An airplane flies 700 miles with a tail wind in 2.0 hrs. If it takes 2.5 hrs to cover the same distance against the headwind, th
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

B).315mph

Explanation:

Let the speed of the plane = p

Let the speed of the wind = w

Set up the system equation as;

                                     Relative V:               Time:                          Distance:

in wind direction:          p + w                         2                                  700

against wind:                 p - w                         2.5                                700

2(p + w) = 700

2.5(p - w) = 700

2p + 2w = 700

2.5p - 2.5w = 700

2.5  x:     5p + 5w = 1750

2  x:        5p - 5w = 1400

10p = 3150

p = 315 mph

Therefore, he speed of the plane in still air is 315 mph

In major league baseball, the pitcher's mound is 60 feet from the batter.If a pitcher throws a 89 mph fastball, how much time el
lianna [129]
<span>Hitting can be broken down into three segments; SEE, REACT, SWING. You watch the ball in the pitcher's hand during the windup and you watch the ball leave the pitcher's hand when it is thrown and you watch the spin of the ball as it comes towards the plate. That is SEE. You determine what the pitch is (fastball, curveball, etc.), you determine where the ball is going to go and you determine whether it is headed towards an area that you think you can get good wood on it. That is REACT. You swing if you like the pitch or don't swing if you don't like the pitch. That is SWING. It doesn't make any difference whether you are playing with a tennis ball or a golf ball or a baseball. The theory and mechanics are the same. So, to answer your question I would say the more you practice the better you will be, regardless of the type of ball you use to practice with.</span>
