An airplane capable of an airspeed of 100 km/hr is 60 km off the coast above the sea. If the wind is blowing from the coast out
1 answer:
To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to relative speed. We will obtain it from the deduction made on the aircraft as a speed of the two components that act on it. Through the kinematic equations of motion, we can then calculate the time required.
The airspeed of airplane is 100km/h while the wind is blowing from the coast out to sea at 40km/h. Wind is blowing from the coast out to sea means that it opposes the airspeed. Therefore, resultant relative speed of airplane is
Total distance is 60km then with this net velocity we have that the required time is
Where,
x = Displacement
t = Time
v = Velocity
Replacing,
Therefore the time taken by the plane to reach the shore is 60 minutes

The difference in electric potential energy between the two points is
where q is the magnitude of the charge and
is the electric potential difference.
But for energy conservation, the difference in electric potential energy
between the two points is equal to the work done to move the charge between A and B:
so we have
and by substituting the numbers of the problem, we find the value of:

Answer:
Force, |F| = 2100 N
Explanation:
It is given that,
Water from a fire hose is directed horizontally against at a rate of 50.0 kg/s,
Initial speed, v = 42 m/s
The momentum is reduced to zero, final speed, v = 0
The relation between the force and the momentum is given by :
|F| = 2100 N
So, the magnitude of the force exerted on the wall is 2100 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
