A glider moving with a speed of 200 kilometers/hour experiences a cross wind of 30 kilometers/hour. What is the resultant speed

of the glider relative to the ground?

You didn't say so, but we must assume that the "200 km/hr" is
the glider's air-speed, that is, speed relative to the air. 

If the air itself is moving at 30 km/hr relative to the ground and
across the glider's direction, then the glider's speed relative to
the ground is

                 √(200² + 30²)

             =  √(40,000 + 900)

             =  √(40,900)  =  202.24... km/hr   (rounded)

8. A monorail train traveling at 80 km/h must be stopped at 40 m. a) What average acceleration
RUDIKE [14]

Explanation:

initial velocity= 80km/hr = 22.22 m/s

distance= 40m

Final velocity= 0m/s ( as it needs to be stopped)

<u>Using </u><u>third </u><u>equation </u><u>of </u><u>motion</u><u>,</u>

=> 2as = v² - u²

=> 2a * 40m = 0² - (22.22 m/s)²

=> a = - 493.72/80 m/s²

=> a = - 6.17m/s²

<u>Using </u><u>first </u><u>equation </u><u>of </u><u>motion</u><u>,</u>

=> a = v - u /t

=> -6.17 = 0-22.22/t

=> t = -22.22/-6.17 s

=> t ≈ 3.7 s = stopping time

Suppose a ray of light traveling in a material with an index of refraction n a reaches an interface with a material having an in
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: C and D

Explanation: One of the first rule for total internal reflection to occur is that the ray must move from a dense to a less dense medium, hence refractive index of medium a must be greater than that of b.

When a ray moves from a dense to a less dense medium, the refracted ray moves away from the normal thus increasing the size of the angle of refraction (total internal refraction occurs when the angle of refraction is 90° and the angle of incidence at this point is known as the critical angle), hence the angle of incidence must be greater than the critical angle.

These points verifies option C and D

An optical disk drive in your computer can spin a disk up to 10,000 rpm (about 1045 rad/s1045 rad/s ). If a particular disk is s
kumpel [21]

To solve this problem we must keep in mind the concepts related to angular kinematic equations. For which the angular velocity is defined as

\omega_f =\omega_i-\alpha t

Where

\omega_f = Final angular velocity

\omega_i = Initial angular velocity

\alpha =Angular acceleration

t= time

In this case we do not have a final angular velocity, then

\omega_i = \alpha t

Re-arrange for \alpha

\alpha= \frac{\omega_i}{t}

\alpha = \frac{910}{0.167}

\alpha = 5449.1 rad\s^2

Therefore the mangitude of the angular aceleration is 5449.1rad/s²
