Answer:

(a)Velocity of wind = 35 j

(b)Velocity of jet relative to air = 425 i

(c)True velocity of jet = 425 i + 35 j

(d)True speed of jet = $\sqrt{425^{2}+35^{2}}$ = 426.88 mi/h

Direction of jet is, ∅ = $tan^{-1} \frac{40}{425}$ = 5.38°

Explanation:

We can represent east direction by i and north direction by j.

The jet has a relative speed of 425 mi/h relative to the air.

The wind is blowing due north with a speed of 35 mi/h = 35 j

425 mi/h is the relative speed with respect to wind that is

Velocity of jet wrt wind= $V_{jw}$ = $V_{j}-V_{w}$

425 i = $V_{j}$ - 35 j

$V_{j}$ = 425 i + 35 j

(a)Velocity of wind = 35 j

(b)Velocity of jet relative to air = 425 i

(c)True velocity of jet = 425 i + 35 j

(d)True speed of jet = $\sqrt{425^{2}+35^{2}}$ = 426.88 mi/h

Direction of jet is,

∅ = $tan^{-1} \frac{40}{425}$ = 5.38°

An object has a position given by the radius vector r = [2.0 m + (3.00 m/s)t](i)+ [3.0 m - (2.00 m/s^2)t^2](j). Here (i) and (j)

Answer:

The speed of the object is ( $3i - 4.00tj$ )m/s

The magnitude of the acceleration is 4.00m/s²

Explanation:

Given - position vector;

r = (2.0 + 3.00t)i + (3.0 - 2.00t²)j -------------------(i)

To get the speed vector ( $v$ ), take the first derivative of equation (i) with respect to time t as follows;

$v$ = $\frac{dr}{dt}$

$v$ = $\frac{d[(2.0 + 3.00t)i + (3.0 - 2.00t^2)j] }{dt}$

$v$ = $3i - 4.00tj$ ------------------------(ii)

To get the acceleration vector ( $a$ ), take the first derivative of the speed vector in equation(ii) as follows;

$a = \frac{dv}{dt}$

$a = \frac{d(3i - 4.00tj)}{dt}$

$a = -4.00$ j

The magnitude of the acceleration |a| is therefore given by

|a| = |-4.00|

|a| = 4.00 m/s²

In conclusion;

the speed of the object is ( $3i - 4.00tj$ )m/s

the magnitude of the acceleration is 4.00m/s²

Which effect is created when two sound waves that are close in pitch

Temka [501]

Answer:

C. Beats

Explanation:

When waves are interfering with each other, the sound is louder in some places and softer in others. As a result, we hear pulses or beats in the sound.
