When a plane flies with the​ wind, it can travel 1575 miles in 3.5 hours. when the plane flies in the opposite​ direction, again

st the​ wind, it takes 4.5 hours to fly the same distance. find the average velocity of the plane in still air and the average velocity of the wind?

When plane is flying along the wind then we can say

V_{plane} + v_{wind} = \frac{distance}{time}

V_{plane} + v_{wind} = \frac{1575}{3.5}

V_{plane} + v_{wind} = 450 mph

Now when its going against the wind the speed is given by

V_{plane} - v_{wind} = \frac{distance}{time}

V_{plane} - v_{wind} = \frac{1575}{4.5}

V_{plane} - v_{wind} = 350 mph

Now by the above two equations we will have

V_{plane} = 400 mph

v_{wind} = 50 mph

Answer:

at t=46/22, x=24 699/1210 ≈ 24.56m

Explanation:

The general equation for location is:

x(t) = x₀ + v₀·t + 1/2 a·t²

Where:

x(t) is the location at time t. Let's say this is the height above the base of the cliff.

x₀ is the starting position. At the base of the cliff we'll take x₀=0 and at the top x₀=46.0

v₀ is the initial velocity. For the ball it is 0, for the stone it is 22.0.

a is the standard gravity. In this example it is pointed downwards at -9.8 m/s².

Now that we have this formula, we have to write it two times, once for the ball and once for the stone, and then figure out for which t they are equal, which is the point of collision.

Ball: x(t) = 46.0 + 0 - 1/2*9.8 t²

Stone: x(t) = 0 + 22·t - 1/2*9.8 t²

Since both objects are subject to the same gravity, the 1/2 a·t² term cancels out on both side, and what we're left with is actually quite a simple equation:

46 = 22·t

so t = 46/22 ≈ 2.09

Put this t back into either original (i.e., with the quadratic term) equation and get:

x(46/22) = 46 - 1/2 * 9.806 * (46/22)² ≈ 24.56 m
