A typical jet airliner has a cruise airspeed of 900 km/h , which is its speed relative to the air through which it is flying. If

the wind at the airliner’s cruise altitude is blowing at 100 km/h from west to east, what is the speed of the airliner relative to the ground if the airplane is flying from (a) west to east, and (b) east to west

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of the jet airplane with respect to air, v_{PA} = 900\ km/h          

If the wind at the airliner’s cruise altitude is blowing at 100 km/h from west to east, v_{AG}= 100\ km/h

(A) Let v_{PG} is the speed of the airliner relative to the ground if the airplane is flying from west to east,

v_{PG}=900-100=800\ km/h

(B) Let v'_{PG} is the speed of the airliner relative to the ground if the airplane is flying from east to west,

v'_{PG}=900+100=1000\ km/h

Hence, this is the required solution.

A single mass (m1 = 3.5 kg) hangs from a spring in a motionless elevator. The spring constant is k = 278 N/m. 1)What is the dist
artcher [175]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

0.126m

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

According to Hooke's law, the force (F) acting on a spring to cause an extension or compression (e) is given by;

F = k x e            -------------------(i)

Where;

k = the spring's constant.

From the question, the force acting on the spring is the weight(W) of the mass. i.e

F = W               -----------------------(ii)

<em>But;</em>

W = m x g;

where;

m = mass of the object

g = acceleration due to gravity [usually taken as 10m/s²]

<em>From equation (ii), it implies that;</em>

F = W = m x g

<em>Now substitute F = m x g into equation(i) as follows;</em>

F = k x e

m x g = k x e      ------------------(iii)

<em>From the question;</em>

m = m1 = 3.5kg

k = 278N/m

<em>Substitute these values into equation (iii) as follows;</em>

3.5 x 10 = 278 x e

35 = 278e

<em>Now solve for e;</em>

e = 35/278

e = 0.126m

Therefore, the distance the spring is stretched from its unstretched length (which is the same as the extension of the spring) is 0.126m

Can you help me??????????????????????????)?

Answer:

Velocity is a change in displacement over change in time and uses the units m/s.

Both are rates of change and can be positive or negative.

Acceleration is a change in velocity over change in time and uses the units m/s².

Explanation:

Velocity is the change in displacement over change in time, this makes it a rate of change. It can be positive or negative because it is a vector quantity. It uses the units m/s because that is a displacement unit over a time unit.

Acceleration is the change in velocity over change in time, this makes it a rate of change. It can be positive or negative because it is also a vector quantity. It uses the units m/s² (m/s/s) because that is a velocity unit over a time unit.

Fifteen grams of substance X at 95 degrees Celsius is mixed with 45 grams of substance Z at 85 degrees Celsius in a container wh
Viefleur [7K]
According to the Law of Conservation of Energy, energy is neither created nor destroyed. They are just transferred from one system to another. To obey this law, the energy of the substances inside the container must be equal to the substance added to it. The energy is in the form of heat. There can be two types of heat energy: latent heat and sensible heat. Sensible heat is energy added or removed when a substance changes in temperature. Latent heat is the energy added or removed at a constant temperature during a phase change. Since there is no mention of phase change, we assume the heat involved here is sensible heat. The equation for sensible heat is:

H = mCpΔT
where
m is the mass of the substance
Cp is the specific heat of a certain type of material or substance
ΔT is the change in temperature.

So the law of conservation of heat tells that:

Sensible heat of Z + Sensible heat of container = Sensible heat of X

Since we have no idea what these substances are, there is no way of knowing the Cp. We can't proceed with the calculations. So, we can only assume that in the duration of 15 minutes, the whole system achieves equilibrium. Therefore, the equilibrium temperature of the system is equal to 32°C. The answer is C.
