Answer:

1500 mph

Explanation:

Take east to be +x and north to be +y.

The x component of the velocity is:

vₓ = 889 cos 0° + 830 cos 59°

vₓ = 1316.5 mph

The y component of the velocity is:

vᵧ = 889 sin 0° + 830 sin 59°

vᵧ = 711.4 mph

The speed is found with Pythagorean theorem:

v² = vₓ² + vᵧ²

v² = (1316.5 mph)² + (711.4 mph)²

v = 1496 mph

Rounded to two significant figures, the jet's speed relative to the ground is 1500 mph.

The velocities of light in air and glass are 3.0 x 10^8ms and 2.0×10^8ms respectively. If the angle of refraction is 30°, the si

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

0.75

Explanation:

$refractive \: index \: = \frac{3.0 \times {10}^{2} }{2.0 \times {10}^{2} }$

= 1.5

$refractive \: index = \frac{ \sin(angle \: of \: incidence) }{ \sin(angle \: of \: refraction) }$

$1.5 = \ \frac{ \sin(i) }{ \sin(30) }$

1.5 × ½ = sin(i)

$\sin(i) = 0.75$

Which of the following is NOT a geological event caused by the movement of tectonic plates?

photoshop1234 [79]

The answer is A. Mountains form because tectonic plates overlap. Earthquakes form because of the moving of tectonic plates. The moving of tectonic plates causes holes in the crust so magma from the mantle escapes and erupts from volcanoes. I hope I helped!

8. John has to hit a bottle with a ball to win a prize. He throws a 0.4 kg ball with a velocity of 18 m/s. It hits a 0.2 kg bott

nasty-shy [4]

Answer: The ball is travelling with a speed of 5.5 m/s after hitting the bottle.

Explanation:

To calculate the speed of ball after the collision, we use the equation of law of conservation of momentum, which is given by:

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

where,

$m_1,u_1\text{ and }v_1$ are the mass, initial velocity and final velocity of ball.

$m_2,u_2\text{ and }v_2$ are the mass, initial velocity and final velocity of bottle.

We are given:

$m_1=0.4kg\\u_1=18m/s\\v_1=?m/s\\m_2=0.2kg\\u_2=0m/s\\v_2=25m/s$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$(0.4\times 18)+(0.2\times 0)=(0.4\times v_1)+(0.2\times 25)\\\\v_1=5.5m/s$

Hence, the ball is travelling with a speed of 5.5 m/s after hitting the bottle.
