Answer:

speed of plane = 157.5 mph

speed o wind = 17.5 mph

Explanation:

Distance traveled to move from one position to other is given as

d = 700 miles

time taken by it

t = 4 hr

so here the speed is given as

v_p + v_w = \frac{700}{4}

v_p + v_w = 175 mph

during his return journey we have

v_p - v_w = \frac{700}{5}

v_p - v_w = 140 mph

now from above two equations we have

v_p = 157.5 mph

v_w = 17.5 mph

A proton is 0.9 meters away from a 1.4 C charge. What is the magnitude of the electric force between the proton and the charge
Digiron [165]

Answer:

F = 2.49 x 10⁻⁹ N

Explanation:

The electrostatic force between two charged bodies is given by Colomb's Law:

F = \frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\

where,

F = Electrostatic Force = ?

k = colomb's constant = 9 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²

q₁ = charge on proton = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

q₂ = second charge = 1.4 C

r = distace between charges = 0.9 m

Therefore,

F = \frac{(9\ x\ 10^9\ N.m^2/C^2)(1.6\ x\ 10^{-19}\ C)(1.4\ C)}{(0.9\ m)^2}

<u>F = 2.49 x 10⁻⁹ N</u>

A 5 kilograms bowling ball is dropped out a window. It hits the ground, and bounces upward. The velocity change of the ball is n
ioda

Answer:

13.5

Explanation:

Mass: 5kg

Initial Velocity: -15

Final Velocity: 12

Force: 10

We can use the equation: Vf = Vi + at

We need to find acceleration, and we can use the equation, F=ma,

We have mass and the force so it would look like this, 10=5a, and 5 times 2 would equal 10, so acceleration would be 2.

Now we have all the variables to find time.

Back to Vf = Vi + at, plug the numbers in, 12 = -15 + 2(t)

Plugging them in into desmos gives 13.5 for time.

A new landowner has a triangular piece of flat land she wishes to fence. Starting at the first corner, she measures the first si
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Length of third side = 3.97m

Explanation:

First of all, let we draw the triangle from the given information assuming our first corner is A. second corner is B and third corner is C.

From A-B we have distance = 5.5m = Say it c

From B-C we have distance = 4.3m = Say it a

From A-C we have distance = ? = Say it b which we have to find out.

Using the Law of Cosines: The square of the unknown side equals to the sum of squares of other 2 sides and subtracting 2*(Product of other sides)*(Cos(Angle opposite to the unknown side)

For our case it is:

b² = a² + c² - 2acCos(B)         -  Say it equation 1

From the attached triangle you may see that, a & c are our known sides and B is the angle opposite to the side b.

There values are:

a = 4.3m;  c = 5.5m ; Angle B = 0.8 rad = 0.8 * 57.3 = 45.84 degrees where 1 rad = 57.3 degrees

Now by putting the respectve values in equation 1 we have:

b² = (4.3)² + (5.5)² - 2*4.3*5.5*Cos(45.84)

b² = 18.49 + 30.25 - 32.95

b² = 15.79

b  = √15.79

b = 3.97m

Thus the length of third side is 3.97m.

PS: The picture of triangle is being attached for yours understanding.
