Answer:

B. The wind is blowing at 20 m/s. The airplane is flying with the wind at 130 m/s.

Explanation:

From Physics we get that resultant velocity of an airplane is the sum of an absolute velocity and a relative velocity, that is:

\vec v_{A} = \vec v_{W}+\vec v_{A/W} (Eq. 1)

Where:

\vec v_{W} - Wind velocity, measured in meters per second.

\vec v_{A/W} - Airplance velocity relative to wind, measured in meters per second.

\vec v_{A} - Airplane velocity, measured in meters per second.

If we assume that \vec v_{W} = 20\,\hat{i}\,\,\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right] (The airplane flies with the wind), \vec v_{A/W} = 130\,\hat{i}\,\,\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right], then the resultant velocity of the airplane is:

\vec v_{A} = 20\,\hat{i}+130\,\hat{i}\,\,\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right]

\vec v_{A} = 150\,\hat{i}\,\,\,\left[\frac{m}{s} \right]

Therefore, correct answer is B.

A 3.0N force to the right acts on a 0.5kg object at rest during a time interval of 4.0 seconds .What is the velocity of the obje
monitta

Answer:

24 m/s

Explanation:

Applying Newton's second law of motion,

F = ma................ Equation 1

Where F = force acting on the object, m = mass of the object a = acceleration of the object.

First we calculate for a.

make a the subject of the formula in equation 1 above

a = F/m............... Equation 2

Given: F = 3 N, m = 0.5 kg.

Substitute into equation 2

a = 3/0.5

a = 6 m/s²

Secondly we calculate the velocity by using,

v = u+at................... Equation 3

Where v = Final velocity of the object, u = initial velocity of the object, t = time interval

Given: u = 0 m/s (at rest), a = 6 m/s², t = 4 s

Substitute into equation 3

v = 0+6(4)

v = 24 m/s

If you connected 10 of these 12V (10 W) lamps in parallel, to the 12V source, how much current would the source have to supply
Flauer [41]

Answer:

T=8.33A

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Number of battery n=10

Voltage sourceE=12V

Lamp PowerP=10W

Generally the equation for Resistance is mathematically given by

 R=\frac{V^2}{P}

 R=\frac{12^2}{10}

 R=14.4ohms

Therefore

 R_{eq}=\frac{14.4}{10}

 R_{eq}=1.44

Generally the equation for Current is mathematically given by

 T=\ffrac{V}{Req}

 T=\frac{12}{1.44}

 T=8.33A
