A commuter airplane starts from an airport and takes theroute. The plane first flies to city A, located 175 km away in a directi

on 30.0° north of east. Next, it flies for 150 km 20.0° west of north, to city B. Finally, the plane flies 190 km due west, to city C. Find the location of city C relative to the location of the starting point.

Answer:

245.45km in a direction 21.45° west of north from city A

Explanation:

Let's place the origin of a coordinate system at city A.

The final position of the airplane is given by:

rf = ra + rb + rc    where ra, rb and rc are the vectors of the relative displacements the airplane has made. If we separate this equation into its x and y coordinates:

rfX = raX+ rbX + rcX = 175*cos(30)-150*sin(20)-190 = -89.75km

rfY = raY + rbY + rcT = 175*sin(30)+150*cos(20) = 228.45km

The module of this position is:

rf = \sqrt{rfX^2+rfY^2} = 245.45km

And the angle measure from the y-axis is:

\alpha =atan(rfX/rfY) = 21.45\°

So the answer is 245.45km in a direction 21.45° west of north from city A

A piece of warm concrete is placed in a cold-water tank, and energy flows between the concrete and the water. Which way does the
sammy [17]

Answer:

Heat flows from hot to cold objects. When a hot and a cold body are in thermal contact, they exchange heat energy until they reach thermal equilibrium, with the hot body cooling down and the cold body warming up. This is a natural phenomenon we experience all the time.

When reaching a boundary between two media (1 and 2), an incident ray is partially reflected and partially refracted. The ray is
lukranit [14]

Answer:

The angle of incidence when the reflected ray is perpendicular to the incident ray = 45°

Explanation:

According to Snell's Law,

n₁ sin θ₁ = n₂ sin θ₂

When the angle between the incident ray and reflected ray is 90°, the angle of incidence is θ₁ and the angle of reflection, θ₂ = 90° - θ₁ and the index of refraction in the Snell's Law for both media would be the same, n₁ = n₂ = n

n sin θ₁ = n sin (90° - θ₁)

Note that from trigonometric relations,

Sin (90° - θ₁) = cos θ₁

n sin θ₁ = n cos θ₁

(sin θ₁)/(cos θ₁) = 1

tan θ₁ = 1

θ₁ = arctan 1 = 45°

Hope this Helps!!!

The spectrum of light emitted by helium atoms is different than that emitted by hydrogen atoms because
MaRussiya [10]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

The different atoms have different quantized energy levels

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • The atoms of different elements have different energy levels because they have different nuclear charges and spins, and different numbers of electrons.
  • Each different kind of atom, like hydrogen or radon, has a distinct nuclear charge and number of electrons. This makes the potential energy function different for each atom, and therefore results in different energy levels.
  • In an emmission spectra, each bright band corresponds to a difference between energy levels within the atom.
