3. An airplane is heading north with an airspeed of 325 m/s with a wind from the east at 55.0 m/s. What is the airplane's veloci

liraira [26]

Let <em>a</em> denote the airplane's velocity in the air, <em>g</em> its velocity on the ground, and <em>w</em> the velocity of the wind. (Note that these are vectors.) Then

<em>a</em> = <em>g</em> + <em>w</em>

and we're given

<em>a</em> = (325 m/s) <em>j</em>

<em>w</em> = (55.0 m/s) <em>i</em>

Then

<em>g</em> = - (55.0 m/s) <em>i</em> + (325 m/s) <em>j</em>

The ground speed is the magnitude of this vector:

||<em>g</em>|| = √[ (-55.0 m/s)² + (325 m/s)² ] ≈ 330. m/s

which is faster than the air speed, which is ||<em>a</em>|| = 325 m/s.

Assuming the average rate of heat energy flowing outwards from earth to be 0.063 W/m2 calculate the energy available at a hot sp

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

"13.48 Kwhr" is the right solution.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Average rate of heat energy,

= 0.063 W/m²

Diameter,

= 8m

Efficiency of conversion,

= 50%

Now,

The area of hotspot will be:

⇒ $A=\frac{\pi}{4} d^2$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $=\frac{3.14}{4} (8)^2$

⇒ $=0.785\times 64$

⇒ $=50.24 \ m^2$

Total heat generation rate will be:

⇒ $Q=q\times A$

$=0.063\times 50.24$

$=3.16 \ W$

hence,

The electricity generation capacity will be:

⇒ $P=\eta Q t$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $=0.5\times 3.16\times 8760$

⇒ $=13840.8 \ Whr$

On converting into Kwhr, we get

⇒ $=13.84 \ Kwhr$

if you were to increase either mass or speed by a unit of 1 in a joules calculation, which would give you more energy?

musickatia [10]

Answer:increasing any of them, either mass or speed by 1unit will cause an increase in energy,

Explanation:

By increasing any of them, either mass or speed will cause an increase in energy.

Because kinetic energy is proportional to mass and also directly proportional to velocity

Buffalo, New York, and Raleigh, NC, lie approximately on the same meridian. Buffalo has a latitude of 42.9° N, and Raleigh has a

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Distance will be $=3960\times 0.12385=490.468miles$

Explanation:

We have given that Buffalo has a latitude of 42.9°N

And Raleigh has a latitude of 35.8°N

Radius of the earth = 3960 miles

We have to calculate the distance between given two cities

Difference in their latitudes = $42.9-35.8=7.1^{\circ}$

Now changing the angle in radian = $7.1\times\frac{\pi }{180}=0.12385radian$

So distance will be $=3960\times 0.12385=490.468miles$
