As per the question, the velocity of the airplane [v] = 660 miles per hour.

The total time taken by airplane [t] = 3.5 hours.

We are asked to determine the total distance travelled by the airplane during that period.

The distance covered [ S] by a body is the product of velocity with the time.

Mathematically distance covered = velocity × total time

S = v × t

= 660 miles/hour ×3.5 hours

= 2310 miles.

Hence, the total distance travelled by the airplane in 3.5 hour is 2310 miles.

Answer:

Approximately $7.8\; \rm J$ .

Explanation:

The change in the gravitational potential energy of the pendulum is directly related to the change in its height.

Refer to the sketch attached. The pendulum is initially at $\rm P_2$ . Its highest point is at $P_1$ . The length of segment $\rm BP_2$ gives the change in its height.

The lengths of $\rm AP_1$ and $\rm AP_2$ are simply the length of the string, $1.5\; \rm m$ . To find the length of $\rm BP_2$ , start by calculating the length of $\rm AB$ .

$\rm AB$ forms a leg in the right triangle $\rm \triangle AP_1B$ . Besides, it is adjacent to the $30^\circ$ angle $\rm P_1\hat{A}B$ . Its length would be:

$\rm AB = 1.5 \times \cos(30^\circ) \approx 1.30\; \rm m$ .

The length of $\rm BP_2$ would thus be

$\rm BP_2 = AP_2 - AB = 1.5 - 1.30 \approx 0.20\; \rm m$ .

The change in gravitational potential energy can be found with the equation

$\Delta \mathrm{GPE} = m \cdot g \cdot \Delta h$ . In this equation,

$m$ is the mass of the object,
$g \approx 9.81\; \rm N \cdot kg^{-1}$ near the surface of the earth, and
$\Delta h$ is the change in the object's height.

In this case, $m = 4\; \rm kg$ and $\Delta h \approx 0.20\; \rm m$ . Therefore:

$\Delta \mathrm{GPE} = 4 \times 9.81 \times 0.20 \approx 7.8\; \rm J$ .

(1) find the density of a substance if the mass of the substance is 150kg and dimension 20mby10mby5m

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

0.15kg/m³

Explanation:

Density = mass/ volume

Given that

Mass = 150kg

Note that volume = length x breadth x height

Volume = 20 x 10 x 5

Volume = 1000m³

Density = mass ➗ volume

Density = 150kg ➗ 1000m³

Density = 0.15kg/m³

Korolek [52]

Answer:

Incomplete Dominance: In this case, the 3rd different phenotype is created by the heterozygous(CwCr) (for example, pink)

Co-Dominance: the heterozygous is observed to show both the homozygous conditions (for example the blood type iAiB shows both A and B carbohydrates)

Multiple alleles: This is when a gene has over 2 alleles (i.e. blood has ia ib i)

Polygenic inheritance: This is when over two different gene leads to the expression of a trait.

Pleiotropy: This is the when a gene shows several effects on an organism.

Epistasis: This is when more than one gene have strong control on the expression of a trait (for example, E/e allele creates pigments)

Sex-linkage: This refers to the genes found in sex chromosomes

Gene Linkage: These are the genes situated in a similar chromosome.
