A pilot heads his jet due east. The jet has a speed of 475 mi/h relative to the air. The wind is blowing due north with a speed

of 30 mi/h. (Assume that the i vector points east, and the j vector points north.)
a. Express the velocity of the wind as a vector in component form.
b. Express the velocity of the jet relative to the air as a vector in component form.
c. Find the true velocity of the jet as a vector.
d. Find the true speed of the jet. (Round your answer to the nearest integer.)
e. Find the direction of the jet.

Explanation:

a. The velocity of the wind as a vector in component form will be represented as v vector:

    v=30j

b.The velocity of the jet relative to the air as a vector in component form will be represented as u vector

    u=475i

c. The true velocity of the jet as a vector will be represented as w:

  w=u+v

  w=475i+30j

d.  The true speed of the jet will be calculated as:

    IwI=\sqrt{(475)^2+(30)^2}

    IwI=\sqrt{225625+900}

    IwI=\sqrt{226525}

    IwI=476 mi/h

e. The direction of the jet will be:

tita=tan^{-1}\frac{30}{475}

tita=tan^{-1}(0.0632)

tita=3.62degrees,or,N86.38degreesS

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The dimensionality of B is <em>length</em> per cubic <em>time</em>.

Explanation:

Units for displacement and time are <em>length</em> [L] and <em>time</em> [T], respectively. Then, formula can be tested for dimensional analysis as follows:

[L] = B\cdot [T]^{3}

Now, let is clear B to determine its units:

B = \frac{[L]}{[T]^{3}}

The dimensionality of B is <em>length</em> per cubic <em>time</em>.

When a rope is wrapped around a wheel (or pulley) and pulled, the lever arm is the ________ Blank 1 of the wheel and the angle b
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

the DISTANCE between the lever arm and the force is always 90º

Explanation:

In this exercise, you are asked to complete the missing words so that the phrase makes sense.

note that the torque is

              τ = F x r

where bold indicates vectors

When the rope is pulled, the DISTANCE between the lever arm and the force is always 90º

The figure (Figure 1) shows the velocity of a solar-powered motorhome (RV) as a function of time. The driver accelerates from a
SpyIntel [72]

Explanation :

It is given that, the driver accelerates from a stop sign, cruises for 20 s at a constant speed of 60 km/h, and then brakes to come to a stop 40 s after leaving the stop sign.

We know that acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity.

a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}

Where

dv is the change in velocity, dv = 0 - 60 m/s = -60 m/s

dt is the change in time, dt = 40 s - 30 s = 10 s

So, a=\dfrac{-60\ m/s}{10\ s}

a = -6\ m/s^2

From the graph it is clear that, from 30 s to 40 s the car is decelerating. So, at every second within this time the value of acceleration will be same i.e. -6\ m/s^2.

There are three long parallel wires arranged so that, in cross-section, they occupy the points of an equilateral triangle. Is th
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Yes, there is such a way.

Explanation:

If currents flow in the same direction in two or more long parallel wires, there will be an attractive force between the wires. If the current flows in different directions, there will be a repulsive force between the wires. In this case, these three parallel wires, can be be made to carry current in the same direction, creating an attractive force between all three wires.

Note that it is not possible to have at the least one of them carry current in the opposite direction and still have an attractive current between them.
