Consider a plane that flies due east on a trip, and then returns due west following the same exact route. Imagine also that ther

e are no winds in each trip. Flying due east, the plane flies with the rotation of the Earth, while flying due west it flies against the rotation. Will the flight times be the same? Different? Why?

Answer:

Same

Explanation:

A plane that flies due east and in return flies due west following the exact same path. But the condition is there are no winds. Since, there are no wind the speed of travel of plane remains same irrespective of the direction of flight. Now since speed and distance are same (follows the same route), the time of flight will be also same. By same speed equal distances are traveled in equal time

Imagine a raindrop starting from rest in a cloud 2 km in the air. If it fell with no air friction at all, it would accelerate to
LenKa [72]

Answer:

2) 433 mph

Explanation:

The final velocity of the raindrop as it reaches the ground can be found by using the equation for a uniformly accelerated motion:

v^2 = u^2 + 2ad

where

v is the final velocity

u = 0 is the initial velocity (the raindrop starts from rest)

a = g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

d = 2 km = 2000 m is the distance covered

Solving for v,

v=\sqrt{u^2 +2gd}=\sqrt{0^2+2(9.8 m/s^2)(2000)}=198 m/s

And keeping in mind that

1 mile = 1609 metres

1 hour = 3600 s

The speed converted into miles per hour is

v=198 \frac{m}{s}\cdot \frac{3600 s/h}{1609 m/mi}=433 mph

An object hangs from a spring in a stable (equilibrium) position. The spring is pulled 3 feet downward and the object begins to
mote1985 [20]

The equation of the motion of this object is  \mathbf{y = 3 cos \Big [ \dfrac{ \pi}{2}(t -2) \Big ] }

<h3>What is oscillation?</h3>

An oscillation in a waveform is a periodic set of vibrations an object in the medium produces.

From  the parameters given:

  • The spring is pulled 3 feet down ward from the origin(equilibrium position) = -3
  • Time to complete one oscillation = 4 seconds

The angular velocity can be computed by using the formula:

\mathbf{\omega = \dfrac{2 \pi}{T}}

\mathbf{\omega = \dfrac{2 \pi}{4.0}}

The amplitude A from the oscillation is:

\mathbf{\Big|A \Big| = \Big|\dfrac{3 - (-3)}{2} \Big| = 3}

It implies that the vertical shift (D) is:

\mathbf{\dfrac{minimum + maximum}{2} = \dfrac{3+(-3)}{2} = 0}

However, by using the formula of the general form of a sinusoidal equation, we have:

\mathbf{y = A cos \Big [ \dfrac{2 \pi}{4}(t -2) \Big ] + 0}

\mathbf{y = 3 cos \Big [ \dfrac{ \pi}{2}(t -2) \Big ] }
