The correct answer to the question is  C i.e C represents the friction from air resistance.

EXPLANATION:

Before coming into any conclusion, first we have to understand friction.

The friction is the opposing force which acts tangentially between two bodies in contact when there is a relative motion between them.

The air resistance is that frictional force which is provided by the air to the moving body through it. Hence, the friction from air resistance will be directed opposite to the motion of the body.

In the given diagram, the airplane is going horizontally. The force A acts in forward direction while force C acts in backward direction. The forces B and D are acting vertically.  There is no motion in vertical direction. Hence, the net force of A and C will cause the airplane to move.

As the plane is moving along the direction of A, the frictional force must act along the direction of C.

C, since friction is always going towards the opposite direction the object/person is traveling.

Find the equivalent resistance Req between terminals a and b if terminals c and d are open and again if terminals c and d are sh
adoni [48]

Answer:

351 ohm

720 ohm

Explanation:

When c and d are open:

Terminals c and d are open.. If you  redraw the circuit as below, you can see that the two resistors in the first  column are in parallel as, they are connected together at both pairs of terminals  (due to the short).

Hence, we have a pair of parallel resistors:

Req1 = (R1*R2)/ (R1 + R2) = 360*540/(360+540) = 216 ohms

Req2 = (R3*R4)/ (R3 + R4) = 180*540/(180+540) = 135 ohms

Now these two sets are  in series with another Hence,

Req = Req1 + Req2 = 216 + 135 = 351 ohms

Answer: 351 ohms

When c and d are shorted:

The current will flow through the least resistant path naturally from resistors R3 and R1 or R4.

Both of these resistor lie in a single path placing the resistors in series to one another, hence

Req = R3 + R1 = 180 + 540 = 720 ohms

Answer:720 ohms

An astronaut on Pluto attaches a small brass ball to a 1.00-m length of string and makes a simple pendulum. She times 10 complet
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The acceleration due to gravity at Pluto is 0.0597 m/s^2.

Explanation:

Length, L = 1 m

10 oscillations in 257 seconds

Time period, T = 257/10 = 25.7 s

Let the acceleration due to gravity is g.

Use the formula of time period of simple pendulum

T = 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}\\\\25.7 = 2 \times 31.4\sqrt{\frac{1}{g}}\\\\g = 0.0597 m/s^2

Predict whether the changes in enthalpy, entropy, and free energy will be positive or negative for the melting of ice, and expla
BlackZzzverrR [31]
  <span>Melting of ice is an endothermic process, meaning that energy is absorbed. When ice spontaneously melts, ΔH (change in enthalpy) is "positive". ΔS (entropy change) is also positive, because, becoming a liquid, water molecules lose their fixed position in the ice crystal, and become more disorganized. ΔG (free energy of reaction) is negative when a reaction proceeds spontaneously, as it happens in this case. Ice spontaneously melts at temperatures higher than 0°C. However, liquid water also spontaneously freezes at temperatures below 0°C. Therefore the temperature is instrumental in determining which "melting" of ice, or "freezing" of water becomes spontaneous. The whole process is summarized in the Gibbs free energy equation: 
ΔG = ΔH – TΔS</span>

Two friends leave a movie theater and take different busses to the same ice cream shop. one bus takes a longer route driving on
irinina [24]

The friend who has the greater displacement is the one who takes the longest path.

<h3>What is displacement?</h3>

The displacement is the shortest distance travelled by the particle. It is the vector quantity which re[presents both the magnitude and direction.

Given, two friends leave a movie theater and take different buses to the same ice cream shop. One bus takes a longer route driving on a high-speed highway, while the other takes a shorter route on lower-speed local roads.

According to the definition. the displacement is neither larger not shorter but it is the shortest distance traveled by the person or particle.

Thus, friend who has longer path has larger displacement.
