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.

how long does it take a 750watt heater operating at full rating to rais the temperature of 1kg of water From 40°C to 70°C {S.H.C
siniylev [52]

Answer:

168 seconds (2 min 48 s)

Explanation:

Find the heat absorbed by the water.

q = mCΔT

q = (1 kg) (4200 J/kg/K) (70°C − 40°C)

q = 126,000 J

Power is energy per time.

P = q / t

750 W = 126,000 J / t

t = 168 s

It takes 168 seconds (2 min 48 s).
