A jet fighter flies from the airbase A 300 km East to the point M. Then 350 km at 30° West of North.
It means : at 60° North of West. So the distance from the final point to the line AM is :
350 · cos 60° = 350 · 0.866 = 303.1 km
Let`s assume that there is a line N on AM.
AN = 125 km and NM = 175 km.
And finally jet fighter flies 150 km North to arrive at airbase B.
NB = 303.1 + 150 = 453.1 km
Then we can use the Pythagorean theorem.
d ( AB ) = √(453.1² + 125²) = √(205,299.61 + 15,625) = 470 km
Also foe a direction: cos α = 125 / 470 = 0.266
α = cos^(-1) 0.266 = 74.6°
90° - 74.6° = 15.4°
Answer: The distance between the airbase A and B is 470 km.
Direction is : 15.4° East from the North.

An object is place 30.5 cm from a convex lens that has a focal length of 8.0cm.where is the image ?
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

Image is between F and 2F. And the exact location is:

q = 10.84 cm

Explanation:

The convex lens form different kinds of images with different sizes and locations, for the different positions of an object. In this case, the object is placed 30.5 cm from the convex lens with a focal length of 8 cm. This means that it is the case of the object placed beyond 2F. In this case, the image formed has the following characteristics:

1. Image is real.

2. Image is inverted

3. Image is diminished

<u>4. Image is located between F and 2F</u>

For exact location we use the thin lens formula:

\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q}

where,

f = focal length = 8 cm

p = object distance = 30.5 cm

q = image distance = ?

Therefore,

\frac{1}{8\ cm} = \frac{1}{30.5\ cm} + \frac{1}{q}  \\\frac{1}{8\ cm} - \frac{1}{30.5\ cm} = \frac{1}{q}

<u>q = 10.84 cm</u>

Which explains why a gas does not have a fixed shape
ElenaW [278]
This sounds like a multiple choice question, but gas does not have a fixed shape because its quick particles fill any type of container you put it in. the particles move freely. hopefully that sounds right :)

A 0.2 kg baseball moving with a velocity of 20 m/s is struck by a bat. The baseball reverses its direction and moves with a velo
krek1111 [17]

Average force is 666.67 N

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given that :

m = Mass of the baseball = 0.2 kg

u = Initial velocity = 20 m/s  

v = Final velocity = 40 m/s

t = Time taken for change in velocity = 0.006 s

We know:

Force exerted = mass × acceleration = m ×a

Acceleration can be found by means of dividing the change in velocity measured in m/s by the time taken in seconds.

a = $\frac{v-u}{t} = $a = \frac{40-20}{0.006} = 3,333.3 m/s²

Now we have to find the force using the formula, F = mass × acceleration as,

F = 0.2 kg ×3333.3 ms⁻² = 666.67 N

1.5 kg of air within a piston-cylinder assembly executes a Carnot power cycle with maximum and minimum temperatures of 800 K and
liraira [26]

Answer:

Explanation:

Carton cycle consists of four thermodynamic processes . The first is isothermal expansion at higher temperature , then adiabatic expansion which lowers the temperature of gas . The third process is isothermal compression at lower temperature and the last process is adiabatic compression which increases the temperature of the gas to its original temperature .

So the given process of isothermal compression must have been done at the temperature of 300K  , keeping the temperature constant .

Work done on gas at isothermal compression is equal to heat transfer .

work done on gas = 80 x 10³ J

work done on gas = n RT ln v₁ / v₂

n is number of moles v₁ and v₂ are initial and final volume

molecular weight of gas = 28.97 g

1.5 kg = 1500 / 28.97 moles

= 51.77 moles

work done on gas = n RT ln v₁ / v₂

Putting the values in the equation above

80 x 10³ = 51.78 x 8.31 x 300 x ln v₁ / .2

ln v₁ / .2 = .62

v₁ / .2 = 1.8589

v₁ = 0.37 m³
