The site from which an airplane takes off is the origin. The X axis points east, the y axis points straight up. The position and
Contact [7]

Answer:

d = 3.5*10^4 m

Explanation:

In order to calculate the displacement of the airplane you need only the information about the initial position and final position of the airplane. THe initial position is at the origin (0,0,0) and the final position is given by the following vector:

\vec{r}=(1.21*10^3\hat{i}+3.45*10^4\hat{j})m

The displacement of the airplane is obtained by using the general form of the Pythagoras theorem:

d=\sqrt{(x-x_o)^2+(y-y_o)^2}   (1)

where x any are the coordinates of the final position of the airplane and xo and yo the coordinates of the initial position. You replace the values of all variables in the equation (1):

d=\sqrt{(1.12*10^3-0)^2+(3.45*10^4-0)^2}=3.45*10^4m

hence, the displacement of the airplane is 3.45*10^4 m

A typical running track is an oval with 74-mm-diameter half circles at each end. A runner going once around the track covers a d
lisabon 2012 [21]

The centripetal acceleration a is 4.32 \times 10^-4 m/s^2.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The speed is constant and computing the speed from the distance and time for one full lap.

Given, distance = 400 mm = 0.4 m,       Time = 100 s.

Computing the v = 0.4 m / 100 s

                         v = 4 \times 10^-3 m/s.

radius of the circular end r = 37 mm = 0.037 m.

            centripetal acceleration a = v^2 / r

                                                        = (4 \times 10^-3)^2 / 0.037

                                                    a = 4.32 \times 10^-4 m/s^2.

What is one watt ? Write the relation of watt with kilowatt , megawatt , and horsepower .​
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

The watt (the power) is equal to the relationship between the work and the time in which that work is performed.

P = W/t

where:

W = work [J] (units of Joules)

t = time [s].

Now 1000 [W] are equal to 1 [kW]

And 1000000 [W] are equal to 1 [MW]

The horsepower is the unit of power in the imperial system of units.

And 745.7 [W] are equal to 1 [Hp]

lozanna [386]

Answer: Some conversions from one system of units to another need to be exact, without increasing or decreasing the precision of the first measurement. This is sometimes called soft conversion. It does not involve changing the physical configuration of the item being measured.
