Lindsay is planning a flight from St. Catharines to Hamilton, which lies due west of St. Catharines. Her aircraft flies at a spe

ed of 200 km/h in still air.A wind of 50.0 km/h is blowing from [W 608 N]. In what direction must sheaim the airplane to fly directly to Hamilton?

Lindsay has to fly this plane towards this direction [W 12.5° S] to get to Hamilton.

From this question, the plane is still up in the air.

We have wind blowing in [W 60° N ]

To solve the problem we have to make use of the sine rule

\frac{SinA}{a}=\frac{SinB}{b} =\frac{SinC}{c}

We put the values in the equation, we have:

50/Sinθ = 200/sin60°

The next step is to cross multiply

50 x sin60° = 200Sinθ

50 x 0.8660 = 200sinθ

We make Sin θ the subject

Sine θ = 43.30/200

sine θ = 0.2165

we find the value of θ

θ = sine⁻¹(0.2165)

θ = 12.50

So Lindsay has to fly this plane towards this direction

[W 12.5° S]

------------

It's a triangle problem.

The long side is the 200 km/hr, at an angle to be determined.

-----

1 side is 50 km/hr at an angle of -60 degs or 300 degs.

The 3rd side's length is not known, but it's at an angle of 180 degs (along the x-axis).

In which state of matter are water molecules measured as having the lowest temperature?
natali 33 [55]
Molecules in the solid phase have the least amount of energy, while gas particles have the greatest amount of energy. The temperature of a substance is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles.

Answer:

A.model the reflection of a light wave

The Wave Model of Light Toolkit provides teachers with standards-based resources for designing lesson plans and units that pertain to such topics as the light's wavelike behaviors, wave-particle duality, light-wave interference, and light polarization

B. .model the absorption of a light wave

The simplest model is the Drude/Lorentz model, where the light wave makes charged particle oscillate while the particle is also being damped by a force of friction (damping force)

A mirror provides the foremost common model for reflective light wave reflection and generally consists of a glass sheet with a gold coating wherever the many reflections happen. Reflection is increased in metals by suppression of wave propagation on the far side their skin depths

C.model the transmimssion of a light wave

The Wave Model describes how light propagates in the same way as we model ocean waves moving through the water. By thinking of light as an oscillating wave, we can account for properties of light such as its wavelength and frequency. By including wavelength information, the Wave Model can be used to explain colors.

If a 100-N net force acts on a 50-kg car, what will the acceleration of the car be?
Tema [17]
Newton's 2nd law of motion: 

                             Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

Divide each side by (mass):     

                             Acceleration = (force) / (mass)

                                               =  (100 N) / (50 kg)

                                               =  2 m/s²

Name three ways that being obese puts a strain on your heart & can lead to serious health problems.
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

Obesity changes in the structure and function of the heart. It increases your risk of heart disease. The more you weigh, the more blood you have flowing through your body. The heart has to work harder to pump the extra blood.
