Answer:

The velocity of wind with respect to cyclist is -15.5 \widehat{i} - 3.5 \widehat{j}.

Explanation:

speed of cyclist = 12 km/h east

speed of wind = 5 km/h south west

Write the speeds in the vector form

\overrightarrow{vc} = 12 \widehat{i}\\\\overrightarrow{vw} = - 5 (cos 45 \widehat{i} + sin 45 \widehat{j})\\\\\overrightarrow{vw} =-3.5 \widehat{i} - 3.5 \widehat{j}

The velocity of wind with respect to cyclist is

\overrightarrow{vw} =-3.5 \widehat{i} - 3.5 \widehat{j}\overrightarrow{v_(w/c)} = \overrightarrow{vw}-\overrightarrow{vc}\\\\\overrightarrow{v_(w/c)} = - 3.5 \widehat{i} - 3.5 \widehat{j}  - 12 \widehat{i}\\\\\overrightarrow{v_(w/c)} =-15.5 \widehat{i} - 3.5 \widehat{j}

How many joules of electrical energy is transferred per second by 6V 0.5 A lamp?
Degger [83]

When you ask for "joules per second", you're asking for "watts".
The rate of energy "transfer" is 'power'.  In this case, the light bulb
transfers energy out of the electrical circuit and into the space
around it, in the form of light and heat radiation.

Electrical power = (voltage) x (current) =

                              (6 volts) x (0.5 ampere) =

                                          3 watts  =  3 joules per second.

Answer:

C/100 = (F-32) / 180

or, C/5 = (F-32)/9

Explanation:

relation between any two scales is given by:

(X- lower fixed point ) / (upper fixed point -lower fixed point)

where X is any temperature

The volume of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its
Leni [432]

Answer: Charles's law

Explanation:

Charles's law is one of the gas laws, and it explains the effect of temperature changes on the volume of a given mass of gas at a constant pressure. Usually, the volume of a gas decreases as the temperature decreases and increases as the temperature also increases.

Mathematically, Charles's law can be expressed as:

V ∝ T

V = kT or (V/T) = k

where v is volume, T is temperature in Kelvin, and a k is a constant.
