Answer:

The resultant velocity is 360.5 m/s  and direction 79° north of east.

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity of airplane = 300 m/s

Velocity of wind = 100 m/s

Angle θ₁ = 25°

Angle θ₂ =35°

The horizontal velocity component

Using formula of velocity

v_{x}=v_{1}\cos\theta-v_{2}\cos\theta

Put the value into the formula

v_{x}=300\cos65-100\cos55

v_{x}=69.42\ m/s

The vertical velocity component

Using formula of velocity

v_{y}=v_{1}\sin\theta+v_{2}\sin\theta

Put the value into the formula

v_{y}=300\sin65+100\sin55

v_{y}=353.8\ m/s

We need to calculate the resultant velocity

Using formula of resultant velocity

v=\sqrt{v_{x}^2+v_{y}^2}

Put the value into the formula

v=\sqrt{69.42^2+353.8^2}

v=360.5\ m/s

We need to calculate the direction of the resultant velocity

Using formula of direction

\tan\theta=\dfrac{v_{y}}{v_{x}}

Put the value into the formula

\theta=\tan^{-1}(\dfrac{353.8}{69.42})

\theta=79^{\circ}

Hence, The resultant velocity is 360.5 m/s  and direction 79° north of east.

The center of gravity of a basketball is located _______.
zhenek [66]

Answer:

at its centre

Explanation:

The centre of gravity is a point inside the body where entire weight os the body is said to be concentrated. For geometrical symmetric bodies it lies at the geometric centre of the body.

The base ball is a spherical body, so its centre of gravity lies at its centre.
