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]

Answer:

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

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).

The half-life of radium-226 is 1600 years. How many
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

1600 years half life

3200/1600 is 2 half lifes

first half life takes the sample to 1/2 it's original amount and the second takes it to 1/4 of it's original amount

so 1/4*7gm is 1.75gm

The radius of an atom of krypton (kr) is about 1.9 å. (a) express this distance in nanometers (nm). nm express this distance in
I am Lyosha [343]
Note:
1 A (armstrong) = 10⁻¹⁰ m
1 nm (nanometer) = 10⁻⁹ m

Given:
Radius of a krypton atom = 1.9 A = 1.9 x 10⁻¹⁰ m

Part (a)
1.9\,A = (1.9\,A)*(10^{-10}\, \frac{m}{A})*( \frac{1}{10^{-8}} \frac{nm}{m}) } =0.019\,nm
Answer: 0.019 nm

Part (b)
The diameter of a krypton atom = 2*1.9A = 3.8 A = 3.8 x 10⁻¹⁰ m.
The number of krypton atoms within a length of 1.0 mm is
\frac{1.0\, mm}{3.8 \time 10^{-10}\, m} = \frac{10^{-3}\, m}{3.8 \times 10^{-10} \,m} =2.632 \times 10^{6}

Answer: About 2.632 x 10⁶ atoms

Part (c)
The radius of a krypton atom is
1.9 A = (1.9 x 10⁻¹⁰ m)*(10² cm/m) = 1.9 x 10⁻⁸ cm
The volume of a krypton atm is
\frac{4 \pi }{3} (1.9 \times 10^{-8} \, cm)^{3} = 2.873 \times 10^{-23} \, cm^{3}

Answer: 2.873 x 10⁻²³ cm³
