Suppose that a wind is blowing in the direction S45°E at a speed of 30 km/h. A pilot is steering a plane in the direction N60°E
Kay [80]

Answer:

The true course: 40.29^\circ north of east

The ground speed of the plane: 96.68 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

  • V_w = velocity of wind = 30\ km/h\ S45^\circ E = (30\cos 45^\circ\ \hat{i}-30\sin 45^\circ\ \hat{j})\ km/h = (21.21\ \hat{i}-21.21\ \hat{j})\ km/h
  • V_p = velocity of plane in still air = 100\ km/h\ N60^\circ E = (100\cos 60^\circ\ \hat{i}+100\sin 60^\circ\ \hat{j})\ km/h = (50\ \hat{i}+86.60\ \hat{j})\ km/h

Assume:

  • V_r = resultant velocity of the plane
  • \theta = direction of the plane with the east

Since the resultant is the vector addition of all the vectors. So, the resultant velocity of the plane will be the vector sum of the wind velocity and the plane velocity in still air.

\therefore V_r = V_p+V_w\\\Rightarrow V_r = (50\ \hat{i}+86.60\ \hat{j})\ km/h+(21.21\ \hat{i}-21.21\ \hat{j})\ km/h\\\Rightarrow V_r = (71.21\ \hat{i}+65.39\ \hat{j})\ km/h

Let us find the direction of this resultant velocity with respect to east direction:

\theta = \tan^{-1}(\dfrac{65.39}{71.21})\\\Rightarrow \theta = 40.29^\circ

This means the the true course of the plane is in the direction of 40.29^\circ north of east.

The ground speed will be the magnitude of the resultant velocity of the plane.

\therefore Magnitude = \sqrt{71.21^2+65.39^2} = 96.68\ km/h

Hence, the ground speed of the plane is 96.68 km/h.

A certain ideal gas has molar heat capacity at constant volume CV. A sample of this gas initially occupies a volume V0 at pressu
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Explanation:

The processes are described on the image attached below. The isobaric process consists of an horizontal line, the adiabatic expansion is described by a polytropic curve:

P_{2} \cdot V_{2}^{\gamma} = P_{3} \cdot V_{3}^{\gamma}

Where:

\gamma = \frac{c_{p}}{c_{v}}

\gamma = 1 + \frac{R}{c_{v}}

Final pressure is:

P_{3} = P_{2}\cdot \left(\frac{V_{2}}{V_{3}}  \right)^{\gamma}

P_{3} = P_{o}\cdot \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{\gamma}

P_{3} = \frac{P_{o}}{2^{\gamma}}
