Answer:

It should fly 8° to west of south at 430km/h

Explanation:

According to the diagram. X components for both velocities must have the same magnitude in order to get the resultant velocity due south.

V_{w}*cos(45) = V_{A}*sin(\alpha )   Solving for α:

α = 8.03°

One barometer tube has twice the cross-sectional area of another. mercury in the smaller tube will rise _____.
Andreas93 [3]
The answer is "the same than the mercury in the bigger tube".

If one barometer tube has twice the cross-sectional area of another, mercury in the smaller tube will rise the same than the mercury in the bigger tube.

The mercury will rise to the point where the column of mercury has the same weight as the force exerted by the atmosphere.

The force exerted by the atmosphere is pressure * cross-sectional area

Anf the weight of the column of mercury, W, will be:

W = m* g

where m = density * volume, and volume = cross-sectional area * height

=> W = density * cross-sectional area * height

Then,  you make W = F and get:

density * cross-sectional area * height = P * cross-sectional area

The term cress-sectional area appears on both sides so it gets cancelled, and the height of the column of mercury does not depend on the cross-sectional area of the barometer.

Sally turns on her cellular telephone to speak to her friend who is located thousands of miles away. Which of the following best
Marizza181 [45]

As we know that in cellular phone all the signals are transmitted by antenna in the form of electromagnetic waves

All these electromagnetic waves are transmitted through the phones and then received as a signal to the receiver of another phone

These signals are then processed and converted into sound which is produced by the phone

So here correct answer will be

<em>C. The cellular telephone transmits information by electromagnetic waves to a receiver which then encodes them and produces sound.</em>

fredd [130]

Answer:

B. The algebraic sum of the two electric potentials is determined at a distance r/2 from each of the charges, making sure to include the signs of the charges.

Explanation:

Total electric potential is the sum of all the electric potential. And because electric potential is a scalar quantity you have to account for the signs.
