Answer:

C. 590 mph

\vert v_{cj}\vert=589.49\ mph

Explanation:

Given:

  • velocity of jet, v_j=500\ mph
  • direction of velocity of jet, east relative to the ground
  • velocity of Cessna, v_c=150\ mph
  • direction of velocity of Cessna, 60° north of west

Taking the x-axis alignment towards east and hence we have the velocity vector of the jet as reference.

Refer the attached schematic.

So,

\vec v_j=500\ \hat i\ mph

&

\vec v_c=150\times (\cos120\ \hat i+\sin120\ \hat j)

\vec v_c=-75\ \hat i+75\sqrt{3}\ \hat j\ mph

Now the vector of relative velocity of Cessna with respect to jet:

\vec v_{cj}=\vec v_j-\vec v_c

\vec v_{cj}=500\ \hat i-(-75\ \hat i+75\sqrt{3}\ \hat j )

\vec v_{cj}=575\ \hat i-75\sqrt{3}\ \hat j\ mph

Now the magnitude of this velocity:

\vert v_{cj}\vert=\sqrt{(575)^2+(75\sqrt{3} )^2}

\vert v_{cj}\vert=589.49\ mph is the relative velocity of Cessna with respect to the jet.

Motion equation of object is
Ganezh [65]

Take the derivative to find the velocity of the object:

v=\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}=-12+6t

The object stops when v=0:

-12+6t=0\implies6t=12\implies t=2

so the answer is E.

Which pair of triangles can be proven congruent by the hl theorem?
hoa [83]

The pairs of triangles that can be proven congruent by the hl theorem is the right angled triangle.

<h3>What is mearnt be the HL theorm?</h3>

The HL theorem is also known as the Hypothenus Leg theorem, it states that "the hypotenuse and leg of one right triangle are congruent to the hypotenuse and leg of another right triangle, then the two triangles are congruent."

If a diffraction grating has 3700 lines per cm, what is the spacing d between lines
Sonja [21]
So first we find the gap between the slits by the formula d=1/N 

<span>N is number of lines per metre so 3700 line/cm = 370000 lines/m </span>
<span>So d=2.7*10^-6 </span>

<span>Now we use the formula dsin(angle)=n(wavelength) </span>

<span>d is the same </span>
<span>n is the order of the diffraction pattern </span>

<span>so wavelenth=dsin(angle)/n </span>
<span>=[(2.7*10^-6)*sin30]/3 </span>
<span>=4.5*10^-7 m</span>
