Answer:

The resultant velocity of the airplane is 104.4 m/s.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Velocity of airplane, v_1=100\ m/s (due north)

Velocity of wind, v_2=30\ m/s (east to the west)

We need to find the resultant velocity of the airplane. The resultant velocity is given by :

v=\sqrt{v_1^2+v_2^2}

v=\sqrt{(100)^2+(30)^2}

v = 104.4 m/s

So, the resultant velocity of the airplane is 104.4 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Vf=√30²+100²
Vf=104 m/s

|Ф|=tan inverse of |100÷30|
Ф= 73 degrees

Therefore the resulting velocity of the airplaine is 104 m/s [ 73 degrees N of W]

A helium nucleus contains two protons and two neutrons. The mass of the helium nucleus is greater than the combined masses of tw
dsp73

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Actually, the converse is true. The mass number would be lower than the sum of the mass of the individual nucleons combined. According to Einstein’s equation of E=MC², this will be due to a phenomenon called mass defect. This ‘anomaly’ is due to the loss of some energy (now the nuclear binding energy) when the nucleons were brought in together to form the nucleus.

Does every light source emit only one type of light?
blsea [12.9K]

Yes it is possible. Spectrum of emitted light depends upon the chemical composition of the source. and the way of its excitation. a clear example to us is that of sun.

What must be true about two objects if heat is flowing between them?
netineya [11]

Answer:

The objects must be different temperatures.

Explanation:

For heat to flow between two objects, heat must be flowing between them. The thermal gradient allows for the flow of heat. Heat is a form of energy that is dissipated from one place to another based on temperature difference.

Temperature is the degree of hotness or coldness of body. It is power by heat energy between two bodies.

Heat generally flows from a body at high temperature to one at low temperature. When thermal equilibrium is established and both bodies have the same temperature, heat will stop to flow.
