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.

Charlie pulls horizontally to the right on a wagon with a force of 37.2 N. Sara pulls horizontally to the left with a force of 2
Sidana [21]

Answer:

The work done on the wagon is 37 joules.

Explanation:

Given that,

The force applied by Charlie to the right, F = 37.2 N

The force applied by Sara to the left, F' = 22.4 N

We need to find the work done on the wagon after it has moved 2.50 meters to the right. The net force acting on the wagon is :

F_n=F-F'

F_n=37.2-22.4

F_n=14.8\ N

Work done on the wagon is given by the product of net force and displacement. It is given by :

W=F_n\times d

W=14.8\ N\times 2.5\ m

W = 37 Joules

So, the work done on the wagon is 37 joules. Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the angular speed of (a) the second hand, (b) the minute hand, and (c) the hour hand of a smoothly running analog watch?
Agata [3.3K]
A)We know the formula of the angular speed is                 ω = 2π / TWhere T is the time period.When second hand completes one revolution then the time taken is 60s.So T = 60sThen the angular speed of the second hand is          ω= 2π / (60s)             = 0.1047 rad/sb)When the minute hand completes one revolution the time taken is             T = 1 hr                = 3600sThen the angular speed of the minute hand is         ω =(2π) / (3600s) = 0.001745 rad/sc)When the hour hand completes one revolution then the timeperiod is          T = 12hrs             = (12)(3600)sThen the angular speed of the hour hand is         ω =(2π) / [(12)(3600)s] = 1.45444 x 10^-4 rad/s

How does an ocean wave transfer energy across the ocean?
Alborosie
The energy travels in a disturbance, in an ocean that disturbance is a wave, so the wave makes energy and moves it through the water

I believe the answer to be B

Explanation:

If you were playing on grass, the ball would be able to roll around much easier rather than it to be on sand. If it's wrong I am so sorry
