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.

A crate remains stationary after it has been placed on a ramp inclined at an angle with the horizontal. Which of the following s
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

d. It is equal to the component of the gravitational force acting down the ramp.

Explanation:

The stationary crate is inclined at an angle with the horizontal. The Recall, Frictional Force is any Force that opposes motion.

Because the Force of Friction that is opposing the motion of the crate along the inclination side.

Therefore this Frictional force is balanced or equal to the force that is driving the inclined force.

Hence Frictional Force is equal to the Gravitational Force that is acting in the ramp, that is why the crate is stationery.
