Answer:

2.68 hours

Explanation:

A.) Suppose the wind blows out from the west (with the air moving east). The pilot should then head her plane to northwest direction to move directly north.

B.) Given that plane flies at a speed of 102 km/h in still air. And the wind blows out from the west (with the air moving east) at a speed of 46 km/h.

The plan resultant speed can be calculated by using pythagorean theorem.

Resultant Speed = Sqrt( 102^2 + 46^2 )

Resultant Speed = Sqrt( 12520)

Resultant speed = 111.89 km/h

From the definition of speed,

Speed = distance/time

Where distance = 300 km

Substitute the resultant speed and the distance into the formula.

111.89 = 300/time

Time = 300/111.89

Time = 2.68 hours

Therefore, it take her 2.68 hours to reach a point 300 km directly north of her srarting point

if the Horse and Rider have a combined mass of 572 kg what force would be required to accelerate them 5 kph per second
Vlad [161]

Answer:

   Force required to accelerate = 794.44 N

Explanation:

 Force required = Mass of horse x Acceleration of horse

 Mass of horse and rider, m=   572 kg

 Acceleration of horse and rider, a = 5 kph per second

                                      =\frac{5*1000}{60*60} =1.39 m/s^2

  Force required = ma

                             = 572 x 1.39 = 794.44 N

  Force required to accelerate = 794.44 N

Can anyone help me? (physics)
Masja [62]

Answer:

The initial velocity of the golf is 15.7 m/s.

The direction of the golf is 57°.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Time of flight (T) = 2.7 secs

Range (R) = 23 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Initial velocity (u) =.?

Direction (θ) =.?

T = 2U Sine θ /g

2.7 = 2 × U × Sine θ /9.8

Cross multiply

2.7 × 9.8 = 2 × U × Sine θ

26.46 = 2 × U × Sine θ

Divide both side by 2 × Sine θ

U = 26.46 /2 Sine θ

U = 13.23 / Sine θ ... (1)

R = U² Sine 2θ /g

23 = U² Sine 2θ / 9.8

U = 13.23 / Sine θ

23 = (13.23/ Sine θ)² Sine 2θ / 9.8

23 = (175.0329 / Sine² θ) × Sine 2θ / 9.8

23 = 17.8605/Sine² θ × Sine 2θ

Recall:

Sine 2θ = 2SineθCosθ

23 = 17.8605/ Sine² θ × 2SineθCosθ

23 = 17.8605/ Sine θ × 2Cosθ

23 = 35.721 Cos θ /Sine θ

Cross multiply

23 × Sine θ = 35.721 Cos θ

Divide both side by 23

Sine θ = 35.721 Cos θ /23

Sine θ = 1.5531 × Cos θ

Divide both side by Cos θ

Sine θ /Cos θ = 1.5531

Recall:

Sine θ /Cos θ = Tan θ

Sine θ /Cos θ = 1.5531

Tan θ = 1.5531

Take the inverse of Tan

θ = Tan¯¹ (1.5531)

θ = 57°

Therefore, the direction of the golf is 57°

Thus, the initial velocity can be obtained as follow:

U = 13.23 / Sine θ

θ = 57°

U = 13.23 / Sine 57

U = 13.23/0.8387

U = 15.7 m/s

Therefore, the initial velocity of the golf is 15.7 m/s

How do I find frictional force with force applied?
lions [1.4K]

Answer: Choose the normal force acting between the object and the ground. Let's assume a normal force of 250 N.

Determine the friction coefficient.

Multiply these values by each other: 250 N * 0.13 = 32.5 N .

You just found the force of friction!
