Answer:

6.1 km

Explanation:

Given that a plane travels 4.0 km at an angle of 25◦ to the ground, then changes direction and travels 10 km at an angle of 16◦ to the ground. What is the magnitude of the plane's total displacement? Answer in units of km

The magnitude of the total displacement D can be calculated by using cosine formula

Ø = 25 - 16 = 9 degree

D^2 = 4^2 + 10^2 - 2 × 4 × 10 × cos 9

D^2 = 16 + 100 - 80cos9

D^2 = 116 - 79.02

D = sqrt( 36.98)

D = 6.1 m

Therefore, the magnitude of the plane's total displacement is 6.1 km

At 1.70 atm, a sample of gas takes up 4.25L. If the pressure in the gas is increased to 2.40 atm, what will the new volume be?
ozzi

Answer:

This question is an example of Boyle's gas law which states that the pressure of a given mass of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume at a constant temperature. The formula for this gas law is:

P1·V1 = P2·V2

P1 = initial pressure = 1.7 atm

V1 = initial volume = 4.25 L

P2 = final pressure = 2.4 atm

V2 = final volume = ?

Rearrange the formula to isolate V2. Substitute the known data and solve.

V2 = P1·V1/P2

V2 = 1.7 atm·4.25 L/2.4 atm = 3.0 L to two significant figures

The new volume will be ~3.0 L.

Choose the best scientific reasoning for how objects with different amounts of mass can influence the rate at which they slow do
aev [14]

Answer:

The heavier something is, the harder it is to slow down. As such, higher amounts of mass result in a lower rate of slowing.

A car of mass 900 kg is traveling at 20 m/s when the brakes are applied. The car then comes to a complete stop in 5 s. What is t
ollegr [7]

Answer:

A. 36,000 W

Explanation:

m = mass of the car = 900 kg

v_{o} = Initial speed of the car = 20 m/s

v_{f} = Final speed of the car = 0 m/s

W = Work done by the brakes on the car

Magnitude of work done on the car by the brakes is same as the change in kinetic energy of the car.hence

W = (0.5) m (v_{o}^{2} - v_{f}^{2})\\W = (0.5) (900) ((20)^{2} - (0)^{2})\\W = 180000 J

t = time taken by the car to come to stop = 5 s

P = Average power produced by the car

Average power produced by the car is given as

P = \frac{W}{t} =\frac{180000}{5} \\P = 36000 W
