Answer:

package will strike at a distance of 244.7  m

Explanation:

Given data;

Velocity of plane 45 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity 9.8 m/s^2

horizontal component of plane velocity is ux = 45 m/s

vertical component is zero

in the same way

ay = - 9.8  m/s^2

ax = .0 m/s^2

motion in y direction = -145 m

from equation of motion time of flight is

s = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2

-145 = 0 + \frac{1}{2} (-9.8) t^2

solving for t  we get

t = 5.439 sec

Motion in x direction

s =  ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2

= (45 \times 5.43) + \frac{1}{2} (0) 5.43^2

s = 244.79 m

Therefore package will strike at a distance of 244.7  m

To what temperature must you raise a silver wire (c = 0.0038), originally at 20.0°C, to double its resistance, neglecting any ch
balu736 [363]

Answer:

T=283^{\circ}C

Explanation:

Given a material with temperature coefficient of resistance <em>c</em>, the equation that relates the resistance R_0 at temperature T_0 and the resistance R at temperature T is

\frac{R-R_0}{R_0}=c(T-T_0)

We want to double our resistance, so R=2R_0, thus having:

\frac{2R_0-R_0}{R_0}=\frac{R_0}{R_0}=1=c(T-T_0)

For this T must be:

1=cT-cT_0

T=\frac{1+cT_0}{c}

which for our values means (with T=20^{\circ}C=293^{\circ}K, remember to write temperature in S.I., and that for silver c=0.0038^{\circ}K^{-1}):

T=\frac{1+(0.0038^{\circ}K^{-1})(293^{\circ}K)}{(0.0038^{\circ}K^{-1})}=556^{\circ}K=283^{\circ}C

If the potential due to a point charge is 490 V at a distance of 10 m, what are the sign and magnitude of the charge?
uysha [10]

Answer:

+5.4×10⁻⁷ C

Explanation:

Electric potential: This can be defined as the work done in bringing a unit charge from infinity to that point against the action of the field. The S.I unit of potential is volt (V)

The formula for potential is

V = kq/r............................ Equation 1

Where V = electric potential, k = proportionality constant, q = charge, r = distance.

making q the subject of the equation,

q = Vr/k............................ Equation 2

Given: V = 490 V, r = 10 m,

Constant: k = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Substitute into equation 2

q = 490(10)/(9×10⁹)

q = 5.4×10⁻⁷ C

q = +5.4×10⁻⁷ C

Hence the charge is +5.4×10⁻⁷ C

Why are different constellations<br> of stars seen during different<br> seasons?
slamgirl [31]
Actually, they're not.  There's a group of stars and constellations arranged
around the pole of the sky that's visible at any time of any dark, clear night,
all year around.  And any star or constellation in the rest of the sky is visible
for roughly 11 out of every 12 months ... at SOME time of the night. 

Constellations appear to change drastically from one season to the next,
and even from one month to the next, only if you do your stargazing around
the same time every night.

Why does the night sky change at various times of the year ?  Here's how to
think about it:

The Earth spins once a day. You spin along with the Earth, and your clock is
built to follow the sun . "Noon" is the time when the sun is directly over your
head, and "Midnight" is the time when the sun is directly beneath your feet.

Let's say that you go out and look at the stars tonight at midnight, when you're
facing directly away from the sun.

In 6 months from now, when you and the Earth are halfway around on the other
side of the sun, where are those same stars ?  Now they're straight in the
direction of the sun.  So they're directly overhead at Noon, not at Midnight.

THAT's why stars and constellations appear to be in a different part of the sky,
at the same time of night on different dates.
