a plane is flying due east in still air at 395 km/h. suddenly, the plane is hit by wind blowing at 55km/h toward the west. what

is the resultant velocity of the plane

Let's be clear:  The plane's "395 km/hr" is speed relative to the
air, and the wind's "55 km/hr" is speed relative to the ground.

Before the wind hits, the plane moves east at 395 km/hr relative
to both the air AND the ground.

After the wind hits, the plane still maintains the same air-speed.
That is, its velocity relative to the air is still 395 km/hr east.
But the wind vector is added to the air-speed vector, and the
plane's velocity <span>relative to the ground drops to 340 km/hr east</span>.

What effects do coil of wire on a compass after it has been connected to a battery​
Yanka [14]

Explanation:

The compass needle moved when the wire was connected to the battery. The important point here is that the needle is affected by the wire only when both ends of the wire are connected to the battery because only at this time is current flowing through the circuit.

A deuteron consists of one proton and one neutron. A deuteron moving horizontally enters a uniform, vertical magnetic field of 0
Helen [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the velocity of deuteron be v then force on it in magnetic field

Bqv , B is magnetic field and q is charge on deuteron . This force will provide centripetal force for circular path so

mv² / r = Bqv   m is mass of deuteron and r is radius of circular path

v = Bqr / m

(.5 x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 55.6 x 10⁻² )/ 3.34 x 10⁻²⁷

= 13.31 x 10⁶ m /s

In doing a load of clothes, a clothes dryer uses 16 A of current at 240 V for 45 min. A personal computer, in contrast, uses 2.7
EastWind [94]

Answer:

(a) Total time will be 8.05 hour

(B) Total cost will be $417.6                

Explanation:

We have given dryer uses 16 A of current so current i = 16 A

Voltage V = 240 volt

Time t = 45 minutes =45×60 = 2700 sec

So power P = VI = 240×16 = 3840 W

So energy E = power×time = 3840×45×60 = 9396 KJ

(A) Now current in the computer i = 2.7 A

Voltage V = 120 V

So power P = 120×2.7 = 324 W

Now computer is using energy of dryer

So time by which it will use energy is t=\frac{9396000}{324}=29000sec=8.05hour

So time will be 8.05 hour

(b) Cost per kilowatt is $0.12

So total cost =3480×0.12 = $417.6

Show that (a)KE=1/2mv2
evablogger [386]

Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{see \: below}}}}}

Explanation:

\underline{ \bold{ \sf{To \: prove \: that \: kinetic \: energy =  \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2} }}}

Let us consider, a body of mass ' m ' is lying at rest ( initial velocity = 0 ) on a smooth surface. Let a constant force F displaces this body in its own direction by a displacement ' d '. Let 'v' be it's final velocity. The work done ' W ' by the force is given by :

\sf{W = FD}

⇒\sf{W = m \:  \times a \:  \times s} \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: ( \: ∴ \: f \:  =  \: ma \: ; \: s \:  = d)

⇒\sf{W = m \:  \times  \frac{v - u}{t}  \times  \frac{u + v}{2}  \times t \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: (∴ \: a =   \frac{v - u}{t} and \: s =  \frac{u + v}{2}  \times t}

⇒\sf{W = m \times  \frac{ {v}^{2}  -  {u}^{2} }{2} }

⇒\sf{W =  \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2}  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: (since, \: initial \: velocity(u) = 0)}

The work done becomes the kinetic energy of the body. Thus, the kinetic energy of a body of mass ' m : moving with the velocity equal to 'v ' is 1 / 2 mv²

∴ \sf{KE=  \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2} }

\sf{ \underline{ \bold{  {proved}}}}

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!
