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.

Is it proper to use an infinitely long cylinder model when finding the temperatures near the bottom or top surfaces of a cylinde
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

No, it is not proper to use an infinitely long cylinder model when finding the temperatures near the bottom or top surfaces of a cylinder.

Explanation:

A cylinder is said to be infinitely long when is of a sufficient length. Also, when the diameter of the cylinder is relatively small compared to the length, it is called infinitely long cylinder.

Cylindrical rods can also be treated as infinitely long when dealing with heat transfers at locations far from the top or bottom surfaces. However, it not proper to treat the cylinder as being infinitely long when:

* When the diameter and length are comparable (i.e have the same measurement)

When finding the temperatures near the bottom or top of a cylinder, it is NOT PROPER TO USE AN INFINITELY LONG CYLINDER because heat transfer at those locations can be two-dimensional.

Therefore, the answer to the question is NO, since it is not proper to use an infinitely long cylinder when finding temperatures near the bottom or top of a cylinder.

G a person of mass 100 kg is riding an elevator which was initially moving up with a velocity of 3 m/s. over a distance of 4 m t

E=mc² where c is speed of the light
3 m/s more andmore less than speed of the light. So mass of the person still 100 kg
