An airplane cruises at 850 km/h relative to the air. It is flying from Denver, Colorado, due west to Reno, Nevada, a distance of

1200 km, and will then return. There is a steady 90km/h wind blowing to the east.

Answer:

difference in flight time= 0.3023 hour

Explanation:

The question is incomplete, but I found it in your textbook.

Spped of aircraft = 850 km/h

Opposing speed of wind = 90km/h

Hence, the net speed when it's travelling west = 850 - 90 = 760 km/hr

The distance covered = 1200km

time taken = distance/ time = 1200/ 760 = 1.5789 hours

When coming back, the speed of the wind is complementary to the speed of the aircraft so

net speed when it's coming back = 850 +90 = 940 km/hr

time taken in this instance = 1200/ 940 = 1.2765 hours

Hence, the difference in flight time= 1.5789 - 1.2765 = 0.3023 hour

when energy is transferred from one part of a system to another, some of the energy is lost during the transfer and cannot be us
AlladinOne [14]

Sentences A and D describe examples of energy transformation.Heat is produced when a car's tires rub against the pavement and as electricity passes across power wires, they become hotter.

<h3>What is the law of conservation of energy?</h3>

According to the law of conservation of energy, the energy of an isolated system stays unchanged throughout time.it is said to be conserved.

Energy cannot be created nor destroyed and can be transferred from one form to the other form.

The complete question is

"When energy is moved from one component of a system to another, some of the energy is lost and cannot be used as planned.

Which two statements provide examples?

A. Friction between a car's tires and the road produces heat.

B. Sunlight strikes a solar panel, generating electricity.

c. Stereo speakers emit a sound when powered by electrical energy,

D. Wind moves a turbine, generating electricity.

I E. Power lines heat up as electricity flows through them."

Some of the energy wasted during the movement of energy from one section of a system to another is heat is produced by friction between a car's tires and the road and as electricity passes via power lines, they heat up.

Hence, sentences A and D describe examples of energy transformation.
