Answer:

the direccion is θ = tan⁻¹ (Vw/Va)

Explanation:

The speed of the airplane is found by means of the sum of the two vectors, the airplane speed Va and the wind speed Vw.

The magnitude of the total velocity, we find it using the Pythagore  triangle

V = √(Va² + Vw²)

And the angle with respect to the north is

<h3>θ = tan⁻¹ (Vw/Va)</h3><h3 />

The direction is something between west and north. That is, a heading between 270 and 360. The exact direction depends on the airplane's airspeed and the wind speed.

A disk shaped grindstone of mass 3.0 kg and radius 8 cm is spinning at 600 rpm. After the power is shut off the frictional torqu
seropon [69]

Answer:

\theta=50\ revolution

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the grindstone, m = 3 kg

Radius of the grindstone, r = 8 cm = 0.08 m

Initial speed of the grindstone, \omega_i=600\ rpm=62.83\ rad/s

Finally it shuts off, \omega_f=0

Time taken, t = 10 s

Let \alpha is the angular acceleration of the grindstone. Using the formula of rotational kinematics as :

\alpha =\dfrac{\omega_f-\omega_i}{t}

\alpha =\dfrac{0-62.83}{10}

\alpha =-6.283\ rad/s^2

Let \theta is the number of revolutions of the grindstone after the power is shut off. Now using the third equation of rotational kinematics as :

\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2=2\alpha \theta

\theta=\dfrac{\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2}{2\alpha }

\theta=\dfrac{-62.83^2}{2\times -6.283}

\theta=314.15\ radian

\theta=49.99\ revolution

or

\theta=50\ revolution

So, the number of revolutions of the grindstone after the power is shut off is 50.

Sallys physical education teacher timed her run and recorded the time and distance in the table below. What is her average speed
Fudgin [204]
Answer: B) 2.5 m/s

Explanation: Find the average of the time and distance, and see how far they go in only 1 second.


1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 15
15 divided by 5 = 3

3 seconds

2 + 5 + 7 + 10 + 12 = 36
36 divided by 5 = 7.2


7.2m per 3 seconds.

7.2 divided by 3 = 2.4

Therefore, the answer is technically 2.4m/s

List the 3 types of collisions that occur when your vehicle hits an object.
koban [17]

These collisions are: "a Vehicle Collision, a Human Collision, Internal Collision." A vehicle collision is a collision that involves two or more vehicles and is when the vehicles collide against each other creating a unbalanced force since how the force comes from opposite directions. A human collision would involve a vehicle and a human which would also be a unbalanced force but the human wouldn't have much affect of it's speed. A internal collision is when something happens inside the vehicle which decreases, or increases the vehicles speed.

Hope this helps!
