<span> d = r*t is the basic distance equation
 d = 6000 km
 t with the tail wind = 6 hr
 r with the tail wind = speed of the plane + wind speed = s + w
 t with the head wind = 7.5 hr
 r with the head wind = speed of the plane - wind speed = s-w
 (s+w)*6 = 6000
 (s-w)*7.5 = 6000
 s + w = 1000
 s - w = 800
</span><span> 2s = 1800
 s = 900 km/h
 s + w = 1000
 w = 100
 Check the anwer by calculating the return trip.
 (900-100) * 7.5 = 800 * 7.5
 800 * 7.5 = 6000 km
 Answer: The rate of the jet in still air is 900 km/h. The rate of the wind is 100 km/hr.</span>

If a transformer has 50 turns in the primary winding and 10 turns on the secondary winding, what is the reflected resistance in
Elza [17]

Answer:

The reflected resistance in the primary winding is 6250 Ω

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns in the primary winding, N_P = 50 turns

number of turns in the secondary winding, N_S = 10 turns

the secondary load resistance, R_S = 250 Ω

Determine the turns ratio;

K = \frac{N_P}{N_S} \\\\K = \frac{50}{10} \\\\K = 5

Now, determine the reflected resistance in the primary winding;

\frac{R_P}{R_S} = K^2\\\\R_P = R_SK^2\\\\R_P = 250(5)^2\\\\R_P = 6250 \ Ohms

Therefore, the reflected resistance in the primary winding is 6250 Ω

A 30.0 kg dolphin decelerates from 12.0 to 7.00 m/s in 2.60 s to join another dolphin in play. What average force (in N) was exe
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Force is 57.69 N to the opposite direction of motion of dolphin.

Explanation:

We have force is the product of mass and acceleration.

That is    

                 Force = Mass x Acceleration

                         F = ma

Mass of dolphin, m = 30 kg

We have equation of motion, v = u + at

Final velocity, v = 7 m/s

Initial velocity, u = 12 m/s

Time, t = 2.60 s

Substituting

                   7 = 12 + a x 2.6

                    a = -1.92 m/s²

Force,   F = 30 x -1.92 = -57.69 N

So the force is 57.69 N to the opposite direction of motion of dolphin.

On which planet can you jump about the same height as Earth? Explain your answer.
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

Venus and Earth

Explanation:

The force of gravity depends on your mass AND the mass of the planet you stand on. Earth and Venus are about the same size, so they have about the same mass. If you go to Venus, your mass hasn't changed, and the planet mass is almost the same as earth- so the force of gravity on you (AKA your weight) will be the same.
