Problem 1: Problem 1.58 in Young & Freedman A plane leaves the airport in Galisteo and flies 170 km at 68.0° east of north;

then it changes direction to fly 230 km at 36.0° south of east, after which it makes an immediate emergency landing in a pasture. When the airport sends out a rescue crew, in which direction and how far should this crew fly to go directly to this plane?

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall convert the displacement in vector form using unit vector i and j

consider east as x axis and north as y axis

170 km at 68.0° east of north

D₁ = 170 sin68 i + 170cos 68 j

= 157 i + 63.68 j

230 km at 36.0° south of east

D₂ = 230 cos36 i - 230 sin 36 j

= 186 i - 135.2 j

Resultant Displacement = D₁ +D₂

= 157 i + 63.68 j  + 186 i - 135.2 j

= 343 i  - 71.52 j

Resultant magnitude

= √ ( 343² + 71.52²

= 350 km

Angle

= tan⁻¹ ( - 71.52 / 343 )

12⁰ south of east .

A woman dropped a dime in a wishing well , she heard it 30 sec later ..Find velocity on impact while moving at 9.8 m/s 2
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

The velocity at impact is 222.2 m/s

Explanation:

The given information are;

The time at which the woman heard the sound of the coin after dropping it into the wishing well = 30 seconds

The average speed of sound in air = 344 m/s

The time in which the dime travel = t₁

The time in which the sound travel = t₂

1/2 × 9.8 × t₁² = 344 × t₂

t₁ + t₂ = 30

4.9·t₁² = 344 × (30 - t₁)

4.9·t₁² + 344·t₁ - 10320 = 0

Which gives -344±

t_1 = \dfrac{-344\pm \sqrt{344^{2}-4\times 4.9 \times 10320}}{2\times 4.9}

t₁  = 22.676 seconds or -92.9 seconds

Therefore the correct natural time is t₁  = 22.676 seconds

The velocity at impact, v = g×t₁ = 9.8 × 22.676  = 222.2 m/s

The velocity at impact= 222.2 m/s.

how come if you jump in a train you will land in the same spot but if you jump on top of the train you won't? i tried to make it
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

Well, it has to do something with the force of the train. It's pulling you, a force of gravity

However jumping off results in a different sort of energy, the train know is moving farther away as you jump down. So you end up in a different place

In a cathode ray tube, the number of electrons that reach the fluorescent screen is controlled by the:
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

Grid

Explanation:

The number of electrons attaining the fluorescent light is regulated by the grid in a cathode ray tube.When the heater is supplied with current, it allows the electrons to emit from the cathode. Before approaching the anode the electrons pass through grid opening. The number of electrons attempting to reach the anode may also be regulated by managing the number of electrons passing through the grid.
