Answer:

21 m/s.  

Explanation:

The computation of the wind velocity is shown below:

But before that, we need to find out the angles between the vectors

53° - 35° = 18°

Now we have to sqaure it i.e given below

v^2 = 55^2 + 40^2 - 2 · 55 · 40 · cos 18°

v^2 = 3025 + 1600 - 2 · 55 · 40 · 0.951

v^2 = 440.6

v = √440.6

v = 20.99

≈ 21 m/s

Hence, The wind velocity is 21 m/s.

larisa [96]

Answer:

The ice melts mass is:

m_g=7.6x10^{-3} g

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy  

K_E = 1/2*m*v^2

K_E = 1/2*0.5kg*(3.2m/s)^2

K_E=2.56 kg*m^2/s^2

Heat gained by ice= mass(g) x 80 cal

( 1 cal = 4.184 *10^7er or g cm^2/ sec^2)

Assuming no loss in heat,  in the motion so both continue with temperature 0~C

To find so the mass (gm) of ice melted

m_g= 1/2 *(0.5*1000)*(3.2m/s)^2* 100*100 / (80*4.184*10^7)

m_g=7.6x10^{-3} g

An early method of measuring the speed of light makes use of a rotating slotted wheel. A beam of light passes through one of the
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

4.7 x 10³ rad / s

Explanation:

During the time light goes and comes back , one slot is replaced by next slot while rotating  before the light source

Time taken by light to travel a distance of 2 x 500 m is

= (2 x 500) / 3 x 10⁸

= 3.333 x 10⁻⁶ s .

In this time period, two consecutive slots come before the source of light one after another by rotation. There are 400 slots so time taken to make one rotation

= 3.333 x 10⁻⁶ x 400

= 13.33 x 10⁻⁴ s

This is the time period so

T = 13.33 X 10⁻⁴

Angular speed

= 2π / T

= \frac{2\times3.14}{13.33\times10^{-4}}

4.7 x 10³ rad / s
