A plane flies 1800 miles in 9 ​hours, with a tailwind all the way. the return trip on the same​ route, now with a​ headwind, tak

es 12 hours. assuming both remain​ constant, find the speed of the plane and the speed of the wind.​ [hint: if x is the​ plane's speed and y the wind speed​ (in mph), then the plane travels to its destination at xplusy mph because the plane and the wind go in the same​ direction; on the return​ trip, the plane travels at xminusy ​mph.]

Initially its moving with tail wind so here the speed of wind will support the motion of the plane

so we can say

V_{plane} + v_{wind} = \frac{distance}{time}

V_{plane} + v_{wind} = \frac{1800}{9}

V_{plane} + v_{wind} = 200 mph

now when its moving with head wind we can say that wind is opposite to the motion of the plane

V_{plane} - v_{wind} = \frac{distance}{time}

V_{plane} - v_{wind} = \frac{1800}{12}

V_{plane} - v_{wind} = 150mph

now by using above two equations we can find speed of palne as well as speed of wind

V_{plane} = 175 mph

v_{wind} = 25 mph

which of the four forces makes paint cling to a wall ?which force makes adhesive sticky?which force makes wax to stick a car ?
True [87]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

The question is incomplete because of the absence of options.

However, <u>the force that makes a paint cling to a wall is adhesive force</u>. Adhesive force is the force between two unlike substances like a liquid clinging to a solid surface.

The force between adhesives or glue is also the force that makes them sticky. <u>This force is referred to as cohesive force</u>. This is a force found in between similar molecules (unlike adhesive force found between dissimilar molecules).

<u>The force that makes wax to stick to a car is electromagnetic force</u>. This is a force between charged particles; whether they appear to be moving or not. These particles of opposite charges come together to form a neutral force. In this case, charged atoms of the car and the wax come together (which causes what we see as the wax sticking to the car).

Unlike an observational study, an experiment can prove:
Zinaida [17]

A. Cause and effect.

Explanation:

An experiment can prove cause and effect in a study unlike observational studies.

  • Observational studies is a non-experimental system of investigation.
  • It helps to identify the causes(independent variable) and the effect(dependent variables).
  • In observational studies, the variables cannot be controlled and so it is difficult to prove the cause and effect.
  • An experiment can prove cause and effect because the parameters are tested and can be controlled.
