

Dividing the wind's speed into components:y-component: +70.71 km/h; x-component: +70.71 km/h

Dividing the airplane's speed into components:y-component: -600 km/h; x-component: 0 km/h

Adding the components to get the resulting components:y-component: -529.29 km/h; x-component: +70.71

Using the Pythagorean Theorem to find the resulting speed:v^2 = y^2 + x^2 so v = 533.99 km/h

To find the angle of direction, use arctan (y/x):arctan (529.29/70.71) = 82.39 deg

ANSWER: velocity = 533.99 km/h at 82.39 deg S of E

What is the potential energy of a 2 kg ball 15 m in the air?
oee [108]

Answer:

<h2>300 J</h2>

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

PE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 10 m/s²

From the question we have

PE = 2 × 10 × 15

We have the final answer as

<h3>300 J</h3>

Hope this helps you
