In 1976, a 53 kg helicopter was built in Denmark. Suppose this helicopter flew east with a speed of 60.0 m/s and the total momen

tum of the helicopter and pilot was 7,200 kg∙m/s to the east. What was the mass of the pilot?

Answer:

67 kg.

Explanation:

From the question,

Total momentum = (mass of the pilot+ mass of the helicopter)×velocity.

I = (m+M)v............................... Equation 1

Where I = Total momentum of the pilot and the helicopter, m = mass of the pilot, M = mass of the helicopter, v = velocity.

make m the subject of the equation

m = (I/v)-M.............................. Equation 2

Given: I = 7200 kg.m/s, v = 60 m/s, M = 53 kg.

Substitute these values into equation 2

m = (7200/60)-53

m = 120-53

m = 67 kg.

Hence the mass of the pilot is 67 kg

On the way home from school, Taylor's car runs out of gas. He has to walk 25m north and 10m west in order to reach the nearest g
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

<em>The distance is 35 m and the magnitude of the displacement is 26.93 m</em>

Explanation:

<u>Displacement  and Distance</u>

These are two related concepts. A moving object constantly travels for some distance at defined periods of time. The total distance is the sum of each individual distance the object traveled. It can be written as:

dtotal=d1+d2+d3+...+dn

This sum is calculated independently of the direction the object moves.

The displacement only takes into consideration the initial and final positions of the object. The displacement, unlike distance, is a vectorial magnitude and can even have magnitude zero if the object starts and ends the movement at the same point.

Taylor walks 25 m north and 10 m west. The total distance is the sum of both numbers:

d = 25 m + 10 m = 35 m

To calculate the displacement, we need to know the final position with respect to the initial position. If we set the coordinates of Taylor's car as the origin (0,0), then his final position is (-10,25), assuming the west direction is negative and the north direction is positive.

The magnitude of the displacement is the distance from (0,0) to (-10,25):

D=\sqrt{(25-0)^2+(-10-0)^2}

D=\sqrt{625+100}=\sqrt{725}

D = 26.93 m

The distance is 35 m and the magnitude of the displacement is 26.93 m

If the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s and the wavelength of this note is 2.62 m, what is the frequency of this C3 note? (Round
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

<em>The frequency of of the note = 131 Hz.</em>

Explanation:

<em>Frequency:</em><em> Frequency can be defined as the number of complete oscillation completed by a wave in one seconds. The S.I unit of frequency is Hertz ( Hz)</em>

v = λf ............................ Equation 1

Making f the subject of the equation,

f = v/λ .......................... Equation 2

Where v = Speed, λ = wavelength, f = frequency

<em>Given: v = 343 m/s, λ = 2.62 m.</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 2</em>

<em>f = 343/2.62</em>

<em>f = 131 Hz</em>

<em>Thus the frequency of of the note = 131 Hz.</em>
