consider east-west direction along X-axis  and north-south direction along Y-axis

V_{ra} = velocity of migrating robin relative to air = 12 j m/s

(where "j" is unit vector in Y-direction)

V_{ag} = velocity of air relative to ground = 6.3 i m/s

(where "i" is unit vector in X-direction)

V_{rg} = velocity of migrating robin relative to ground = ?

using the equation

V_{rg} = V_{ra} + V_{ag}

V_{rg} = 12 j + 6.3 i

V_{rg} = 6.3 i + 12 j

magnitude : sqrt((6.3)² + (12)²) = 13.6 m/s

direction : tan⁻¹(12/6.3) = 62.3 deg north of east

Consider a circuit with a main wire that branches into two other wires. If the current is 10 A in the main wire and 4 A in one o
k0ka [10]

If the primary wire's power is 10 A and one branch's power is 4 A, another branch's power will be 6A.

According to Kirchhoff's current law (KCL), the total current flowing through a parallel route circuit's junction equals the total current flowing away from it.

Provided that one of the two branches through which power exits the intersection has a flow of 4A, and also that the junction's overall flow entering it is 10A, the entire current going the junction should be 10A.

Consequently, the second wire's power may be expressed as;

I = I1+ I2 [ where I= total current (10A);

                I1= current in one branch (4A) &

                I2= current in another branch]

⇒I2 = I - I1

⇒I2 = 10A - 4A

⇒I2 = 6A

Therefore, it can be concluded that when the primary wire bears 10A power having 4A in one of its branches, another branch carries 6A power.

"Wavelength" is the distance between two crests or two Troughs.

It is the <span>distance between compressions or the distance between rarefactions on a longitudinal wave too!

So, your final answer is "Wavelength".

A woman on a bridge 95.6 m high sees a raft floating at a constant speed on the river below. She drops a stone from rest in an a
NARA [144]

Answer:

The speed of the raft is 1.05 m/s

Explanation:

The equation for the position of the stone is as follows:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

Where:

y = height of the stone at time t

y0 = initial height

v0 = initial speed

t = time

g = acceleration due to gravity

The equation for the position of the raft is as follows:

x = x0 + v · t

Where:

x = position of the raft at time t

x0 = initial position

v = velocity

t = time

To find the speed of the raft, we have to know how much time the raft traveled until the stone reached the river. For that, we can calculate the time of free fall of the stone:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²      (v0=0 because the stone is dropped from rest)

If we place the origin of the frame of reference at the river below the bridge:

0 m = 95.6 m - 9.8 m/s² · t²

-95.6 m / -9,8 m/s² = t²

t = 3.12 s

We know that the raft traveled (4.84 m - 1.56 m) 3.28 m in that time, then the velocity of the raft will be:

x/t = v

3.28 m / 3.12 s = v

v = 1.05 m/s
