Suppose that the weight (in pounds) of an airplane is a linear function of the amount of fuel (in gallons) in its tank. When car

rying 18 gallons of fuel, the airplane weighs 1999 pounds. When carrying 46 gallons of fuel, it weighs 2153 pounds. How much does the airplane weigh if it is carrying 58 gallons of fuel?

Answer:

W=2219pounds

Explanation:

If the weight  is a linear function of the amount of fuel, the following correlation is fulfilled :

\frac{2153pounds-1999pounds}{46gallons-18gallons} = \frac{W-1999pounds}{58gallons-18galons}

we solve the equation:

W=2219pounds

The pressure of air pushing down on a house roof is extremely large. Why is the roof not crushed?
Degger [83]
There is still air inside of a house, which is pushing the roof upwards, so the forces are equal and the roof is not crushed.

Refraction refers to C. the bending of light rays when they pass from one medium into another

Explanation:

Refraction is a phenomenon typical of wave. Refraction occurs when a wave travels through the boundary between two different mediums. When this occurs, the wave changes speed, wavelength and direction (but the frequency remains the same).

In particular, the direction of the refracted ray is determined by Snell's Law:

n_1 sin \theta_1 = n_2 sin \theta_2

where

n_1 is the index of refraction of the 1st medium

n_2 is the index of refraction of the 2nd medium

\theta_1 is the angle of incidence, which is the angle between the direction of the incident wave and the normal to the boundary

\theta_2 is the angle of refraction, which is the angle between the direction of the refracted wave and the normal to the boundary

Therefore, the correct description of refraction is

C. the bending of light rays when they pass from one medium into another

A motorboat heads due east at 16 m/s across a river that flows due south at 9.0 m/s. a.) What is the resultant velocity of the b
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

a)V=18.35 m/s (South -East)

b) t =7.41 m/s

c)D= 66.70 m

Explanation:

Given that

Velocity of boat in east direction = 16 m/s

Velocity of river = 9 m/s

a)The resultant velocity V

V=\sqrt{16^2+9^2}\ m/s

V=18.35 m/s (South -East)

b)

We know that

Distance = Velocity x time

Lets t time takes to cross the river

136 = 18.35 x t

t =7.41 m/s

c)

   The distance covered downstream  

We know that

Distance = Velocity x time

t= 7.41 s

D= 7.41 x 9 m

D= 66.70 m
