What is the average speed of an object with a total distance traveled of 45 meters in 50 seconds
Anettt [7]

Answer: 0.9m/s

Explanation:

Use equation for speed:

V=S/t

S-distance; S=45m

t-time; t=50 s

V=S/t

V=45m/50s

V=0.9 m/s

An airplane pilot wishes to fly due west. A wind of 80.0 km/h (about 50 mi/h) is blowing toward the south. (a) If the airspeed o
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

a) 75.5 degree relative to the North in north-west direction

b) 309.84 km/h

Explanation:

a)If the pilot wants to fly due west while there's wind of 80km/h due south. The north-component of the airplane velocity relative to the air must be equal to the wind speed to the south, 80km/h in order to counter balance it

So the pilot should head to the West-North direction at an angle of

cos(\alpha) = 80/320 = 0.25

\alpha = cos^{-1}(0.25) = 1.32 rad = 180\frac{1.32}{\pi} = 75.5^0 relative to the North-bound.

b) As the North component of the airplane velocity cancel out the wind south-bound speed. The speed of the plane over the ground would be the West component of the airplane velocity, which is

320sin(\alpha) = 320sin(75.5^0) = 309.84 km/h

Twin A makes a one way trip at 0.6c to a star 12 light years away while twin B stays on Earth. Each twin sends the other a signa
hram777 [196]

Answer:

8 signals received by twin A during the trip.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance = 12 light year

Speed = 0.6 c

Time = 1 year

We need to calculate the time by A

Using formula of time

T=t\sqrt{\dfrac{1+\dfrac{v}{c}}{1-\dfrac{v}{c}}}

Put the value into the formula

T=1\sqrt{\dfrac{1+0.6}{1-0.6}}

T=2\ years

Similarly,

The expression for distance cover by A

D=d\sqrt{1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2}}

D=12\sqrt{1-(0.6)^2}

D=9.6\ ly

We need to calculate the time

Using formula of time

t=\dfrac{D}{v}

t=\dfrac{9.6}{0.6}

t=16\ years

We need to calculate the signals received by twin A

Using formula for number of signals

n=\dfrac{t}{T}

Put the value into the formula

n=\dfrac{16}{2}

n=8\ signals

Hence, 8 signals received by twin A during the trip.
