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

Two 1 MHz radio antennas emitting in-phase are separated by600
algol [13]

Answer:

1 km

Explanation:

d_0 = Gap between antennas = 600 m

\nu = Frequency = 1 MHz

z_1 = Distance to receiver = 2 km

c = Speed of light = 3\times 10^8\ m/s

Wavelength is given by

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{\nu}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\dfrac{3\times 10^8}{1\times 10^6}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=300\ m

Distance to be moved is given by

D=\dfrac{z_1\lambda_0}{d_0}\\\Rightarrow D=\dfrac{2\times 300}{600}\\\Rightarrow D=1\ km

The distance to be moved is 1 km north.

As a science fair project, you want to launch an 950g model rocket straight up and hit a horizontally moving target as it passes
marin [14]

Answer:

55.28 m

Explanation:

Mass of the rocket = 950 g = 950 / 1000 = 0.95 kg

force of gravity = 0.95 Kg × 9.81 m/s² = 9.3195 N

force due to acceleration = 18.3 N - 9.3195 N = 8.9805 N

F = ma

acceleration of the rocket = F / m = 8.9805 N / 0.95 Kg = 9.45 m/s²

using the equation of motion

d = ut + 1/2 at² u = 0 m/s

d = 1/2 at²

t = √(2d / a) = √ ( 2 × 40 m /  9.45 m/s²) = 2.91 s

the horizontal distance between the target and the rocket = vt = 19 m/s × 2.91 s = 55.28 m

The table below shows the distance d(t) in feet that an object travels in t seconds:
vazorg [7]
The rate of change of d(t) at t = 2 and t = 6 is the ratio between the change of distance (difference between the distances) to the time elapsed. That is,
                                   r = (576 - 64) / (6 - 2) = 128 ft /s
The rate of change is equal to 128 ft/s and this represents the average speed at this time interval.
