Answer:

a

D =  1162.7 \  m

b

\beta =- 65.55^o

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The speed of the airplane is  u  =  92.3 \ m/s

   The  angle is  \theta = 51.1^o

    The altitude of the plane is  d =  532 \  m

Generally the y-component of the airplanes velocity is  

       u_y  =  v *  sin (\theta )

=>     u_y  =   92.3 *  sin ( 51.1 )

=>     u_y  =  71.83  \ m/s

Generally the displacement  traveled by the package in the vertical direction is

       d =  (u_y)t +  \frac{1}{2}(-g)t^2

=>       -532  = 71.83 t +  \frac{1}{2}(-9.8)t^2

Here the negative sign for the distance show that the direction is along the negative y-axis

 =>   4.9t^2 - 71.83t - 532 = 0

Solving this using quadratic formula we obtain that

    t =  20.06 \  s

Generally the x-component of the velocity is  

     u_x  =  u  *  cos (\theta)

=>    u_x  =   92.3  *  cos (51.1)

=>   u_x  =   57.96 \ m/s

Generally the distance travel in the horizontal  direction is    

     D =  u_x  *  t

=>   D =  57.96  *   20.06

=>    D =  1162.7 \  m

Generally the angle of the velocity vector relative to the ground is mathematically represented as

       \beta  =  tan ^{-1}[\frac{v_y}{v_x } ]

Here v_y is the final  velocity of the package along the vertical  axis and this is mathematically represented as  

     v_y  =  u_y  -   gt

=>  v_y  =  71.83  -    9.8 *  20.06

=>  v_y  =  -130.05 \  m/s  

and  v_x is the final  velocity of the package which is equivalent to the initial velocity u_x

So

       \beta  =  tan ^{-1}[-130.05}{57.96 } ]

       \beta =- 65.55^o

The negative direction show that it is moving towards the south east direction

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

  average speed

Explanation:

The directions were different, so the velocities could not be the same.

However, the magnitude of the velocity (speed) was 56/2 = 28 m/s for the first car, and 84/3 = 28 m/s for the second car. These<em> average speeds are the same</em>.

The height of the upper falls at Yellowstone Falls is 33 m. When the water reaches the bottom of the falls, its speed is 26 m/s.
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Speed of water at the top of fall = 5.40 m/s

Explanation:

We have equation of motion

v^2=u^2+2as

Here final velocity, v = 26 m/s

a = acceleration due to gravity

a=9.8m/s^2 \\

displacement, s = 33 m

Substituting

26^2=u^2+2\times 9.8 \times 33\\\\u^2=29.2\\\\u=5.40m/s \\

Speed of water at the top of fall = 5.40 m/s
