consider the west direction as positive direction of motion

V' = velocity of airplane relative to observer on ground = 580 mph

v = velocity of wind relative to observer on ground

V = average speed of airplane with no wind = 600 mph

relative velocity is given as

V' = V + v

inserting the values

580 = 600 + v

v = 580 - 600

v = - 20 mph

the negative sign indicates the direction of wind is opposite to direction of airplane , east

hence speed of wind is 20 mph in east direction.

Velocity of airplane without any wind

v_1 = 600 mph

now when air is blowing with some speed then the net speed is observed by the observer

v_{net} = 580 mph

now we will have

v_{net} = v_1 - v_w

wind speed here is given as v_w

now here we will have

580 = 600 - v_w

v_w = 20 mph

so wind speed will have 20 mph

As you can see, my cousin has a lot of hair. He uses an 1800 W blow dryer and it takes him
maw [93]

Power = 1800W (or 1.8KW by dividing by 1000)

Time = 3 hours

Power = energy/ time

1.8KW = energy/ 3

x3

5.4Kw/h= energy

(5.4KJ or 5400J used)

$0.15 Kw/h

$0.15 X 5.4 = 0.81

Thus, cost $0.81

Hope this helps!

How much heat is required to convert 0.3 kg of ice at 0°C to water at the same temperature
madreJ [45]

Answer:  

100,800 Jkg


The heat that is used to change the state of a mater is called latent heat.

In this case it is converting ice to water and it is called latent heat of fusion.

It is given by:

Heat  = mc

where m is the mass of ice and l is the specific latent heat of fusion of ice.

l = 0.336 MJ

Heat = 0.3 × 0.336 MJ

        = 0.3 × 0.336 × 10⁶

        = 100,800 Jkg

Jason applies a force of 4.00 newtons to a sled at an angle 62.0 degrees from the ground. What is the component of force effecti
Andreas93 [3]
Answer: 1.88 N

Explanation:

Data:

Force = 4.00N
angle = 62°
horizontal force = ?

Solution:

The trigonometric ratio that relates horizontal - leg to hypotenuse is the cosine.

That ratio is:

                        horizontal - leg
cos(angle) = -------------------------
                          hypotenuse

So, applied to the force, that is:

                             horizontal force
cos (angle) = -----------------------------------
                                 total force

So, clearing the horizontal component you get:
                                         
horizontal force = force * cos (angle)

Substitute the data given:

horizontal force = 4.00N * cos(62°) = 4.00N * 0.4695 = 1.88 N

Answer: 1.88N
