The tailwind speed would actually add up to the speed of the plane.

It would blow from behind the tail of the plane.

Resultant Velocity = 20 km/h + 150 km/h = 170 km/h

The resultant velocity of the plane is the sum of the velocities of the plane and the wind with the consideration of their directions. The plane heads south and the wind being a tailwind also heads south. Hence, we add their values. That is,
                                 r = 150 km/hr + 20 km/hr
The answer is 170 km/hr.

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

(a) Acceleration of positron is 6.03 x 10¹³ m/s²

(b) Speed of positron after 8.70 x 10⁻⁹ s is 5.24 x 10⁵ m/s

Explanation:

Given :

Constant electric field, E = 343 N/C

Mass of positron, m = 9.1 x 10⁻³¹ kg

Charge of positron, q = +e = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

(a) Coulomb force on the positron is determine by the relation :

F = q x E    ....(1)

But, force is also equals to product of mass and acceleration. So,

F = ma  .....(2)

Here a is acceleration.

From equation (1) and (2).

m x a = q x E

a=\frac{qE}{m}

Substitute the values of q, E and m in the above equation.

a=\frac{1.6\times10^{-19}\times 343}{9.1\times10^{-31} }

a = 6.03 x 10¹³ m/s²

(b) Initially, the positron is at rest, so its initial speed is zero.

The equation of motion for positron is :

v = u + at

Here v is final speed, u is initial speed and t is time.

Since, u is zero, so the equation becomes :

v = at

Substitute 8.70 x 10⁻⁹ s for t and 6.03 x 10¹³ m/s² for a in the above equation.

v = 6.03 x 10¹³ x 8.70 x 10⁻⁹ m/s

v = 5.24 x 10⁵ m/s

How heavy is an object that displaces 400N of water in a pool
matrenka [14]
We can only corelate the object's weight with the amount of water it was able to displaced. 

If the water displaced was around 400N, then the amount of liter displaced is around 400 N (kg*m/s²) / 9.8 m/s² (earth's gravitational pull) which is equals to ~40.81 liters which should be the objects mass as the best assumption (1kg = 1L). As there is no direct link between the water displaced and actual object weight.

A wire of length L is made up of two sections of two different materials connected in series. The first section of length L1 = 1
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

velocity of wave in a tense wire is given by the expression

v= \sqrt{\frac{T}{m} }

v is velocity . T is tension and m is mass per unit length .

for steel wire

m = π r² ρ where r is radius and ρ is density

= 3.14 x (5.3 x 10⁻⁴)²x7.75 x 10³

= 683.57 x 10⁻⁵ kg/m

v =  \sqrt{\frac{148}{683.57\times 10^{-5}} }

= 1.47 x 10² m /s

= 147 m /s

for iron  wire

m = π r² ρ where r is radius and ρ is density

= 3.14 x (5.3 x 10⁻⁴)²x7.86 x 10³

= 693.27 x 10⁻⁵ kg/m

v = \sqrt{\frac{148}{693.27\times 10^{-5}} }

= 146 m /s

Time taken to move from one end to another

= 17.7 / 147 + 28.5 / 146

= .12 + .195

= .315 s .
