A bird is about 6.26.2 in.​ long, with a​ thin, dark bill and a​ wide, white wing stripe. If the bird can fly 9292 mi with the w

ind in the same time it can fly 6060 mi against the wind when the wind speed is 44 ​mph, what is the rate of the bird in still​ air?

Answer:

209 mph

Explanation:

V = Speed of bird in still air

v = Speed of wind = 44 mph

Consider the motion of the bird with the wind

D_{1} = distance traveled with the wind = 9292 mi

t_{1} = time taken to travel the distance with wind

Time taken to travel the distance with wind is given as

t_{1} = \frac{D_{1}}{V + v}

t_{1} = \frac{9292}{V + 44}                              eq-1

Consider the motion of the bird with the wind

D_{2} = distance traveled against the wind = 6060 mi

t_{2} = time taken to travel the distance against wind

Time taken to travel the distance against wind is given as

t_{2} = \frac{D_{2}}{V + v}

t_{2} = \frac{6060}{V - 44}                              eq-2

As per the question,

Time taken with the wind = Time taken against the wind

t_{1} = t_{2}

\frac{9292}{V + 44} = \frac{6060}{V - 44}

(9292) (V - 44) = (6060) (V + 44)

9292V - 408848 = 6060V + 266640

3232V = 675488

V = 209 mph

Put these components from largest to smallest
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

6, 3, 2, 5, 4, 1

Explanation:

Let's describe them from smallest to largest. In fact the size order is not exact as there are exceptions.

An asteroid is a rocky body which lies in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. They are typically quite small object. The largest asteroid Ceres has been reclassified as a dwarf planet.

A moon is typically a rocky body which is in orbit around a planet. Some moons such as our Moon are quite large and are typically bigger than asteroid. Some moons can actually be smaller than some asteroids.

A planet is a nearly spherical body which is in orbit around the Sun. Planets are larger than moons.

A star is what planets orbit around. It is the source of light and heat. Our Sun is a star which is many times bigger than all of the planets.

A solar system is a star and all of its planets, asteroids, comets and other bodies. It is significantly bigger than a star.

A galaxy, such as our Milky Way Galaxy, is a collection of solar systems orbiting around a central core. Most galaxies have a supermassive black hole at their centres.

Galaxies also form clusters which are large scale structures.

The universe is everything. It contains billions of galaxies.

A racing car’s velocity is increased from 44 m/s to 66 m/s in 11 seconds. What is the acceleration? and what is the displacement
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity per unit of time

Acceleration (a) = ΔV/t

V = Velocity      t = time

ΔV = V₂ - V₁      t = 11s

V₁ = 44m/s

V₂ = 66m/s

ΔV = 66 - 44

     = 22m/s

Acceleration (a) = 22/11

                          = 2m/s²

Displacement (d): Displacement equals the original velocity multiplied by time plus one half the acceleration multiplied by the square of time.

d = v₀ + 1/2*at²

v₀ = 44m/s

a = 2m/s

t = 11s

d = 44 + 1/2*(2 x 11²)

  = 44 + 121

d = 165m

A block is pushed so that it moves up a ramp at constant speed. Identify from choices (a)-(e) below the appropriate description
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

*The work of the Normal (N) y Wy are zero  answer a

*The work of the applied force (F1)  is positive answer c

*The work of the friction force (fr) is negative, answer b

*The work of the Wy isnegative, answer d

Explanation:

In this exercise it is asked to identify the type of work, unfortunately the diagram cannot be seen, but in the attached we can see the diagram of a body moving upward on an inclined plane, the existing forces are shown.

As the body moves at constant speed the accelerations are zero. Let's look for the job that is defined

           W = F. d

            W = F d cos θ

where the dot represents the dot product and the bold letters are vectors.

* The work of the Normal (N) and the y component of the weight (Wy) are zero because they are perpendicular to the motion

    answer a

* The work of the applied force (F1) is positive because it is in the same direction of motion

        W = F1 Δx

answer c

* The work of the friction force (fr) is negative because the force in the displacement have opposite directions

        W = -fr Δx

answer b

* the work the x component of the weight (Wx) in this case is negative

answer d
