A plane traveling north at 100.0 km/h through the air gets caught in a 40.0 km/h crosswind blowing west. This turbulence caused

a beverage cart to brake free and begin rolling at 20.0 km/h toward the tail of the plane. What is the velocity of the cart relative to the ground? (you do not have to convert these since they are all the same unit)

Answer:

The velocity \vec{v}_{c/g} of the cart with respect to the ground is

\vec{v}_{c/g}=-40\hat{x}+80\hat{y}\, km/h

if we consider North the positive y-direction and East the positive x-direction.

Explanation:

We have for relative motion the following expression:

\vec{v}_{c/g}=\vec{v}_{c/p}+\vec{v}_{p/g}

Where \vec{v}_{c/g} is the velocity of the cart with respect to the ground, \vec{v}_{c/p} is the velocity of the cart with respect to the plane and \vec{v}_{p/g} is the velocity of the plane with respect to the ground.

We find that:

\vec{v}_{c/p}=-20\hat{y}

\vec{v}_{p/g}=-40\hat{x}+100\hat{y}

Thus:

\vec{v}_{c/g}=-20\hat{y}-40\hat{x}+100\hat{y}=-40\hat{x}+80\hat{y} \, km/h

Suppose that a block of mass 2 kg is pulled to the right with a force of 10 N, and the friction force on the block is directed t
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The block has an acceleration of 3 m/s^{2}

Explanation:

By means of Newton's second law it can be determine the acceleration of the block.

\sum F_{r} = ma   (1)

Where \sum F_{r} represents the net force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

F_{x} + F{y} = ma  (2)

The forces present in x are F = 10 N and f = 4 N (the friction force):

F_{x} = 10 N - 4 N

Notice that f subtracts to F since it is at the opposite direction.

F_{x} = 6 N

The forces present in y balance each other:

F_{y} = 0

Therefore:

6 + 0 = ma  

6 N = (2kg)a  (3)

But 1 N = 1 Kg.m/s^{2} and writing (3) in terms of a it is get:

a = \frac{6 Kg.m/s^{2}}{2 Kg}  

a = 3 m/s^{2}

So the block has an acceleration of a = 3 m/s^{2}.

A boy rides a sled down a steep, snow.covered hill. Which of
Travka [436]

Answer:

a. Potential energy decreases and Kinetic energy increases

Explanation:

Because as he comes down due to its steepness the speed of the boy or you can say his KE increases and since he comes from a high position (hill) to the lower ground his potential energy decreases simultaneously

Canadian geese migrate essentially along a north-south direction for well over a thousand kilometers in some cases, traveling at
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

θ=19.877⁰

Explanation:

Given data

Velocity Va=34.0 km/h

Velocity Va=100 km/h

To find

Angle θ

Solution  

We want the bird to fly with velocity Vb=100 km/h with an angle θ relative to the ground so that the bird fly due south relative to the ground.From figure which is attached we got

Sinθ=(Va/Vb)

Sinθ=(34.0/100)

θ=Sin⁻¹(34.0/100)

θ=19.877⁰
