A van is traveling on a road at a speed of 55 km/h. A girl sitting near the driver of the van throws a paper airplane to a boy a

t the back of the van with a speed of 2 km/h.
The speed of the paper airplane, to the nearest whole number relative to a stationary observer on the side of the road, is ___ km/h.

Answer:

53 km/h

Explanation:

Let's take as positive direction the direction in which the van is moving. In this case, we can write as follows:

- Velocity of the van relative to the road: v_v = 55 km/h

- Velocity of the paper airplane relative to the van: v_a = -2 km/h (with a negative sign since it is moving into opposite direction)

Therefore, the velocity of the paper airplane relative to the road (stationary observer) will be

v=v_v + v_a = 55 km/h - 2 km/h = 53 km/h

<span>A van is traveling on a road at a speed of 55 km/h relative to a
stationary observer on the side of the road. A girl sitting near the
driver of the van throws a paper airplane to a boy at the back of the
van with a speed of 2 km/h relative to the girl, the boy, and the van.

The speed of the paper airplane, relative to the same stationary observer
on the side of the road, is (55 - 2) = 53 km/h.  No rounding is necessary.</span>

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

D) The negatively charged electrons

Electricity passes through metallic conductors as a flow of negatively charged electrons. The electrons are free to move from one atom to another. We call them a sea of delocalised electrons. Current was originally defined as the flow of charges from positive to negative. Please give me the brainliest answer?

If you were thinking about a washing machine as a system which of the following represents the inputs?
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

The answer is a, the dirty cloths, water and detergent.

Explanation:

The answer is the above selected because the inputs basically represent the data that are passed through the system to generate the output.

In this case, the inputs are the aforementioned in the answer while the possible output would literally be the clean cloths.

A parallel-plate capacitor is connected to a battery and becomes fully charged. The capacitor is then disconnected, and the sepa
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Increases

Explanation:

The expression for the capacitance is as follows as;

C=\frac{\epsilon _{0}A}{d}

Here, C is the capacitance, \epsilon _{0} is the permittivity of free space, A is the area and d is the distance between the parallel plate capacitor.

It can be concluded from the above expression, the capacitance is inversely proportional to the distance. According to the given problem, the capacitor is disconnected from the battery and the distance between the plates is increased. Then, the capacitance of the given capacitor will decrease in this case.

The expression for the energy stored in the parallel plate capacitor is as follows;

E=\frac{Q^{2}}{2C}

Here, E is the energy stored in the capacitor, C is the capacitance and Q is the charge.

Energy stored in the given capacitor is inversely proportional to the capacitor. The charge on the capacitor is constant. In the given problem, as the distance between the parallel plates is being separated, the energy stored in this capacitor increases.

Therefore, the option (c) is correct.
