A plane flies 470 km east from city A to city B in 45.0 min and then 966 km south from city B to city C in 1.50 h. For the total

trip, what are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the plane's displacement, the (c) magnitude and (d) direction of its average velocity, and (e) its average speed?

Answer:

a) 1074.27 km

b) 64.06^{\circ}

c) 477.453 km/h

d) 638.22 km/h

Explanation:

From Pythagoras theorem

AC² = AB²+BC²

AC=\sqrt{AB^2+BC^2}\\\Rightarrow AC=\sqrt{(-470)^2+(-966)^2}\\\Rightarrow AC=1074.27\ km

Displacement = 1074.27 km

tan\theta=\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}\\\Rightarrow tan\theta=\frac{966}{470}\\\Rightarrow \theta=tan^{-1}\frac{-966}{-470}\\\Rightarrow \theta=64.06^{\circ}

Direction = 64.06^{\circ}

Average velocity

v_{av}=\frac{1074.27}{2.25}\\\Rightarrow v_{av}=477.453\ km/h

Average velocity = 477.453 km/h

Average speed

s_{av}=\frac{470+966}{2.25}\\\Rightarrow s_{av}=638.22\ km/h

Average speed = 638.22 km/h

If the final speed of an object as is strikes the ground is 77 m/s and it was in the air for 6.5 seconds. What was the initial d
azamat

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 13.2 m/s

Explanation:

final speed (fs) = 77 m/s

t = 6.5 s

gravity (g) = 9.81 m/s2

initial speed (is) = ?

Formula

fs = is + gt     from this equation we clear "is" = fs - gt

Substitution                         is = 77 - (9,81)(6.5)

Process                               is = 77 - 63.8

                                            is = 13.2 m/s
