Answer:

The value  is  \frac{dR}{dt} =  -286.2 \  km/hr

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

   The speed of the airplane from the north is \frac{dN}{dt}  =  -181 \  km /hr

The negative sign is because the direction is towards the south

  The speed of the airplane from the east is  \frac{dE}{dt}  =  -278 \  km/hr

The negative sign is because the direction is towards the west

   The distance of the southbound plane from the airport is  N  =  30 \  km

   The distance of the westbound plane is  E =  15 \  km

Generally the distance between the plane is mathematically represented using Pythagoras theorem  as

    R^2  = N^2 + E^2

Next differentiate implicitly this equation to obtain the rate at which the distance between the planes changes

So

     2R\frac{dR}{dt} =  2N \frac{dN}{dt} +   2E\frac{dE}{dt}

Here

     R = \sqrt{N^2 + E^2}

=>    R = \sqrt{30^2 + 15^2}

=>    R = \sqrt{30^2 + 15^2}

=>    R =33.54 \ m

    2(33.54) * \frac{dR}{dt} =  2( 30)*(-181)  +   2*15*(-278)

=>   67.08 * \frac{dR}{dt} =  -19200

=>   \frac{dR}{dt} =  -286.2 \  km/hr

GREYUIT [131]

Group of answer choices.

A. Energy is absorbed in the reaction.

B. Energy is released in the reaction.

C. There is no transfer of energy in the reaction.

D. Energy is lost in the reaction.

Answer:

B. Energy is released in the reaction.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction can be defined as a chemical process which typically involves the transformation or rearrangement of the atomic, ionic or molecular structure of an element through the breakdown and formation of chemical bonds to produce a new compound or substance.

Basically, there are two (2) main types of chemical reaction and these include;

I. Endothermic reaction: it's a chemical reaction in which heat is absorbed

II. Exothermic reaction: it's a chemical reaction in which heat is liberated into the environment.

In Chemistry, all chemical equation must follow or be in accordance with the Law of Conservation of Mass, which states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed by either a physical transformation or a chemical reaction but transformed from one form to another in an isolated (closed) system.

Generally, energy is released in a chemical reaction when the energy of the products is less than the energy of the reactants and it is referred to as an exothermic reaction.

However, when the energy of the products is greater than the energy of the reactants, energy is absorbed and it is referred to as an endothermic reaction.

point) A circular swimming pool has a diameter of 12 m. The circular side of the pool is 3 m high, and the depth of the water is
Sergio [31]

Answer:

(a) 86.65 J

(b) 149.65 J

Solution:

As per the question:

Diameter of the pool, d = 12 m

⇒ Radius of the pool, r = 6 m

Height of the pool, H = 3 m

Depth of the pool, D = 2.5 m

Density of water, \rho_{w} = 1000\ kg//m^{3}

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8\ m/s^{2}

Now,

(a) Work done in pumping all the water:

Average height of the pool, h = \frac{H + D}{2}

h = \frac{3 + 2.5}{2} = 2.75\ m

Volume of water in the pool, V = \pi r^{2}h = \pi \times 6^{2}\times 2.75 = 311.02\ m^{3}

Mass of water, m_{w} = \frac{\rho_{w}}{V}

m_{w} = \frac{1000}{311.02} = 3.215\ kg

Work done is given by the potential energy of the water as:

W = m_{w}gh = 3.215\times 9.8\times 2.75 = 86.65\ J

(b) Work done to pump all the water through an outlet of 2 m:

Now,

Height, h = 2.75 + 2 = 4.75

Work done,W = m_{w}gh = 3.215\times 9.8\times 4.75 = 149.65\ J

Sphere A has a charge of +2 x 10 to the power of -6 coulomb and is brought into contact with a similar sphere, B which has a cha
Setler [38]
When sphere A and B are brought in contact and separated, charge on each sphere becomes [2x10^-6 + (-4x10^-6)]/ 2 = -1x10^-6 C.

That is, charge is equally separated and is the average of charges on both spheres. The reason behind equal charge on both spheres after separation is, when they are kept in contact, their potential difference becomes same.

A block of mass
Gennadij [26K]

(a) The work done by the applied force is 26.65 J.

(b) The work done by the normal force exerted by the table is 0.

(c) The work done by the force of gravity is 0.

(d) The work done by the net force on the block is 26.65 J.

<h3>Work done by the applied force</h3>

W = Fdcosθ

W = 14 x 2.1 x cos25

W = 26.65 J

<h3>Work done by the normal force</h3>

W = Fₙd

W = mg cosθ x d

W = (2.5 x 9.8) x cos(90) x 2.1

W = 0 J

<h3>Work done force of gravity</h3>

The work done by force of gravity is also zero, since the weight is at 90⁰ to the displacement.

<h3> Work done by the net force on the block</h3>

∑W = 0 + 26.65 J = 26.65 J

Thus, the work done by the applied force is 26.65 J.

The work done by the normal force exerted by the table is 0.

The work done by the force of gravity is 0.

The work done by the net force on the block is 26.65 J.

bija089 [108]
Assuming that the angle is the same for both ropes, then D. is the answer.  You have to consider also if the ropes are close together or far apart and if the force to move the object is in line with the ropes or perpendicular to them.
