While riding in a hot air balloon, which is steadily at a speed of 1.01 m/s, and your phone accidentally falls.

(a) The speed of your phone after 4 s is:

V= u + at

V= 1.01 + (9.8)(4)

V= 40.21 m/s

(b) The balloon is ____ far:

V = u + at

V= 1.01 + (9.8)(1)

V=10.81 –distance at 1 one second

V= u + at

V= 1.01 + (9.8)(2)

V= 20.61-distance at 2 seconds

V= u+ at

V= 30.41- distance at 3 seconds

V= 40.21- distance at 4 seconds

D= 102.04 m

(c) If the balloon is rising steadily at 1.01 m/s:

V= -1.1 m/s

A small plane flies at a speed of 102 km/h in still air. Suppose the wind blows out from the west (with the air moving east) at

Semmy [17]

Answer:

2.68 hours

Explanation:

A.) Suppose the wind blows out from the west (with the air moving east). The pilot should then head her plane to northwest direction to move directly north.

B.) Given that plane flies at a speed of 102 km/h in still air. And the wind blows out from the west (with the air moving east) at a speed of 46 km/h.

The plan resultant speed can be calculated by using pythagorean theorem.

Resultant Speed = Sqrt( 102^2 + 46^2 )

Resultant Speed = Sqrt( 12520)

Resultant speed = 111.89 km/h

From the definition of speed,

Speed = distance/time

Where distance = 300 km

Substitute the resultant speed and the distance into the formula.

111.89 = 300/time

Time = 300/111.89

Time = 2.68 hours

Therefore, it take her 2.68 hours to reach a point 300 km directly north of her srarting point

If the distance between slits on a diffraction grating is 0.50 mm and one of the angles of diffraction is 0.25°, how large is th

Trava [24]

Answer:

- path differnce = 2.18*10^-6

- 1538 lines

Explanation:

- The path difference for the waves that produce the pattern of diffraction, is given by the following formula:

$path\ difference\ = dsin\theta$ (1)

d: separation between slits = 0.50mm = 0.50*10^-3 m

θ: angle of a diffraction = 0.25°

Then, the path difference is:

$path\ difference\ =(0.50*10^{-3}m)sin(0.25\°)=2.18*10^{-6}m$

- The maximum number of bright lines are calculated by using the following formula:

$m\lambda = dsin\theta$ (2)

m: order of the bright

λ: wavelength = 650nm

The maximum bright is calculated for an angle of 90°:

$m=\frac{(0.50*10^{-3}m)sin90\°}{650*10^{-9}m} \approx 769$

The maxium number of bright lines are twice the previous result, that is, 1538 lines

a vector has an x-component of 19.5m and a y-component of 28.4m. Find the magnitude and direction of the vector

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

magnitude=34.45 m

direction= $55.52\°$

Explanation:

Assuming the initial point P1 of this vector is at the origin:

P1=(X1,Y1)=(0,0)

And knowing the other point is P2=(X2,Y2)=(19.5,28.4)

We can find the magnitude and direction of this vector, taking into account a vector has a initial and a final point, with an x-component and a y-component.

For the magnitude we will use the formula to calculate the distance $d$ between two points:
