An airplane flies with a velocity of 55.0 m/s [35o N of W] with respect to the air (this is known as air speed). If the velocity

of the airplane according to an observer on the ground is 40.0 m/s [53o N of W], what was the wind velocity?

V - the wind velocity;
53° - 35° = 18°
v² = 55² + 40² - 2 · 55 · 40 · cos 18°
v² = 3025 + 1600 - 2 · 55 · 40 · 0.951
v² = 440.6
v = √440.6
v = 20.99 ≈ 21 m/s
Answer: The wind velocity is 21 m/s.

A large bottle contains 150 L of water, and is open to the atmosphere. If the bottle has a flat bottom with an area of 2 ft, cal
Yuri [45]

Answer:

Total pressure exerted at bottom =  119785.71 N/m^2

Explanation:

given data:

volume of water in bottle = 150 L = 0.35 m^3

Area of bottle = 2 ft^2

density of water = 1000 kg/m

Absolute pressure on bottom of bottle will be sum of atmospheric pressure and pressure due to water

Pressure due to water P = F/A

F, force exerted by water = mg

m, mass of water = density * volume

                             =  1000*0.350 = 350 kg

F  = 350*9.8 = 3430 N

A = 2 ft^2 = 0.1858 m^2  

so, pressure P = 3430/ 0.1858 = 18460.71 N/m^2

Atmospheric pressure

At sea level atmospheric pressure is 101325 Pa

Total pressure exerted at bottom  = 18460.71 + 101325 = 119785.71 N/m^2

Total pressure exerted at bottom =  119785.71 N/m^2
