An air traffic controller observes two airplanes approaching the airport. The displacement from the control tower to plane 1 is

given by the vector A⃗ , which has a magnitude of 220 km and points in a direction 32 ∘ north of west. The displacement from the control tower to plane 2 is given by the vector B⃗ , which has a magnitude of 140 km and points 65 ∘ east of north.

We will use the Cosine Law:
m D² = A² + B² - 2 AB cos D
∠D = 65° + 58° = 123° 
m D² = 220² + 140² - 2 * 220 * 140 * cos 123°
m D² = 48,000 + 19,600 + 33,854.72
m D = 319.15 km
After that we will use the Sine Law:
340 / sin 123° = 220 / sin (theta)
sin (theta) = 0.578
∠(theta) = sin^(-1)0.578 = 35.3°
Answer: 
The magnitude of the vector D is 319.15 km and points 35.3° south to east.

How does energy transfer by waves differ from energy transfer by moving object
vodomira [7]
Energy transfer by waves: two primary modes = (electromagnetic waves, compression/transverse waves propagating through a medium)

1) electromagnetic waves:

Using a particle model for the wave (photons for light), energy transfer is similar to that by discrete moving object -- particles carry the energy from one place to another in the absence of a medium.

Energy delivery: discrete moving object uses inertia and momentum to transfer the energy from itself to the target. Photons are massless, so the energy delivery mechanism must be different.

2) compression/transverse waves propagating through a medium:

Energy passes through the medium with little to no net flow of the medium itself. In transverse water waves, when the energy wave passes by, to first order, the water particles move in vertical circular paths. This is different from energy transfer by a moving object in that the moving object must displace itself to the target position in order to deliver the energy -- resulting in a net flow of object material.

An electric clothes dryer draws 15 a of current from a 240-v wall outlet. how much power, in watts, does it use?
Nataly [62]
The power consumed by the electric clothes dryer may be calculated by the following equation,

    P = I x V

where P is the power, I is the current in amperes, and V is the voltage in volts. Substituting the known values from the given above,

  P = (15 A)(240 V)
  P = 3600 watts

Therefore, the power consumed by the electric clothes dryer is equal to 3600 watts.
