vovangra [49]

Answer:

$c=71.4m/s$

$\theta=8.54\textdegree$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Initial velocity of 60 m/s

Wind speed $V_w= 15 m/s \angle 45 \textdegree$

Generally Resolving vector mathematically

$sin(45\textdegree)15=10.6\\cos(45\textdegree)15=10.6$

Generally the equation Pythagoras theorem is given mathematically by

$c^2=a^2+b^2$

$c^2=10.6^2 +(10.6+60)^2$

$c=\sqrt{10.6^2 +(10.6+60)^2}$

Therefore Resultant velocity (m/s)

$c=71.4m/s$

b)Resultant direction

Generally the equation for solving Resultant direction

$\theta=tan^-1(\frac{y}{x})$

Therefore

$\theta=tan^-1(\frac{10.6}{70.6})$

$\theta=8.54\textdegree$

In comparing sunspots to other areas of the sun's surface one can say that sunspots are...?

taurus [48]

Answer:

D. Cooler

Explanation:

The Sun's surface has a temperature ranging from 6 000 Kelvin, thus it is very hot. The radioactive reaction in the core of the Sun is a nuclear fusion reaction. This reaction ensures continuous release of high energy from the surface of the Sun.

But during the reaction, some parts becomes cooler than other parts on its surface. Which is due to the release of high amount of energy into space. The Sun's spot can be found in the cooler part of the Sun.

Bats use a process called echolocation to find their food. This involves giving out sound waves that hit possible prey or food.

cupoosta [38]

The type of waves used by bats are sound waves. Most of the species use their larynx to produce ultrasound waves in the frequency range of 20 to 200 kilohertz.
These sound waves are echoed, reflected, by surroundings, in this case food or prey. These reflections are received by the specialized receptor cells in the ears of bats. The reflections are analyzed by the brain to make an image.
Fun fact: The brain cells of bats are also specialized to better analyze the frequency of ultrasound used by the bat.

Yanka [14]

Answer:

V = 2.87 m/s

Explanation:

The minimum speed required would be that at which the acceleration due to gravity is negated by the centrifugal force on the water.

Thus, we simply need to set the centripetal acceleration equal to gravity and solve for the speed V using the following equation:

Centripetal acceleration = V^2 / r

where r is the distance of water from the pivot or shoulder.
