Two ships leave a harbor at the same time, traveling on courses that have an angle of 110∘ between them. If the first ship trave

ls at 22 miles per hour and the second ship travels at 34 miles per hour, how far apart are the two ships after 1.2 hours?

Answer:

49.07 miles

Explanation:

Angle between two ships = 110° = θ

First ship speed = 22 mph

Second ship speed = 34 mph

Distance covered by first ship after 1.2 hours = 22×1.2 = 26.4 miles = b

Distance covered by second ship after 1.2 hours = 34×1.2 = 40.8 miles = c

Here the angle between the two sides of a triangle is 110° so from the law of cosines we get

a² = b²+c²-2bc cosθ

⇒a² = 26.4²+40.8²-2×26.4×40.8 cos110

⇒a² = 2408.4

⇒a = 49.07 miles

Answer:

10000N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the car  = 1000kg

Acceleration = 3m/s²

g  = 10m/s²

Unknown:

Weight of the car  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem we must understand that weight is the vertical gravitational force that acts on a body.

 Weight  = mass x acceleration due to gravity

So;

    Weight  = 1000 x 10  = 10000N

Compute the kinetic energy of a proton (mass 1.67×10−27kg ) using both the nonrelativistic and relativistic expressions for spee
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The non-relativistic kinetic energy of a proton is 6.76\times10^{-12}\ J

The relativistic kinetic energy of a proton is 7.25\times10^{-12}\ m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of proton m=1.67\times10^{-27}\ kg

Speed v= 9.00\times10^{7}\ m/s

We need to calculate the kinetic energy for non relativistic

Using formula of kinetic energy

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Put the value into the formula

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.67\times10^{-27}\times(9.00\times10^{7})^2

K.E=6.76\times10^{-12}\ J

We need to calculate the kinetic energy for relativistic

Using formula of kinetic energy

K.E=mc^2(\sqrt{(\dfrac{1}{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}})}-1)

K.E=1.67\times10^{-27}\times(3\times10^{8})^{2}\cdot\left(\sqrt{\frac{1}{1-\frac{\left(9.00\times10^{7}\right)^{2}}{(3\times10^{8})^{2}}}}-1\right)

K.E=7.25\times10^{-12}\ m/s

Hence, The non-relativistic kinetic energy of a proton is 6.76\times10^{-12}\ J

The relativistic kinetic energy of a proton is 7.25\times10^{-12}\ m/s

How do matter and energy interact to produce weather patterns
nadezda [96]
Weather is caused by different levels of humidity and the difference in the temperature of air which causes wind patterns. Energy from the sun evaporates the water on land. Air also heats up which brings up the water vapor to the atmosphere. This increases the humidity and the chance of rain. When hot is found near the land, this will create a high pressure which will prevent the formation of clouds and produce a fair weather.

A 60-watt light bulb has a voltage of 120 bolts applied across it and a current of 0.5 amperes flows through the bulb. What is t
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

240 ohms

Explanation:

From Ohms law we deduce that V=IR and making R the subject of the formula then R=V/I where R is resistance, I is current and V is coltage across. Substituting 120 V for V and 0.5 A for A then

R=120/0.5=240 Ohms

Alternatively, resistance is equal to voltage squared divided by watts hence \frac {120^{2}}{60}=240
