Answer:
The pilot is 2214.22 miles from her starting position
Explanation:
Since the pilot is traveling at a constant speed of 635 mph, the total distance traveled can be easily found as follows:
There was a 10 degrees deviation, so the angle between the trajectory of both legs is 170 degrees.
The distance we need to find is that from the start of the first leg to the end of the second leg, those three distances form a triangle and since the side we're interested in is opposite to the 170 degrees angle, we can determine its length by the law of cosines:
The pilot is 2214.22 miles from her starting position
Answer:
Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces to shrink into the minimum surface area possible.
Surface tension is caused by effects of intermolecular forces at liquid interface.
Surface tension increases as intermolecular forces increases.
Explanation:
- Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces to shrink into the minimum surface area possible. It can also be seen as the energy required to increase the surface of a liquid by a unit amount.
- Surface tension is caused by the mediating effects of intermolecular forces at the liquid interfaces. Example in water, surface tension is caused by the mediating effect of the force between hydrogen and oxygen molecules. Liquids tends to reduce their surface area because of inward attarction of the liquid molecules.
- Surface tension increases as intermolecular forces increases. Also, surface tension decreases as intermolecular forces decreases.
B) gravitational to kinetic
Explanation:
The skydiver, when he is located at a certain height h above the ground, possesses gravitational potential energy, equal to:
where m is the mass of the skydiver, g is the gravitational acceleration and h is the height above the ground. As he falls, its height h decreases, while his speed v increases, so part of the gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, which is given by
so, we see that as v increases, the kinetic energy increases. Therefore the correct answer is
B) gravitational to kinetic
Answer:
0.345m
Explanation:
Let x (m) be the length that the spring is compress. If we take the point where the spring is compressed as a reference point, then the distance from that point to point where the ball is held is x + 1.1 m.
And so the potential energy of the object at the held point is:
where m = 1.3 kg is the object mass, g = 10m/s2 is the gravitational acceleration and h = x + 1.1 m is the height of the object with respect to the reference point
According to the conservation law of energy, this potential energy is converted to spring elastic energy once it's compressed
where k = 315 is the spring constant and x is the compressed length
x = 0.345 m or x = -0.263 m
Since x can only be positive we will pick the 0.345m
