Answer:

272.05 K; 489.69 °R; -1.11 °C

Explanation:

Fahrenheit can be converted to degrees Celsius using the following formula:

°C = 5/9 x (°F - 32) = -1.11 °C

The temperature in Kelvin is calculated from the temperature in degrees Celsius as follows:

K = °C + 273.15 = 272.05 K

The temperature on the Rankine scale is calculated from Kelvin as follows:

°R = 1.8K = 1.8(272.05) = 489.69 °R

Answer:

Plane will 741.6959 m apart after 1.7 hour

Explanation:

We have given time = 1.7 hr

So if we draw the vectors of a 2d graph we see that the difference in angles is = $102^{\circ}-65.3^{\circ}=36.7^{\circ}$

Speed of first plane = 730 m/h

So distance traveled by first plane = 730×1.7 = 1241 m

Speed of second plane = 590 m/hr

So distance traveled by second plane = 590×1.7 = 1003 m

We represent these distances as two sides of the triangle, and the distance between the planes as the side opposing the angle 58.6.

Using the law of cosine, $r^2$ representing the distance between the planes, we see that:

$r^2=1241^2+1003^2-2\times 1003\times 1241cos(36.7)=550112.8295$

r = 741.6959 m

dusya [7]

Answer:

28 degree C

Explanation:

We are given that

$T_1=4.00^{\circ}$

$R_1=217.7 \Ohm$

$R_2=215.1\Ohm$

$\alpha=-5.00\times 10^{-4}C^{-1}$

We have to find the temperature on a spring day when resistance is 215.1 ohm.

We know that

$\alpha(T_2-T_1)=\frac{R_2}{R_2}-1$

Using the formula

$-5.00\times 10^{-4}(T_2-4)=\frac{215.1}{217.7}-1$

$-5\times 10^{-4}(T_2-4)=0.988-1=-0.012$

$T_2-4=\frac{0.012}{5\times 10^{-4}}=24$

$T_2=24+4=28^{\circ}C$

Hence, the temperature on a spring day 28 degree C.
