Answer:
70.5 mph
Explanation:
A passenger jet travels from Los Angeles to Bombay, India, in 22h.
The return flight takes 17 h.
The difference in flight times is caused by winds over the Pacific Ocean that
blow primarily from west to east.
If the jet's average speed in still air is 550 mi/h what is the average speed
of the wind during the round trip flight? Round to the nearest mile per hour.
Is your answer reasonable?
:
Let w = speed of the wind
:
Write a distance equation (dist is the same both ways
17(550+w) = 22(550-w)
9350 + 17w = 12100 - 22w
17w + 22w = 12100 - 9350
39w = 2750
W = 2750/39
w = 70.5 mph seems very reasonable
:
Confirming if the solution by finding the distances using these value
17(550+70.5) = 10549 mi
22(550-70.5) = 10549 mi; confirms our solution of w = 70.5 mph
Answer:
due to the inertia of motion, the fan continues to move for some time even after switching it off.
Answer:
<em>Digital clock is the most precised one</em>
<em></em>
Explanation:
Give a turn signal for at least the last 100 feet before you make your turn to let other drivers know what you are going to do.
Making turns, turning a corner may seem to be a simple operation, however many accidents or traffic crashes are caused by drivers who do not turn correctly.
