Answer:
26.5 minutes
Explanation:
When the airplane is flying due West from Denver to Reno, the due-East wind with speed of 80km/h would reduce the ground speed by 80 km/h.
Its Denver to Reno ground speed is 900 - 80 = 720 km/h
The time it takes to cover 1200km at this speed is 1200 / 720 = 1.67 hours
On the other hand, when it returns from Reno to Denver in the due-East direction, the due-East wind with speed of 80km/h would add to the ground speed by 80 km/h
Its Reno to Denver ground speed is 900 + 80 = 980 km/h
The time it takes to cover 1200 km at this speed is 1200 / 980 = 1.22 hours
The difference it flight time would be 1.67 - 1.22 = 0.44 hours or 26.5 minutes
Answer:
Time, size, distance, speed, direction, weight, volume, temperature, pressure, force, sound, light, energy—these are among the physical properties for which humans have developed accurate measures, without which we could not live our normal daily lives. Measurement permeates every aspect of human life.
Speed = distance / time = 21 / 0.25 = 84 Km/hr
Answer:
refraction
Explanation:
When a ray of light passes from one medium to another medium, it deviates from its path, this phenomenon is called refraction.
When the ray passes from rarer medium to denser medium it bends towards the normal and if the ray passes from denser medium to rarer medium, it bends away from the normal.
Here, the ray passes from air to glass, so refraction takes place.
