In 2 1/2 hours an airplane travels 1150 km against the wind. It takes 50 min to travel 450 km with the wind. Find the speed of t

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Velocity of airplane is 500 km/h

Velocity of wind is 40 km/h

Explanation:

$V_a$ = Velocity of airplane in still air

$V_w$ = Velocity of wind

Time taken by plane to travel 1150 km against the wind is 2.5 hours

$V_a-V_w=\frac {1150}{2.5}\\\Rightarrow V_a-V_w=460\quad (1)$

Time taken by plane to travel 450 km against the wind is 50 minutes = 50/60 hours

$V_a+V_w=\frac {450}{50}\times 60\\\Rightarrow V_a-V_w=540\quad (2)$

Subtracting the two equations we get

$V_a-V_w-V_a-V_w=460-540\\\Rightarrow -2V_w=-80\\\Rightarrow V_w=40\ km/h$

Applying the value of velocity of wind to the first equation

$V_a-40=460\\\Rightarrow V_a =500\ km/h$

∴ Velocity of airplane in still air is 500 km/h and Velocity of wind is 40 km/h

A wire of Nichrome (a nickelâ€“ chromiumâ€“ iron alloy commonly used in heating elements) is 1.0 m long and 1.0 mmÂ² in cross-se

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The conductivity of Nichrome is $2\times 10^6\ S/m$ .

Explanation:

Given:

Potential difference (V) = 2.0 V

Current flowing (I) = 4.0 A

Length of wire (L) = 1.0 m

Area of cross section of wire (A) = 1.0 mm² = 1 × 10⁻⁶ m² [1 mm² = 10⁻⁶ m²]

We know, from Ohm's law, that the ratio of voltage and current is always a constant and equal to the resistance of the resistor. Therefore, the resistance of the nichrome wire is given as:

$R=\frac{V}{A}=\frac{2.0}{4.0}=0.5\ \Omega$

Now, resistance of the nichrome wire in terms of its resistivity, length and area of cross section is given as:

$R=\rho\frac{L}{A}$

Where, $\rho\to resistivity\ of\ Nichrome$

Now, plug in all the values given and solve for $\rho$ . This gives,

$0.5\ \Omega=\rho\frac{1.0\ m}{1\times 10^{-6}\ m^2}\\\\\rho=\frac{0.5\times 1\times 10^{-6}}{1.0}=0.5\times 10^{-6}\ \Omega-m$

Now, conductivity of a material is the reciprocal of its resistivity. Therefore, the conductivity of Nichrome is given as:

$\sigma=\frac{1}{\rho}=\frac{1}{0.5\times 10^{-6}}=2\times 10^6\ S/m$

Conductivity is measured in Siemens per meter (S/m)

Therefore, the conductivity of Nichrome is $2\times 10^6\ S/m$ .

What is one way that light waves differ from sound waves?(1 point)

Shalnov [3]

Light waves are transverse while sound waves are longitudinal. Light waves can travel in vacuum. Sound waves require a material medium to travel, and hence, cannot travel in vacuum. The speed of light in a medium is constant.

Hope this helps!
