Let's be clear: The plane's "395 km/hr" is speed relative to the
air, and the wind's "55 km/hr" is speed relative to the ground.
Before the wind hits, the plane moves east at 395 km/hr relative
to both the air AND the ground.
After the wind hits, the plane still maintains the same air-speed.
That is, its velocity relative to the air is still 395 km/hr east.
But the wind vector is added to the air-speed vector, and the
plane's velocity <span>relative to the ground drops to 340 km/hr east</span>.
Letter B
without a medium, there is nothing to compress, hence, no wave. A fast- medium like a gas (air) is easy to compress and allows waves to move through it easily. a slow medium, like a liquid, is still pretty fast, but not as fast as air.
true
Explanation:
this is because melting point and boiling point decreases down the group because they are held together by attractions between positive nuclei and delocalised electrons
If the distance between two charges is halved, the electrical force between them increases by a factor 4.
In fact, the magnitude of the electric force between two charges is given by:
where
k is the Coulomb's constant
q1 and q2 are the two charges
r is the separation between the two charges
We see that the magnitude of the force F is inversely proportional to the square of the distance r. Therefore, if the radius is halved:
the magnitude of the force changes as follows:
so, the force increases by a factor 4.
Nuclear fusion reactions convert protons into helium; thus, becoming the source of all energy radiated by the sun.
Answer: Option D
<u>Explanation:</u>
Nuclear fusion reaction is one among the two nuclear reactions in which the atoms nucleus interact with each other to produce the products. In nuclear fusion, two smaller atoms react together to form a new atom with bigger size.
So large amount of energy is required to start the nuclear fusion reaction. The fusion reactions mostly occurs in stars. The illumination in Stars even the Sun is due to nuclear fusion reaction occurring with the atoms present in them.
Mostly the energy radiated by Sun is due to the protons-protons chain reaction. In this chain reaction, the protons get converted into helium due to nuclear fusion reaction, thus becoming the source of all energy radiated by the Sun.
