A jetliner is moving at a speed of 245m/s. The vertical component of the plane's velocity is 40.6 m/s. Determine the magnitude o
Harman [31]

Answer:

Horizontal component of velocity = 241.61 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity of a jetliner is 245 m/s

The vertical component of the plane's velocity is 40.6 m/s, v_y=40.6\ m/s

We need to find the magnitude of the horizontal component of the plane velocity.

The resultant velocity is given by :

v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}

Where, v_x is the horizontal component of the plane velocity

v^2=v_x^2+v_y^2\\\\v_x^2=v^2-v_y^2\\\\v_x^2=(245)^2-(40.6)^2\\\\v_x=\sqrt{58376.64}\\\\v_x=241.61\ m/s

So, the magnitude of the horizontal component of the plane velocity is 241.61 m/s.

Two resistors have resistances R(smaller) and R(larger), where R(smaller) < R(larger). When the resistors are connected in se
just olya [345]

Answer:

1.61ohms and 4.39ohms

Explanation:

According to ohm's law which States that the current (I) passing through a metallic conductor at constant temperature is directly proportional to the potential difference (V) across its ends. Mathematically, E = IRt where;

E is the electromotive force

I is the current

Rt is the effective resistance

Let the resistances be R and r

When the resistors are connected in series to a 12.0-V battery and the current from the battery is 2.00 A, the equation becomes;

12 = 2(R+r)

Rt = R+r (connection in series)

6 = R+r ...(1)

If the resistors are connected in parallel to the battery and the total current from the battery is 10.2 A, the equation will become;

12 = 10.2(1/R+1/r)

Since 1/Rt = 1/R+1/r (parallel connection)

Rt = R×r/R+r

12 = 10.2(Rr/R+r)

12(R+r) = 10.2Rr ... (2)

Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously to get the resistances. From (1), R = 6-r...(3)

Substituting equation 3 into 2 we have;

12{(6-r)+r} = 10.2(6-r)r

12(6-r+r) = 10.2(6r-r²)

72 = 10.2(6r-r²)

36 = 5.1(6r-r²)

36 = 30.6r-5.1r²

5.1r²-30.6r +36 =

r = 30.6±√30.6²-4(5.1)(36)/2(5.1)

r = 30.6±√936.36-734.4/10.2

r = 30.6±√201.96/10.2

r = 30.6±14.2/10.2

r = 44.8/10.2 and r = 16.4/10.2

r = 4.39 and 1.61ohms

Since R+r = 6

R+1.61 = 6

R = 6-1.61

R = 4.39ohms

Therefore the resistances are 1.61ohms and 4.39ohms

Why do waves with frequencies higher than visible light hurt while those with lower frequencies do not affect us?
STALIN [3.7K]
Lower frequency waves have less strength to penetrate. How bad a wave is all depends on how well it penetrates our bodies. Visible light doesn't penetrate ur skin, but UV rays (higher than visible) can go through our skin, making it <span>bad" for us. High frequency waves have more energy and move faster</span>

What are the chances that radio transmissions from Earth or messages sent on distant space probes will ever be received by livin
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

<u>Very low</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

It is fair to say to a reasonable extent that there are very low chances that radio transmissions from Earth or messages sent on distant space probes will ever be received by living beings .

Bear in mind that for years some scientists have believed without any substantial evidence that there are other living beings in distant space.

When heat is converted into another form of energy, the total amount of energy is constant. Which law best illustrates this stat
deff fn [24]
The law of conservation of energy states that in a closed or isolated system, the amount of energy remains constant because energy can neither be created or destroyed. It can only be transferred from one form into another. This applies to all forms of energy.
