Two airplanes leave an airport at the same time. The velocity of the first airplane is 750 m/h at a heading of 51.3°. The veloci

ty of the second is 620 m/h at a heading of 163°. How far apart are they after 2.4 h? Answer in units of m. Can someone explain please

Answer: 2727m

Explanation:

1) Position of first airplane after 2.4 h

Constant velocity ⇒ V = d / t ⇒ d = Vt =

d = 750m/h × 2.4h = 1,800 m; 51.3°

2) Position of the second airplaine after 2.4 h

Constant velocity ⇒d = 620m/h × 2.4 h = 1,488 m; 163°

3) Angle between the airplains, α:

α = 163° - 51.3° = 111.7°

4) Cosine theorem

a² = b² + c² - 2bc cosine (α)

b = 1,800 m (calcualted in part 1)

c = 1,488m (calculated in part 2)

α = 111.7°

⇒ a² = (1,800m)² + (1,488m)² - 2(1,800m)(1,488m) cos(111.7°) = 7,434,803 m²

⇒ a = √(7,434,803 m²) = 2,726.7 m ≈ 2,727m

a is the distance that separate the two airplains after 2.4 h

Refer to the diagram shown below.

In 2.4 hours, the distance traveled by the first airplane heading a 51.3° at 750 mph is 
a = 750*2.4 = 1800 miles.

The second airplane travels
b = 620*2.4 = 1488 mile

The angle between the two airplanes is
163° - 51.3° = 111.7°

Let c =  the distance between the two airplanes after 2.4 hours.
From the Law of Cosines, obtain
c² = a² + b² - 2ab cos(111.7°)
    = 3.24 x 10⁶ + 2.2141 x 10⁶
c = 2335.41 miles

Answer: 2335.4 miles

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

F_a=1470\ N

Explanation:

<u>Friction Force</u>

When objects are in contact with other objects or rough surfaces, the friction forces appear when we try to move them with respect to each other. The friction forces always have a direction opposite to the intended motion, i.e. if the object is pushed to the right, the friction force is exerted to the left.

There are two blocks, one of 400 kg on a horizontal surface and other of 100 kg on top of it tied to a vertical wall by a string. If we try to push the first block, it will not move freely, because two friction forces appear: one exerted by the surface and the other exerted by the contact between both blocks. Let's call them Fr1 and Fr2 respectively. The block 2 is attached to the wall by a string, so it won't simply move with the block 1.  

Please find the free body diagrams in the figure provided below.

The equilibrium condition for the mass 1 is

\displaystyle F_a-F_{r1}-F_{r2}=m.a=0

The mass m1 is being pushed by the force Fa so that slipping with the mass m2 barely occurs, thus the system is not moving, and a=0. Solving for Fa

\displaystyle F_a=F_{r1}+F_{r2}.....[1]

The mass 2 is tried to be pushed to the right by the friction force Fr2 between them, but the string keeps it fixed in position with the tension T. The equation in the horizontal axis is

\displaystyle F_{r2}-T=0

The friction forces are computed by

\displaystyle F_{r2}=\mu \ N_2=\mu\ m_2\ g

\displaystyle F_{r1}=\mu \ N_1=\mu(m_1+m_2)g

Recall N1 is the reaction of the surface on mass m1 which holds a total mass of m1+m2.

Replacing in [1]

\displaystyle F_{a}=\mu \ m_2\ g\ +\mu(m_1+m_2)g

Simplifying

\displaystyle F_{a}=\mu \ g(m_1+2\ m_2)

Plugging in the values

\displaystyle F_{a}=0.25(9.8)[400+2(100)]

\boxed{F_a=1470\ N}

givi [52]

Answer:

2.5m/s^2

Explanation:

Step one:

given

distance = 20meters

time = 2 seconds

initial velocity u= 0m/s

let us solve for the final velocity

velocity = distance/time

velocity= 20/2

velocity= 10m/s

v^2=u^2+2as\\\\10^2=0^2+2*a*20\\\\100=40a

divide both sides by 40

a= 100/40\\\\a=10/4\\\\a= 5/2\\\\a= 2.5m/s^2
