In which city did the wright brothers take off on their very first flight
Nezavi [6.7K]
<h2>Answer: Kitty Hawk, North Carolina </h2>

The Wright brothers, Wilbur and Orville, were pioneers of aviation, since they flew in a device heavier than air, which was inconceivable at that time.

Their first successful flight was on December 17th, 1903 in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, which lasted only 12 seconds in which their plane (the Flyer I, with 341 kg, 6.4 m long and a wingspan of 12.3 m) traveled 37 m without touching the ground. This was achieved through the help of an external catapult that "threw" them into the air.

It should be noted that the Wright brothers only studied until high school, however, their passion for solving the problem of the human inability to fly, their perseverance and experience acquired over the years in their bicycle company, led them to reach that goal. An achievement that marked the beginning of the  aviation era.

Why does the entropy of a gas increase when it expands into a vacuum? Why does the entropy of a gas increase when it expands int
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

The entropy of a gas increases when it expands into a vacuum because the number of possible states increases .

Explanation:

When a gas expand in a vacuum, the molecules of the gases vibrates very fast and starting moving with higher velocity in random directions which means the level of disorder in the gases increases.

Now the possible state of the gas molecule increases such as the particle can be located at different position due to increased randomness.

<u>Entropy is the measure of this randomness and thus with this increased randomness entropy also increases.</u>

A swimmer, capable of swimming at a speed of 1.0 m/s in still water (i.e., the swimmer can swim with a speed of 1.0 m/s relative
Vesnalui [34]
If the current takes him downstream we must find the resultant vector of the velocities: V res= \sqrt{1^{2}+0.91^{2}  } = \sqrt{1.8281}= 1.3520747 Then if the river is 3000 m-wide the swimmer will have to pass:
 1.3520747 · 300 = 4056.14 m                t = 4056.14 m : 1 m/s
a ) It takes 4056.15 seconds ( 1 hour 7 minutes and 36 seconds ) to cross the river.  
b ) 0.91 · 3000 = 2730 m
He will be 2730 m downstream.

A 3.20 kg block starts at rest and slides a distance d down a frictionless β = 30.0 ◦ incline, where it runs into a spring with
Virty [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) work done by gravitational force

= mg sinθ ( d + .21)

Potential energy stored in compressed spring

= 1/2 k x²

= .5 x 431 x ( .21 )²

= 9.5

According to conservation of energy

mg sinθ ( d + .21)  = 9.5

3.2 x 9.8 x sin 30( d + .21 ) = 9.5

d = 40 cm

b )

As long as mg sin30 is greater than kx ( restoring force ) , there will be acceleration in the block.

mg sin30 = kx

3.2 x 9.8 x .5 = 431 x

x =  3.63 cm

When there is compression of 3.63 cm in the spring , block will have maximum velocity. there after its speed will start decreasing.
