Answer:

North east

Explanation:

The distance travelled by a plane from one point to another is the shortest distance between the two points. This distance travelled is usually a straight line path from point 1 to point 2.

Since the plane ends up 220 km farther east and 100.0 km farther north, the direction of flight for the plane is in the North-East direction.

Let x represent the distance travelled by the plane. Hence:

x² = 100² + 220²

x² = 58400

x = 241.66 km

bija089 [108]

Explanation:

Terminal velocity is given by:

v_t=\sqrt{\frac{2mg}{\rho C_dA}}

Here, m is the mass of the falling object, g is the gravitational acceleration,  C_d is the drag coefficient, \rho is the fluid density through which the object is falling, and A is the projected area of the object. in this case the projected area is given by:

A=\frac{A_s}{2}=\frac{930cm^2}{2}=465cm^2\\465cm^2*\frac{1m^2}{10^4cm^2}=0.0465m^2\\560g*\frac{1kg}{10^3g}=0.56kg

Recall that drag coefficient for a horizontal skydiver is equal to 1 and air density is 1.28\frac{kg}{m^3}.

v_t=\sqrt{\frac{2(0.56kg)(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})}{(1.28\frac{kg}{m^3}(1)(0.0465m^2)}}\\v_t=13.58\frac{m}{s}

Without drag contribution the motion of the person is an uniformly accelerated motion, thus:

v_f^2=v_o^2+2gh\\v_f=\sqrt{2gh}\\v_f=\sqrt{2(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})(5m)}\\v_f=9.9\frac{m}{s}

Which electromagnetic wave has the lowest frequencies (less than 3×109 hertz)?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Radio waves

Explanation:

The electromagnetic spectrum includes all different types of waves, which are usually classified depending on their frequency. Ordering them from the highest frequency to the lowest frequency, they are:

- Gamma rays

- X-rays

- Ultraviolet

- Visible light

- Infrared radiation

- Microwaves

- Radio waves

Radio waves are the electromagnetic waves with lowest frequency, their frequency is lower than 300 GHz (3\cdot 10^{11} Hz) and therefore they are the electromagnetic waves with lowest energy (in fact, the energy of an electromagnetic wave is proportional to its frequency). They are generally used for radio and telecommunications since this type of waves can travel up to long distances.

Inga [223]

Answer:

is in the earths orbit

Explanation:

for Suzie to hover in space beside the rotating space station, she and the center  of mass of the space station are at relative rest which happens when space station is in Earth orbit, hence she is  in the earths orbit.
