Answer:

141.152 miles per hour is the speed of the plane in miles per hour

Explanation:

Speed of plane = Total distance travelled/total time taken -

v = D/t

Substituting the given values in the above equation, we get

v = 467/3.3 miles /hour

v = 141.152 miles per hour

141.152 miles per hour is the speed of the plane in miles per hour

Exposure to the Sun's harmful infrared radiation should be kept to a minimum.

zysi [14]

Of course! If it's harmful, then your exposure to it should be kept
to a minimum. That's a no-brainer. But the sun's infrared radiation
is generally less harmful than its ultraviolet radiation is.

A 10 kg migratory swan cruises at 20m/s. A calculation that takes into ac-count the necessary forces shows that this motion requ

IgorC [24]

Answer:

Part A:

Distance=864000 m=864 km

Part B:

Energy Used=ΔE=8638000 Joules

Part C:

$\frac{\triangle m}{m}=0.004998=0.49985\%$

Explanation:

Given Data:

v=20m/s

Time =t=12 hours

In Secs:

Time=12*60*60=43200 secs

Solution:

Part A:

Distance = Speed**Time

Distance=v*t

Distance= 20*43200

Distance=864000 m=864 km

Part B:

Energy Used=ΔE= Energy Required-Kinetic Energy of swans

Energy Required to move= Power Required*time

Energy Required to move=200*43200=8640000 Joules

Kinetic Energy= $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$K.E\ of\ Swans=\frac{1}{2} *10*(20)^2=2000\ Joules$

Energy Used=ΔE=8640000 -2000

Energy Used=ΔE=8638000 Joules

Part C:

Fraction of Mass used=Δm/m

For This first calculate fraction of energy used:

Fraction of energy=ΔE/Energy required to move

ΔE is calculated in part B

Fraction of energy=8638000/8640000

Fraction of energy=0.99977

Kinetic Energy= $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Now, the relation between energies ratio and masses is:

$\frac{\triangle E}{E}=\frac{\triangle m}{2m}v^2$

$\frac{\triangle m}{m}=\frac{2}{v^2} *\frac{\triangle E}{E}\\\frac{\triangle m}{m}=\frac{2}{20^2} *0.99977$

$\frac{\triangle m}{m}=0.004998=0.49985\%$

A pebble is thrown into the air with a velocity of 19/m at an angle of 36 with respect to the horizontal.

kow [346]

Answer:

The maximum height the pebble reaches is approximately;

A. 6.4 m

Explanation:

The question is with regards to projectile motion of an object

The given parameters are;

The initial velocity of the pebble, u = 19 m/s

The angle the projectile path of the pebble makes with the horizontal, θ = 36°

The maximum height of a projectile, $h_{max}$ , is given by the following equation;

$h_{max} = \dfrac{\left (u \times sin(\theta) \right)^2}{2 \cdot g}$

Therefore, substituting the known values for the pebble, we have;

$h_{max} = \dfrac{\left (19 \times sin(36 ^{\circ}) \right)^2}{2 \times 9.8} = 6.3633894140470403035477570509439$

Therefore, the maximum height of the pebble projectile, $h_{max}$ ≈ 6.4 m.

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

Student c's belief is fulfilled only for the movement of the earth with respect to the sun. But it has no validity or does not exist when it is necessary to explain other physical phenomena with respect to other satellites. For example, how would you explain the phases of the moon, if the Earth is located in the center of the Galaxy?, another serious question regarding the observations made by scientists millions of years ago, where they observed that the distances of the Earth from other planets were changing, with respect to time. If the Earth was in the center, all the planets and the sun would revolve around it preserving a constant distance (radius), at all times.

Other phenomena to explain would be the seasons on Earth, these are due to the axis of inclination of the Earth and the rotation of it around the sun.
