Answer:
70.5 mph
Explanation:
A passenger jet travels from Los Angeles to Bombay, India, in 22h.
The return flight takes 17 h.
The difference in flight times is caused by winds over the Pacific Ocean that
blow primarily from west to east.
If the jet's average speed in still air is 550 mi/h what is the average speed
of the wind during the round trip flight? Round to the nearest mile per hour.
Is your answer reasonable?
:
Let w = speed of the wind
:
Write a distance equation (dist is the same both ways
17(550+w) = 22(550-w)
9350 + 17w = 12100 - 22w
17w + 22w = 12100 - 9350
39w = 2750
W = 2750/39
w = 70.5 mph seems very reasonable
:
Confirming if the solution by finding the distances using these value
17(550+70.5) = 10549 mi
22(550-70.5) = 10549 mi; confirms our solution of w = 70.5 mph
Answer:
49 N
Explanation:
In order to move the box at constant speed, the acceleration of the box must be zero (a=0): this means, according to Newton's second law,
F = ma
that the net force acting on the box, F, must be zero as well.
Here there are two forces acting on the box in the horizontal direction while it is moving:
- The force of push applied by the guy, F
- The frictional force,
For an object moving on a flat surface, the frictional force is given by
where
is the coefficient of friction
m is the mass of the box
g is the acceleration of gravity
So the equation of the forces becomes
And substituting:
We find the force that must be applied by the guy:
Answer:
Amy's speed is 2/3 faster than Bill's
Explanation:
can't believe you don't know how to do this.
So v=d/s so the answer is 6/3.2 so the answer is 1.87m/s
Hopefully I’m not late and I apologize if I am, but the answer to your question would be 95.6 km/hr. You know you can look up your question as well to see if they already have a answer to that so you won’t waste your points.
