If an airplane is flying at 300 km/h to the east and is facing a headwind of 18.0 km/h, what is the airplane's final velocity?

1 answer:

8 0

If an airplane is flying at 300 km/h to the east and is facing a headwind of 18.0 km/h, the final velocity can be calculated using simple vector addition. In this case, the planes velocity is positive (+330 km/h) and head wind has a negative component (-18.0 km/h). Vector addition yields +330 km / h + (-18.0 km /h) = 312 km / h.

Naily [24]

Answer:

except ii and iii

Explanation:

The angle of reflection is the angle to the normal the white rays strikes the water surface and it is the incidence angle. Since the white light is moving from less dense medium to a denser medium or a medium with a higher refractive index; the angle of refraction will be less than 30 degrees. Total internal reflection cannot occur because the white light is traveling from a less dense medium to a denser medium.
