An airplane pilot wishes to fly directly westward. According to the weather bureau, a wind of 75.0km/hour is blowing southward.

The speed of the plane relative to the air (called the air speed) as measured by instruments aboard the plane is 310km/hour . In which direction should the pilot head?
1. The wind is blowing southward at 75.0km/hour . In what frame of reference is this speed measured?

a. The speed is measured relative to the plane.
b. The speed is measured relative to the air.
c. The speed is measured relative to the ground.

2. An airplane pilot wishes to fly directly westward. According to the weather bureau, a wind of 75.0km/hour is blowing southward. The speed of the plane relative to the air (called the air speed) as measured by instruments aboard the plane is 310km/hour . In which direction should the pilot head?

3. In this particular problem, you can compare the speed of the plane relative to the ground (the ground speed) to known quantities to evaluate the reasonableness of your answer. Find the ground speed of the plane, vP/G.

Answer:

a)  correct answer is C , b) 14º  from the west to the north, c)   v_{1g} = 300.79 km / h

Explanation:

This is a relative speed exercise using the addition of speeds.

1) when it is not specified regarding what is being measured, the medicine is carried out with respect to the Z Earth, therefore the correct answer is C

2 and 3) In this case we must compose the speed using the Pythagorean Theorem.

     v_{1a}² = v_{1g}² + v_{ag}²

where v_{1a} is the speed of the airplane with respect to the air, v_{1g} airplane speed with respect to the Earth, v_{ag} air speed with respect to the Earth

in this case let's clear the speed of the airplane with respect to the Earth

  v_{1g} = √(v_{1a}² - v_{ag}²)

 v_{1g} = √ (310² - 75²)

 v_{1g} = 300.79 km / h

we find the direction of the airplane using trigonometry

   sin θ = v_{ag} / v_{1a}

   θ = sin⁻¹ (v_{ag} /v_{1a})

   θ = sin⁻¹ (75/310)

   θ= 14º

the pilot must direct the aircraft at an angle of 14º from the west to the north

Question 30
stellarik [79]

Answer: 0.69\°

Explanation:

The angular diameter \delta of a spherical object is given by the following formula:

\delta=2 sin^{-1}(\frac{d}{2D})

Where:

d=16 m is the actual diameter

D=1338 m is the distance to the spherical object

Hence:

\delta=2 sin^{-1}(\frac{16 m}{2(1338 m)})

\delta=0.685\° \approx 0.69\° This is the angular diameter

GIVING BRAINLIEST FIVE STARS AND 25 POINTS!
Ne4ueva [31]

Engines can overheat for many reasons. In general, it's because something's wrong within the cooling system and heat isn't able to escape the engine compartment. The source of the issue could include a cooling system leak, faulty radiator fan, broken water pump, or clogged coolant hose.

Hope it helps! Have a nice day or night!

I have a voltage source of 12V but a light that only burns at 5V. The lamp works on 18 mA. Calculate the resistance that you EXT
ratelena [41]

Answer:

The resistance that will provide this potential drop is 388.89 ohms.

Explanation:

Given;

Voltage source, E = 12 V

Voltage rating of the lamp, V = 5 V

Current through the lamp, I = 18 mA

Extra voltage or potential drop, IR =  E- V  

                                                    IR = 12 V - 5 V = 7 V

The resistance that will provide this potential drop (7 V) is calculated as follows:

IR = V

R = \frac{V}{I} = \frac{7 \ V}{18 \times 10^{-3} A} \ = 388.89 \ ohms

Therefore, the resistance that will provide this potential drop is 388.89 ohms.

Potential difference of a battery is 2.2 V when it is connected
Alchen [17]

Answer:

1.1ohms

Explanation:

According to ohms law E = IR

If potential difference of a battery is 2.2 V when it is connected across a resistance of 5 ohm and if suddenly the voltage Falls to 1.8V then the current in the 5ohms resistor I = V/R = 1.8/5

I = 0.36A (This will be the load current).

Before we can calculate the value of the internal resistance, we need to know the voltage drop across the internal resistance.

Voltage drop = 2.2V - 1.8V = 0.4V

Then we calculate the internal resistance using ohms law.

According to the law, V = Ir

V= voltage drop

I is the load current

r = internal resistance

0.4 = 0.36r

r = 0.4/0.36

r = 1.1 ohms
