Answer:\theta =9.96^{\circ} 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 195sin\theta =33.9

\theta =9.96^{\circ}

so Plane should head towards 9.96^{\circ} North of west in order to fly in west.

So plane

actual velocity is

v=-195cos9.96\hat{i}+195sin9.96\hat{j}

Margarita [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall express each displacement vectorially , i for each unit displacement towards east , j for northward displacement and k for vertical displacement .

14 m due west = - 14 i

22.0 m upward in the elevator = 22 k

12 m north = 12 j

6.00 m east = 6 i

Total displacement = - 14 i + 22 k + 12 j + 6 i

D = - 8 i + 12 j + 22 k

magnitude = √ ( 8² + 12² + 22² )

= √ ( 64 + 144 + 484 )

= √ 692

= 26.3 m

Net displacement from starting point = 26.3 m .

How does an increase in thermal energy affect molecules?
zimovet [89]
The molecules tend to speed up and move faster throughout the substance once thermal energy increases. This is evident whenever we heat up water as its molecules tend to move faster throughout the water as thermal energy tends to increase.

A monatomic gas is measured to have an average speed of 1477 m/s. If the
lana [24]

Answer:

The temperature of the gas is 350.02 K.

Explanation:

The average speed is related to the temperature as follows:

\bar v = \sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M}}   (1)

Where:

\bar v: is the average speed = 1477 m/s

R: is the gas constant = 8.31 J/(K*mol)                                                  

T. is the temperature =?

M: is the molar mass

First, let's find the molar mass:

M = \frac{m}{n}

Where:

m: is the mass of the gas = 0.008 kg

n: is the number of moles = 2 mol

M = \frac{m}{n} = \frac{0.008 kg}{2 mol} = 0.004 kg/mol

Hence, by solving equation (1) fot T we have:

T = \frac{\bar v^{2}*M}{3R} = \frac{(1477 m/s)^{2}*0.004 kg/mol}{3*8.31 J/(K*mol)} = 350.02 K

Therefore, the temperature of the gas is 350.02 K.

I hope it helps you!
