Answer:

The direction the plane would have to fly to compensate for a wind velocity of 62.0 km/h[N] is 4.5° S of W

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

Velocity of Jet = 792 km/h

Direction of jet velocity = West

Velocity of wind = 62.0 km/h

Direction of wind velocity = North

Therefore, the jet has to have a component of 62.0 km/h South of West to compensate for the wind velocity

The direction of the plane, θ° South of West (S of W) to compensate for the wind is given as follows;

Tan \left (\theta   \right )= \dfrac{62}{792} = \dfrac{31}{396}

Therefore;

\theta = tan^{-1}\left (\dfrac{31}{396}   \right ) = 4.476^{\circ} \approx 4.5^{\circ}

The direction the plane would have to fly to compensate for a wind velocity of 62.0 km/h[N] = 4.5° S of W.

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

a. The free body diagram for this object has been attached. It shows all the forces acting on the body at rest, including the friction force in the opposite direction to sliding of the object (assume it's left to right).

b. Since the object is in contact with the surface, there is a normal force acting on both of them and is equal to the weight exerted by each. This perpendicular force is defined by Newton's second law of motion.

c. The force of friction always acts in a direction opposite to the direction of motion of the body. F = mg ('a' for acceleration is replaced by 'g' gravity because acceleration in this case is just gravity).

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!

SSSSS [86.1K]

Explanation:

a) The angular speed omega is given defined as

omega = #rev/period = 1 rev/(0.6 s) = 1.7 rev/s

= (1.7 rev/s)×(2pi/rev) = 10.5 rad/s

b) v = (omega)×r

= (10.5 rad/s)(0.110 m)

= 1.16 m/s

Vladimir [108]
Most likely solid. Molecules move in a chaotic matter, which a Scottish botanist found out in the 19th century. In gases, this chaotic movement is the most “dramatic” and they move around freely; in liquids it’s a bit less noticeable, and in solids the particles oscillate around locked positions. Movement in plasma is similar to gas.

What is the primary ingredient of power yoga?
LuckyWell [14K]
The primary ingredient of power yoga was said to be heated. The heat makes the power yoga so particularly effective as a physical therapy. The heat is primarily used in shaping glasses to any figures that the person may want to. Power yoga can practically provide more space for fluids to carry the nutrients and remove toxins
