Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

given,

velocity of airplane = 80 m/s

angle with the horizontal = 15°

speed of the ground= ?

when the plane is taking off the horizontal component of the velocity is v cosθ

so,      

        ground speed of the airplane is = v\times cos\theta

                                                              = 80 \times cos 15^0

                                                           v  =  77.27 m/s

horizontal velocity of the air plane comes out to be 77.27 m/s ≅ 77 m/s

so, the correct option is Option C

Based on the free-body diagram, the net force acting<br> on this firework is
Strike441 [17]

0N. The net force acting on this firework is 0.

The key to solve this problem is using the net force formula based on the diagram shown in the image. Fnet = F1 + F2.....Fn.

Based on the free-body diagram, we have:

The force of gases is Fgases = 9,452N

The force of the rocket Frocket = -9452

Then, the net force acting is:

Fnet = Fgases + Frocket

Fnet = 9,452N - 9,452N = 0N

How much is the velocity of a body when it travels 600m in 5 minutes?​
maks197457 [2]

answer

so unit of velocity is m/s

displacement=600m

5minutes should be converted to seconds

5×60=300 seconds

so,

velocity= displacement÷time

= 600m ÷300s

=2m/s or 2ms^-1

Explain the difference between the 7 parts of the electromagnetic spectrum.
inn [45]

Answer:

The difference between the two is, well for one

Spectrum: The entire range that the "waves" could be such, as visible light, x-ray's and so on.

Waves: These are different because they aren't telling you or showing the entire spectrum just which they length that they are.

It may confuse you but it makes sense to me (Sorry)

What is a transverse wave? How do the particles in the medium move in relation to the energy of the wave? Does this wave require
Pani-rosa [81]
A transverse wave is a wave where the particles in the medium move perpendicular (at right angles) to the direction of the source or its propagation (think of a snake slithering through grass) an example of a transverse wave could be a light wave. Light waves for instance don’t need a medium in order to propagate but transverse waves in general do need a medium.
