Suppose that a wind is blowing in the direction S45°E at a speed of 30 km/h. A pilot is steering a plane in the direction N60°E
Kay [80]

Answer:

The true course: 40.29^\circ north of east

The ground speed of the plane: 96.68 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

  • V_w = velocity of wind = 30\ km/h\ S45^\circ E = (30\cos 45^\circ\ \hat{i}-30\sin 45^\circ\ \hat{j})\ km/h = (21.21\ \hat{i}-21.21\ \hat{j})\ km/h
  • V_p = velocity of plane in still air = 100\ km/h\ N60^\circ E = (100\cos 60^\circ\ \hat{i}+100\sin 60^\circ\ \hat{j})\ km/h = (50\ \hat{i}+86.60\ \hat{j})\ km/h

Assume:

  • V_r = resultant velocity of the plane
  • \theta = direction of the plane with the east

Since the resultant is the vector addition of all the vectors. So, the resultant velocity of the plane will be the vector sum of the wind velocity and the plane velocity in still air.

\therefore V_r = V_p+V_w\\\Rightarrow V_r = (50\ \hat{i}+86.60\ \hat{j})\ km/h+(21.21\ \hat{i}-21.21\ \hat{j})\ km/h\\\Rightarrow V_r = (71.21\ \hat{i}+65.39\ \hat{j})\ km/h

Let us find the direction of this resultant velocity with respect to east direction:

\theta = \tan^{-1}(\dfrac{65.39}{71.21})\\\Rightarrow \theta = 40.29^\circ

This means the the true course of the plane is in the direction of 40.29^\circ north of east.

The ground speed will be the magnitude of the resultant velocity of the plane.

\therefore Magnitude = \sqrt{71.21^2+65.39^2} = 96.68\ km/h

Hence, the ground speed of the plane is 96.68 km/h.

A ball is thrown vertically upwards with an initial velocity of 20.00 m/s. Neglecting air resistance, how long is the ball in th
algol [13]

Answer:

1) The greatest height attained by the ball equals 20.387 meters.

2) The time it takes for the ball to reach 15 meters approximately equals 1 second.

Explanation:

The greatest height will be attained when the ball stop's in the air and starts falling back to the earth.

thus using third equation of kinematics we obtain the height attained as

v^2=u^2+2as

where

'v' is the final speed of the ball

'u' is the initial speed of the ball

'a' is the acceleration that the ball is under which in this case equals 9.81 m/s^{2}

's' is the distance it covers

Thus for maximum height applying the values in the equation we get

0=20^{2}-2\times 9.81\times h\\\\\therefore h=\frac{20^{2}}{2\times 9.81}=20.387meters

Using the same equation we can find the speed of the ball when it reaches 15 meters of height as  

v^2=20^{2}-2\times 9.81\times 15\\\\v^{2}=105.7\\\\\therefore v=10.28m/s

the time it takes to reduce the velocity to this value can be found by first equation of kinematics as

v=u+at\\\\t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\\t=\frac{10.28-20}{-9.81}=0.991seconds\approx 1second

A 2.0-kg object moving at 5.0 m/s encounters a 30-Newton restive force
sveta [45]

The impulse experienced by the object is 3 N s.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Impulse is also termed as change in the momentum of the object. So, it is directly proportional to the force acting on the object and the time for which the force is acting on that object.

Thus, impulse experienced by an object is the product of force acting on the object for a given time period. So, it is the sudden influence of force on the given volume.

As the force is given as 30 N and the duration or the time is given as 0.1 seconds. Then, the impulse will be product of force with duration.

Impulse = Force × ΔTime = Force × Duration

Impulse = 30 × 0.1 = 3 N s.

Thus, the impulse experienced by the object is 3 N s.
