A plane lands on a runway with a speed of 115 m/s, moving east, and it slows to a stop in 13.0 s. What is the magnitude (in m/s2
marin [14]

Answer:

<em> The planes average acceleration in magnitude and direction = 8.846 m/s² moving east</em>

Explanation:

Acceleration: This can be defined as the rate of change of velocity. The S.I Unit of acceleration is m/s². Acceleration is a vector quantity because it can be represented both in magnitude and in direction.

Acceleration can be represented mathematically as

a = v/t.................................... Equation 1

Where a = acceleration, v = velocity, t= time.

<em>Given: v = 115 m/s, t = 13.0 s</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 1</em>

<em>a = 115/13</em>

<em>a = 8.846 m/s² moving east</em>

<em>Thus the planes average acceleration in magnitude and direction = 8.846 m/s² moving east</em>

Guys please help me ​
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

1)t=2.26\: s

2)S=33.9\: m

3)v=26.77\: m/s

4)\alpha=55.92

Explanation:

1)

We can use the following equation:

y_{f}=y_{0}+v_{iy}t-0.5*g*t^{2}

Here, the initial velocity in the y-direction is zero, the final y position is zero and the initial y position is 25 m.

0=25-0.5*9.81*t^{2}

t=2.26\: s

2)

The equation of the motion in the x-direction is:

v_{ix}=\frac{S}{t}

15=\frac{S}{2.26}

S=33.9\: m

3)

The velocity in the y-direction of the stone will be:

v_{fy}=v_{iy}-gt

v_{fy}=0-(9.81*2.26)

v_{fy}=-22.17\: m/s

Now, the velocity in the x-direction is 15 m/s then the velocity will be:

v=\sqrt{v_{x}^{2}+v_{fy}^{2}}=\sqrt{15^{2}+(-22.17)^{2}}

v=26.77\: m/s

4)

The angle of this velocity is:

tan(\alpha)=\frac{22.17}{15}

\alpha=tan^{-1}(\frac{22.17}{15})

\alpha=55.92

Then α=55.92° negative from the x-direction.

I hope it helps you!

Light of wavelength 436.1 nm falls on two slits spaced 0.31 mm apart. What is the required distance from the slits to the screen
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

The correct answer is "4.26 m".

Explanation:

Given:

Wavelength,

\lambda = 436.1 \ nm

or,

  =436.1\times 10^{-9} \ m

Distance,

d = 0.31 \ mm

or,

  =0.31\times 10^{-3} \ m

Distance between the 1st and 2nd dark fringes,

(y_2-y_1) = 6\times 10^{-3} \ m

As we know,

⇒ \frac{d}{L} (y_2-y_1) = \lambda

or,

⇒ L=\frac{d(y_2-y_1)}{\lambda}

By substituting the values, we get

       =\frac{0.31\times 6\times 10^{-6}}{436.1\times 10^{-9}}

       =\frac{0.31\times 6\times 10^3}{436.1}

       =\frac{1860}{436.1}

       =4.26 \ m

A certain heat engine takes in 300 J of energy from a hot source and then transfers 200 J of that energy to a colder object. Wha
Greeley [361]

Answer:

The efficiency is 0.33, or 33%.

Explanation:

From the thermodynamics equations, we know that the formula for the efficiency of a heat engine is:

\eta=1-\frac{Q_2}{Q_1}

Where η is the efficiency of the engine, Q_1 is the heat energy taken from the hot source and Q_2 is the heat energy given to the cold object. So, plugging the given values in the formula, we obtain:

\eta=1-\frac{200J}{300J}=0.33

This means that the efficiency of the heat engine is 0.33, or 33% (The efficiency of an engine is dimensionless).
