Flying against the wind, an airplane travels 2670 km in 3 hours. Flying with the wind, the same plane travels 11,070 km in 9 hou

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

speed of plane in still air = 1060 km/h

speed of wind = 170 km/h

Explanation:

Let teh speed of plane in still air is vp and the speed of air is va.

Irt travels 2670 km in 3 hours against the wind

So,

vp - va = 2670 / 3 = 890 km/h ..... (1)

It travels 11070 km in 9 hours along the wind.

vp + va = 11070 / 9 = 1230 km/h .... (2)

Adding both the equations

2 vp = 2120

vp = 1060 km/h

and va = 1230 - vp = 1230 - 1060 = 170 km/h

Two objects gravitationally attract with a force of 100 N. If the mass of one object is doubled and the mass of the other object

barxatty [35]

Hello!

Recall the equation for gravitational force:
$F_g = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}$

Fg = Force of gravity (N)
G = Gravitational constant

m1, m2 = masses of objects (kg)
r = distance between the objects' center of masses (m)

There is a DIRECT relationship between mass and gravitational force.

We are given:
$F_g = 100N$

If we were to double one mass and triple another, according to the equation:
$F'_g = \frac{G(2m_1)(3m_2)}{r^2} = 6(\frac{G(m_1)(m_2)}{r^2}) = 6F_g$

Thus:
$6 * F_g = 6 * 100 = \boxed{600N}$

astraxan [27]

Given:

Initial speed of the motorcycle (u) = 35 m/s

Final speed of the motorcycle (v) = 0 m/s (Complete Stop)

Maximum deceleration of the motorcycle (a) = -1.2 m/s²

Required Equation:

$\boxed{\bf{ v = u + at}}$

Answer:

By substituting values in the equation, we get:

$\rm \longrightarrow 0 = 35 + ( - 1.2)t \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow 0 = 35 - 1.2t \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow 35 - 1.2t = 0 \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow 35- 35 - 1.2t = 0 - 35 \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow - 1.2t = - 35 \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow \dfrac{ - 1.2t}{ - 1.2} = \dfrac{ - 35}{ - 1.2} \\ \\ \rm \longrightarrow t = 29.167 \: s$

$\therefore$ Time taken by motorcycle to come to a complete stop (t) = 29.167 s
