Answer:

speed wind  Vw = 54.04 km / h   θ = 87.9º

Explanation:

We have a speed vector composition exercise

In the half hour the airplane has traveled X = 108 km to the west, but is located at coordinated 119 km west and 27 km south

Let's add the vectors in each coordinate axis

   

X axis (East-West)

      -Xvion - Xw = -119

      Xw = -Xavion + 119

      Xw = 119 -108

      Xwi = 1 km

Calculate the speed for time of  t = 0.5 h

     Vwx = Xw / t

     Vwx= 1 /0.5

     Vwx = - 2 km / h

Y Axis (North-South)

    Y plane - Yi = -27

    Y plane = 0

    Yw = 27 km

    Vwy = 27 /0.5

    Vwy = 54 km / h

Let's use the Pythagorean theorem and trigonometry to compose the answer

 Vw = √ (Vwx² + Vwy²)

  Vw = R 2² + 54²

  Vw = 54.04 km / h

  tan θ = Vwy / Vwx

  tan θ = 54/2 = 27

  θ = Tan⁻¹ 1 27

  θ = 87.9º

The speed direction is 87. 9th measure In the third quadrant of the X axis in the direction 90-87.9 = 2.1º  west from the south

Which type of wave results from a moderately sloping coastal region?
Naddik [55]

Hey there!

Your answer: Spilling breaker

Spilling breaker usually occurs when a beach or ocean is flat, and as the waves of the wind continues to happen, slowly the region would eventually become a slope.

It's almost like play-dough. Let's say that we set a perfect flat surface of play-dough on the table. As we continue slide our hands one direction, doesn't the play dough have more on one side than the other? It eventually contains a slope if you add enough from the first place.

Your answer: Spilling breaker

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Hello your question has some missing parts attached below is the complete question

answer : 4 μm

Explanation:

since the scale bar works the same way as a scale on a map , each bar will therefore represent 1 μm and the mature parent cell's is about 4 times the labeled value hence the Mature parent cell diameter will approximately be : 4 μm

Part of one row of the periodic table is shown. 4 blue boxes in a row. The first has S n at the center and 50 above with tin and
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Atoms of tellurium (Te) have the greatest average number of neutrons equal to 76.

Explanation:

In the periodic table, Elements are represented with their respected symbols. Above the symbol is the elements atomic number which is equal to the number of protons in each atom. Below the symbol is the mass number of that element which is roughly equal to the sum of neutrons and protons of that atom.

To calculate the number of neutrons we can take the difference of Atomic number and mass number:

Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number

<u>- Tin:</u>

Atomic number = 50

Mass number = 119

Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number = 119 - 50

Number of neutrons = 69

<u>- Antimony(Sb):</u>

Atomic number = 51

Mass number = 122

Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number = 122 - 51

Number of neutrons = 71

<u>- Tellurium(Te):</u>

Atomic number = 52

Mass number = 128

Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number = 128 - 52

Number of neutrons = <u>76</u>

<u>- Iodine(I):</u>

Atomic number = 53

Mass number = 127

Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number = 127 - 53

Number of neutrons = 74

Here, the greatest number of neutrons is for the atoms of Tellurium(Te).
