Find the westward component of a resultant vector 85.42 unit, 23 degrees W of N
Sindrei [870]

Since the angle is West of North, therefore to find for the westward component (horizontal component) of the vector, we use the sin function:

sin θ = opposite side / hypotenuse = westward component / resultant vector

So the westward component (x) is:

x = 85.42 sin 23

<span>x = 33.38 unit</span>

An ideal gas with k 5 1.4 is flowing through a nozzle such that the Mach number is 1.8 where the flow area is 36 cm2. Approximat
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

The flow area at the location where the Mach number is 0.9 is 25.24 cm²

Explanation:

Here we have for isentropic flow;

\frac{A}{A^*} = \frac{1}{M}(\frac{2}{k+1} (1+\frac{k-1}{2}M^2))^{(\frac{k+1}{2(k-1)} )

Where:

A = Area of flow = 36 cm²

M = Mach number at section of = 1.8

k = Specific heat ratio = 1.4

A* = Area at the throat

Therefore, plugging the values we get

\frac{36}{A^*} = \frac{1}{1.8}(\frac{2}{1.4+1} (1+\frac{1.4-1}{2}1.8^2))^{(\frac{1.4+1}{2(1.4-1)} ) = 1.439

Therefore, A* = 36/1.439 = 25.01769 cm²

Where the Mach number is 0.9, we have

\frac{A}{25.02} = \frac{1}{0.9}(\frac{2}{1.4+1} (1+\frac{1.4-1}{2}0.9^2))^{(\frac{1.4+1}{2(1.4-1)} ) = 1.009

Therefore A = 25.020× 1.009 = 25.24 cm²

The flow area at the location where the Mach number is 0.9 = 25.24 cm².

You are driving west in your car on a clear, warm day. Up ahead, you see a dark band of ominous clouds. Soon, you drive beneath
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

You have just driven across the Cold front.

Explanation:

Weather Front:

In Meteorology, weather fronts are simply boundaries between two air masses of different densities. There are four weather fronts and one of them is cold front and other fronts are warm front, stationary front and occluded front.

Cold Front:

In Meteorology, cold front is a boundary of cold air mass that is advancing under the warm air mass.

In our scenario, as the driver was moving in the west and he listened on radio, the next country on north is under tornado warning. So, when he passed the cold front, he experienced the conditions described.
