Instruments in an airplane which is in level flight indicate that the velocity relative to the air (airspeed) is 180.00 km/h and

the direction of the relative velocity vector (heading) is 70° east of north. Instruments on the ground indicate that the velocity of the airplane (ground speed) is 150.00 km/h and the direction of flight (course) is 60° east of north. Determine the wind speed and direction. (Round the final answer to two decimal places.)

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

The coordinate axis is situated in the east and north direction.

So, the north will be the  y-axis and the east will be the x-axis

Similarly, the velocity of the plane in regard to the air in the coordinate system will be v_{P/A} = v( cos \theta \ i + sin \theta \ j)

where:

v_{P/A} = velocity of the plane in regard to the air

v = velocity

θ =  angle of inclination of the plane with respect to the horizontal

replacing v = 180 km/ and θ = 20° in above equation, then:

The velocity of the airplane in the coordinate system as:

v_{P} = v_o( cos \phi \ i + sin \phi \ j)

where;

v_p = velocity of the airplane

v_o = velocity

∅ = angle of inclination with regard to the base axis;

Then; replacing  v_o  = 150 km/h and ∅ = 30°

Therefore, the velocity of the plane in the system is :

v_p = v_A + v_{P/A}

v_A=  v_P  -v_{P/A}   --- (1)

v_A= ( 150 cos 30° - 180 cos 20°)i + ( 150 sin 30° - 180sin 20°)j

v_A= (-39.24 km/h)i + (13.44 km/h) j

The magnitude is:

v_A= (-39.24 km/h)i + (13.44 km/h) j

|v_A|^2 = \sqrt{ (-39.24 km/h)^2+ (13.44 km/h)^2}

v_A = 41.48 km/h

The airplane is moving at an angle of the inverse tangent to the abscissa and ordinate.

The angle of motion is:

tan θ = 39.24/13.44

tan θ = 2.9

θ  = tan ^{-1} (2.9)

θ  =  70.97°

The angle of motion is  70.97° from west of north with a velocity of 41.48 km/h.

An electric flux of 147 N*m^2/C passes through a flat horizontal surface that has an area of 0.824 m^2. The flux is due to a uni
Tresset [83]

Answer:231.16 N/C

Explanation:

Given

Electric Flux=147 N-m^2/C

Area(A)=0.824 m^2

Given Field point above 31.6 ^{\circ}

Therefore angle between Area vector Electric Field =90-31.6=58.4^{\circ}

We know that Flux is given by

\phi =\vec{E}\cdot \vec{A}

\phi =EAcos\theta

147=E\times 0.824\times cos(58.4)

E=231.16 N/C

An object is hung from a spring balance attached to the ceiling of an elevator cab. The balance reads 65 N when the cab is stand
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

(A) Reading will be 65 N

(B) Net force on the elevator will be 49.076 N    

Explanation:

We have given the balance force = 65 N

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

We know that W=mg

So 65=m\times 9.8

m = 6.632 kg

(a) In first case as the as the speed is constant so the force on the elevator will be 65 N

(B) In second case as the elevator is decelerating at a rate of 2.4m/sec^2

So net acceleration = 9.8-2.4=7.4m/sec^2

So net force on elevator will be = m× net acceleration = 6.632×7.4 = 49.076 N

Since the aluminum bar is not an isolated system, the second law of thermodynamics cannot be applied to the bar alone. Rather, i
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

ΔS total ≥ 0 (ΔS total = 0 if the process is carried out reversibly in the surroundings)

Explanation:

Assuming that the entropy change in the aluminium bar is due to heat exchange with the surroundings ( the lake) , then the entropy change of the aluminium bar is, according to the second law of thermodynamics, :

ΔS al ≥ ∫dQ/T

if the heat transfer is carried out reversibly

ΔS al =∫dQ/T  

in the surroundings

ΔS surr ≥ -∫dQ/T = -ΔS al → ΔS surr ≥ -ΔS al = - (-1238 J/K) = 1238 J/K

the total entropy change will be

ΔS total = ΔS al + ΔS surr

ΔS total ≥ ΔS al + (-ΔS al) =

ΔS total ≥ 0

the total entropy change will be ΔS total = 0 if the process is carried out reversibly in the surroundings
