A bird flew 16 km west in 5 hours , then flew 20 km east in 6 hours . What was the birds velocity?

LenaWriter [7]

During that period of time, the bird's displacement was 4 km east. So its velocity was (4km east)/(11hrs). That's 0.36 km/hour east. (rounded)

What is the index of refraction in quartz if light travels at 2.0567 x 108m/s when in quartz?

Gnesinka [82]

Index of refraction of a substance =

(speed of light in vacuum) / (speed of light in the substance)

Index in quartz = (2.9979 x 10⁸ m/s) / (2.0567 x 10⁸ m/s)

Index = 1.4576 (no units)

A jet airliner moving initially at 693 mph (with respect to the ground) to the east moves into a region where the wind is blowin

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The new speed of the aircraft with respect to the ground is 1414.3 mph.

Explanation:

Given that,

Angle = 37°

Velocity of jet airliner = 693 mph

Velocity of wind = 798 mph

We know that,

The new velocity of the aircraft with respect to the ground

$v=v_{a}+v_{w}$

We need to calculate the new speed of the aircraft with respect to the ground

Using formula for velocity

$v=\sqrt{(v_{a})^2+(v_{w})^2+2v_{a}v_{w}\cos\theta}$

Put the value into the formula

$v=\sqrt{(693)^2+(798)^2+2\times693\times798\cos37}$

$v=1414.3\ mph$

Hence, The new speed of the aircraft with respect to the ground is 1414.3 mph.
