Answer:

678.2 km/h and 80.54° north of east

Explanation:

From the question,

Using pythagoras theorem,

a² = b²+c²..................... Equation 1

Where a = resultant velocity

Given: b = 600 km/h, c = 100 km/h

Substitute these values into equation 1

R² = 600²+100²

R² = 360000+10000

R² = 460000

R = √460000

R = 678.2 km/h.

And the direction is

tanθ = 600/100

tanθ = 6

θ = tan⁻¹(6)

θ = 80.54°.

Hence the resultant velocity of the aircraft is 678.2 km/h and 80.54° north of east

Explanation:

<u>Dimensional Analysis</u>

It's given the relation between quantities A, B, and C as follows:

$\displaystyle A=\frac{3}{2}B^mC^n$

and the dimensions of each variable is:

$A=L^2T^2$

$B=LT^{-1}$

$C=LT^2$

Substituting the dimensions into the relation (the coefficient is not important in dimension analysis):

$\displaystyle L^2T^2=\left(LT^{-1}\right)^m\left(LT^2\right)^n$

Operating:

$L^2T^2=\left(L^mT^{-m}\right)\left(L^nT^{2n}\right)$

$L^2T^2=L^{m+m}T^{-m+2n}$

Equating the exponents:

$m+n=2$

$-m+2n=2$

Adding both equations:

$3n=4$

Solving:

$n=4/3$

$m=2-4/3=2/3$

Answer:

$\mathbf{\displaystyle m=\frac{2}{3},\ n=\frac{4}{3}}$

An automobile with tires that have a radius of 0.260 m travels 76000 km before wearing them out. How many revolutions do the tir

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

circumference of the tyre = 2πr = 2 x 3.14 x 0.26 = 1.6328m

76000km = 76000000m

no of revolutions required

= 76000000/1.6328 = 46546 revolutions.

Explain what causes something to be a magnet

Luden [163]

Magnetism is the force exerted by magnets when they attract or repel each other. Magnetism is caused by the motion of electric charges. Every substance is made up of tiny units called atoms. Each atom has electrons, particles that carry electric charges.
