The west constituent of their sequence needs to cancel out 58 mph crosswind. Subsequently a northwest direction is a 45-degree angle up to even with the destination. That is the third point out of the triangle and the right angle is at the destination. The top side is the west constituent of their flight the vertical side is their resultant travel and the hypotenuse is their definite distance flown. Since the 58 mph crosswind was negated by flying northwest, the distance from the beginning to the destination must be the same distance as the west component of their travel. The hypotenuse is square root of twice the side since it has 2 identical sides.

c = sqrt (58^2 + 58^2) = sqrt (6728) = 82.02

Alternative solution:

c = sqrt (2) * 58 = 1.414 * 58 = 82.02

Therefore, they have to fly 82.02 mph

A compact car has a maximum acceleration of 2.0 m/s2 when it carries only the driver and has a total mass of 1100 kg . you may w

nadya68 [22]

According to Newton`s law. Force exerted by car,

$F = m a = 1100 kg \times 2 m/s^2 = 2200 \ N$

After adding an additional 400 kg of mass, the force will be same therefore the acceleration

$F = 2200 \ N = (1100 \ kg + 400 \ kg) a \\\\ a = \frac{2200 \ N}{1500 \ kg} = 1.47 \ m/s^2$

Thus, the acceleration after adding the masses is 1.47 \ m/s^2.

Consider the reaction, X + 2Y → XY2 If X and Y are completely consumed in the reaction and we start with 10.0 mol of Y, then how

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

In the reaction you would have 15.0 mols of Y and X.

Explanation:

The stoichiometric coefficents for X and Y are 1 and 2 respectively, if you start the reaction with 10.0 moles of Y you would need 5.0 moles of X in order to achieve a complete reaction so you will have 15.0 total moles in the reaction, assuming no mass loss and no nuclear reactions.

in a tall building, a certain window is 500 meters above the ground.A tennis ball is catapulted horizontally out of the window w

expeople1 [14]

The tennis ball lands at a point 40.4 m from the base of the building.

The tennis ball is projected with a horizontal velocity <em>u</em> from a window, which is at a height <em>y</em> from the ground. The ball lands at a distance <em>x</em> from the base of the building. Let the ball take a time <em>t</em> to reach the ground. In the time <em>t</em> ,the ball falls a vertical distance <em>y</em> and also travel a horizontal distance <em>x</em>.

The initial vertical velocity of the ball is zero, since the ball is projected in the horizontal direction. The ball falls down under the action of gravitational force.

Thus, use the equation of motion,

$y=\frac{1}{2} gt^2$

rewrite the expression for <em>t</em> and calculate the value of <em>t</em> using 9.81 m/s²for <em>g</em> and 500 m for <em>y</em>.

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2y}{g} } \\ =\sqrt\frac{(2)(500m)}{9.81m/s^2} \\ =10.096 s$

The horizontal distance <em>x</em> is traveled using the constant velocity <em>u </em>since no force acts on the ball in the horizontal direction.

Therefore,

$x=ut$

Substitute 4 m/s for <em>u</em> and 10.096 s for <em>t</em>

$x=ut\\ =(4m/s)(10.096s)\\ =40.384m=40.4 m$

Thus, the ball lands at a point 40.4 m from the base of the building.
