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

Answer:

41°

Explanation:

Kinetic energy at bottom = potential energy at top

½ mv² = mgh

½ v² = gh

h = v²/(2g)

h = (2.4 m/s)² / (2 × 9.8 m/s²)

h = 0.294 m

The pendulum rises to a height of  above the bottom.  To determine the angle, we need to use trigonometry (see attached diagram).

L − h = L cos θ

cos θ = (L − h) / L

cos θ = (1.2 − 0.294) / 1.2

θ = 41.0°

Rounded to two significant figures, the pendulum makes a maximum angle of 41° with the vertical.

A fire helicopter carries a 580-kg bucket of water at the end of a 20.0-m long cable. Flying back from a fire at a constant spee
inn [45]

Answer:

F = 41,954 N

Explanation:

given,

mass of bucket = 580 Kg

length of the cable = 20 m

velocity = 40 m/s

angle made = 38.0°

T cos 38° = m g..............(1)

T sin 38^0 = \dfrac{mv^2}{l} + F......(2)

dividing equation (2) by (1)

tan 38^0 = \dfrac{\dfrac{mv^2}{l} + F}{mg}

tan 38^0 = \dfrac{\dfrac{580\times 40^2}{20} + F}{580 \times 9.81}

4445.36 = \dfrac{580\times 40^2}{20} + F

F = -46400 + 4445.36

F = -41,954 N

hence, the force is acting in the opposite direction as assumed.

F = 41,954 N
