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

bsence of a wind is 195 km/h. (a) In what direction should the aircraft head? (b) What should its speed relative to the ground be?

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

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

You drop a stone down a well that is 19.60 m deep. How long is it before you hear the splash? The speed of sound in air is 343 m

ki77a [65]

So, the time needed before you hear the splash is approximately <u>2.06 s</u>.

<h3>Introduction</h3>

Hi ! In this question, I will help you. This question uses two principles, namely the time for an object to fall freely and the time for sound to propagate through air. When moving in free fall, the time required can be calculated by the following equation:

$\sf{h = \frac{1}{2} \cdot g \cdot t^2}$

$\sf{\frac{2 \cdot h}{g} = t^2}$

$\boxed{\sf{\bold{t = \sqrt{\frac{2 \cdot h}{g}}}}}$

With the following condition :

t = interval of the time (s)
h = height or any other displacement at vertical line (m)
g = acceleration of the gravity (m/s²)

Meanwhile, for sound propagation (without sound reflection), time propagates is the same as the quotient of distance by time. Or it can be formulated by :

$\boxed{\sf{\bold{t = \frac{s}{v}}}}$

With the following condition :

t = interval of the time (s)
s = shift or displacement (m)
v = velocity (m/s)

<h3>Problem Solving</h3>

We know that :

h = height or any other displacement at vertical line = 19.6 m
g = acceleration of the gravity = 9.8 m/s²
v = velocity = 343 m/s

What was asked :

$\sf{\sum t}$ = ... s

Step by step :

Find the time when the object falls freely until it hits the water. Save value as $\sf{\bold{t_1}}$

$\sf{t_1 = \sqrt{\frac{2 \cdot h}{g}}}$

$\sf{t_1 = \sqrt{\frac{2 \cdot \cancel{19.6} \:_2}{\cancel{9.8}}}}$

$\sf{t_1 = \sqrt{4}}$

$\sf{\bold{t_1 = 2 \: s}}$

Find the time when the sound propagate through air. Save value as $\sf{\bold{t_2}}$

$\sf{t_2 = \frac{h}{v}}$

$\sf{t_2 = \frac{19.6}{343}}$

$\sf{\bold{t_2 \approx 0.06 \: s}}$

Find the total time $\sf{\bold{\sum t}}$

$\sf{\sum t = t_1 + t_2}$

$\sf{\sum t \approx 2 + 0.06}$

$\boxed{\sf{\sum t \approx 2.06}}$

<h3>Conclusion</h3>

So, the time needed before you hear the splash is approximately 2.06 s.

What happends when you slowly pull out the paper while theirs a coin on top

HACTEHA [7]

The coin would probably slowly slide down whichever end it is closer to, weigh down the end of the paper, and fall off. It kinda depends on how you hold the paper though, because if it is directly in middle, and you hold it on both ends, it will stay on the paper.
