A car travels due east with a speed of 52.0 km/h. Raindrops are falling at a constant speed vertically with respect to the Earth

. The traces of the rain on the side windows of the car make an angle of 66.0° with the vertical. Find the velocity of the rain with respect to the following reference frames. (Enter the magnitude of the velocity.)
(a) the car
m/s
(b) the Earth
m/s

Answer:

a) v = 6.43 m/s

b) v = 15.8 m/s

Explanation:

Speed of car = 56 km/h

56 km/h = 14.4 m/s

Angle rain makes on the glass to the vertical = 66°

Thus knowing that the opposite side of the angle is the distance moved by the car, and the adjacent side is the distance traveled by the rain in the same time

both of which are directly proportional to their velocities

Then

tan(66°) = 14.44m/s ÷ x

or x = 14.44/tan(66°)

Which is the vertical raindrop velocity of the relative to earth

v = 6.43 m/s vertically towards earth

For v relative to the car is we have vector sum of both velocities

v = √(14.44^2 + 6.43^2) = 15.8 m/s which is the velocity relative to car

= 15.8 m/s

Explain how oxygen is obtained by most complex organisms and then used during cellular respiration.(Please help quick)​
lisov135 [29]

Answer:complex

Brainly.com

Question

Discuss the importance of oxygen to all living organisms, and describe how three different organisms—human, flatworm, and fern—obtain the oxygen they need.

Answer · 38 votes

(Question 1):Oxygen is the key for generating energy in cellular respiration. The cellular respiration is a complex biological process that breaks down sugars, fat and proteins and transforms these materials into energy for the functioning of the organism. Oxygen is needed at the end of this process, when electrons liberated in the respiration are transported through the inner membranes of the cells, and the oxygen "attracts" these electrons (like bees to honey) and makes possible the production of great quantities of chemical energy in the said membranes.(Question 2):Earth's natural bodies of water have a low oxygen concentration--much lower than the level of oxygen in air at the earth's surface. Smaller organisms can obtain sufficient oxygen through the skin (e.g. flatworms), but larger organisms require special structures to collect enough oxygen to sustain life. This oxygen comes from molecules of oxygen gas dissolved in the water. The oxygen atom present in the water molecule is n…

a car carrying a 80-kgkg test dummy crashes into a wall at 28 m/sm/s and is brought to rest in 0.10 ss. part a what is the magni
iragen [17]

The magnitude of the average force exerted by the seat belt on the dummy is 224N .

<h3>What is an average force ?</h3>

The average force is the force produced by an object moving over a specific period of time at a given rate of speed, or velocity. This velocity is not instantaneous or precisely measured, as the word "average" indicates.

<h3>Briefing:</h3>

mass of the dummy (m) = 80kg

velocity of the dummy (v) = 28 m/s

time (t) = 10 seconds

Average force exerted (F)

To calculate the average force;

According to the formula;

F = (m × v) ÷ t

Where;

F represents the force exerted

m represents the mass of the dummy

v represents the velocity

t represents the time

F = m * v/t

F = 80 *28/10

F = 224

F = 224 N

The force exerted by the seat belt on the dummy is 224N .

A 0.145 kg baseball is flying at a height of 2.50 m. How much potential energy
Studentka2010 [4]

Gravitational potential energy is the energy stored in an object as the result of its vertical position or height. It can be calculated as its weight times the height. This is:

\boxed{U_g=W\cdot h=mgh}

Where:

  • W is the weight of the object
  • m is the mass
  • g is gravitational acceleration
  • h is the height

Evaluating:

U_g = (0.145\;kg)(9.8\;m/s^2)(2.50\;m)\\\\\boxed{U_g=3.5525\;J}

R/ The ball has 3.5525 J of potential energy.
