You are riding in a hot air balloon that, relative to the ground, has a velocity of 6.0 m/s due east. You see a hawk moving dire

ctly away from the balloon with a velocity relative to you of 2.0 m/s due north. What are the magnitude and direction of the hawk’s velocity relative to the ground? Express the directional angle relative to due east. Note that both the balloon and the hawk are in horizontal motion.

Answer:Velocity = 6.325m/s

Directional angle= 18.43°

Explanation:

Using Right angle triangle

Let Velocity of ballon&hawk be VHB represent the height of the triangle.

Let Velocity of balloon angle ground be VBG represent adjacent of the triangle.

Let Velocity of hawk and ground BE VHG represent the hypothesis.

Theta = opp/Adj= VHB/VBG

using pythagorean

VHG= SQRT(VHB^2+VBG^2)

VHG= sqrt(2^2+6^2)

VHG= sqrt(4+36)

VHG= 6.325m/s

Tan theta= 2/6

Tan theta =0.3333

Tan^-1 0.3333=18.43°

A research vessel is mapping the bottom of the ocean using sonar. It emits a short sound pulse called "ping" downward. The frequ
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

d = 4180.3m

wavelengt of sound is 0.251m

Explanation:

Given that

frequency of the sound is 5920 Hz

v=1485m/s

t=5.63s

let d represent distance from the vessel to the ocean bottom.

an echo travels a distance equivalent to 2d, that is to and fro after it reflects from the obstacle.

velocity=\frac{distance}{time}\\\\ v=\frac{2d}{t} \\\\vt=2d\\\\d=\frac{vt}{2}

d=\frac{1485*5.63}{2}\\d= 4180.3m

wavelengt of sound is \lambda = v/f

= (1485)/(5920)

= 0.251 m

Earth’s atmosphere is in hydrostatic equilibrium. What this means is that the pressure at any point in the atmosphere must be hi
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer: The pressure that one experiences on the Mount Everest will be different from the one, in a classroom. It is because pressure and height are inversely proportional to each other. This means that as we move up, the height keeps on increasing but the pressure will keep on decreasing. This is the case that will be observed when one stands on the Mount Everest as the pressure is comparatively much lower there.

It is because as we move up, the amount of air molecules keeps on decreasing but all of the air molecules are concentrated on the lower part of the atmosphere or on the earth's surface.

Thus a person in a low altitude inside a classroom will experience high pressure and a person standing on the Mount Everest will experience low pressure.

A girl playing tug-of-war with her dog pulls the dog a distance of 8.0m by exerting a force at an angle of 18° with the horizont
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

25 N

Explanation:

Work is a product of force and perpendicular distance moved.

W=Fd where F is force exerted and d is perpendicular distance.

However, for this case, the distance is inclined hence resolving it to perpendicular so that it be along x-axis we have distance as dcos\theta

Therefore, W=Fdcos\theta

Making F the subject of the formula then

F=\frac {W}{dcos\theta} where \theta is the angle of inclination. Substituting 190 J for W then 18 degrees for \theta and 8 m for d then

F=\frac {190}{8cos18^{\circ}}\approx 25N
