Answer:v=142.85 mph

Explanation:

Given

Distance between two cities is 1000 miles

Speed of plane 1 id 250 mph

Plane 1 leaves at 7 am and Plane 2 leaves at 7:30 am

They will collide if plane 2 travels 300 miles and Plane  1 travels 400 miles in t and t+0.5 hr  respectively

Time taken by plane 2

t=\frac{300}{v}----1

time taken by plane  1 to travel 400 miles

t+0.5=\frac{400}{250}-----2

substitute value of t in 2

\frac{300}{v}+0.5=\frac{400}{250}

\frac{300}{v}=2.1

v=\frac{300}{2.1}=142.85 mph

Which of the following is true about a planet orbiting a star in uniform circular
Mnenie [13.5K]

The velocity vector of the planet points toward the center of the  circle is the following is true about a planet orbiting a star in uniform circular  motion.

A. The velocity vector of the planet points toward the center of the  circle.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Motion of the planet around the star is mentioned to be uniform and around a circular path. Objects in uniform circular motion motion has constant angular speed but the velocity of the object will not remain constant. Since the planet is in circular motion the direction of velocity vector at a particular point is tangential to the circular path at that particular point.

Thus at every point, the direction of velocity vector changes and this means the velocity is never constant. The objects in uniform circular motion has centripetal acceleration which means that velocity vector of the planet points toward the center of the  circle.

Calculate the net force and the acceleration on the block
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Net Force = 10N

Acceleration = 2m/s^2

Explanation:

calculate the net force and the acceleration on the block

Net force on the block F = mass * acceleration

Net force acting in the positive direction = 4N + 6N = 10N

Mass = 5kg

According to newton's second law;

a = F/m

a = 10N/5

a = 2m/s^2

hence the acceleration on the block is 2m/s^2
