If it is a headwind it means it's travelling against the motion of the plane. This means it's velocity is simply v=720-16=704 km/h due east.

Answer:

The resultant velocity and direction of the plane with respect to the ground is 704 km/h due east.

Explanation:

Given that,

Air velocity v₁= 720 km/h

Headwind v₂ = 16 km/h

The air velocity due to east is greater then the head wind.

So, the direction of the velocity respect to the ground will be due to east.

The velocity of plane respect to ground

The resultant velocity will be

v= v_{1}-v_{2}

v = 720-16

v = 704\ km/h

Hence, The resultant velocity and direction of the plane with respect to the ground is 704 km/h due east.

What is the separation distance, in meters, between masses m1 = 15 x 107 kg and m2 = 62 x 107 kg when the gravitational force be
nalin [4]

Answer:

94.1 m

Explanation:

From Coulombs law,

F  = Gm1m2/r²................... Equation 1

where F = force, m1 = first mass, m2 = second mass, G = universal constant, r = distance of separation.

Make r the subject of the equation,

r = √(Gm1m2/F)................. Equation 2

Given: F = 7×10² N, m1 = 15×10⁷ kg, m2 = 62×10⁷ kg,

Constant: G = 6.67×10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

Substitute into equation 2

r = √( 6.67×10⁻¹¹×15×10⁷×62×10⁷/7×10²)

r √(886.16×10)

r √(88.616×10²)

r = 9.41×10

r = 94.1 m.

Hence the distance of separation = 94.1 m
