The pilot of an aircraft wishes to fly due west in a 33.9 km/h wind blowing toward the south. The speed of the aircraft in the a
1 answer:
Answer: North of west
Explanation:
Given
Plane wishes to fly in west
but wind with speed 33.9 km/h towards south obstructing its path
so plane must fly at an angle of \theta w.r.t west such that it final velocity is towards west
Plane absolute speed=195 km/h
To fly towards west velocity in Y direction should be zero
thus
so Plane should head towards North of west in order to fly in west.
So plane
actual velocity is

Before going to solve this question first we have to understand specific heat capacity of a substance .
The specific heat of a substance is defined as amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of substance through one degree Celsius. Let us consider a substance whose mass is m.Let Q amount of heat is given to it as a result of which its temperature is raised from T to T'.
Hence specific heat of a substance is calculated as-
Here c is the specific heat capacity.
The substance whose specific heat capacity is more will take more time to be heated up to a certain temperature as compared to a substance having low specific heat which is to be heated up to the same temperature.
As per the question John is experimenting on sand and water.Between sand and water,water has the specific heat 1 cal/gram per degree centigrade which is larger as compared to sand.Hence sand will be heated faster as compared to water.The substance which is heated faster will also cools faster.
From this experiment John concludes that water has more specific heat as compared to sand.
