Answer:

1/60 mps

Explanation:

We would first have to divide 60 by 60 because there is 60mins per hour to get 1mpm. After that we would have to divide 1 by 60 because there are 60 secs in a min. So our final answer after doing 1/60 would be a fraction.

Answer:

Explanation:

First find the electrical wattage

W = I^2 * R

R = 12 ohms

I = 2 amps

Wattage = 2^2 * 12

Wattage = 4* 12

Wattage = 48 watts.

Now you need to use the power formula

Work = Power * Time

Work = ?

Power = 48 watts

Time = 3 minutes = 3 * 60 = 180 seconds.

Work = 48 * 180

Work = 8640 J

That's C

If a plane has an airspeed of 40 m/s and is experiencing a crosswind of 30 m/s, what is its ground speed in m/s?

Anon25 [30]

<h2>Answer:50 $ms^{-1}$ </h2>

Explanation:

Let $v_{a}$ be the airspeed.

Let $v_{w}$ be the cross wind speed.

We know that,ground speed is the vector sum of airspeed and cross wind speed and airspeed is perpendicular to cross wind speed.

If $v_{1}$ and $v_{2}$ are two perpendicular vectors,the resultant vector has the magnitude $\sqrt{|v|_{1}^{2}+|v|_{2}^{2}}$

Given,

$v_{a}=40ms^{-1}\\v_{c}=30ms^{-1}$

So,the ground speed is $\sqrt{40^{2}+30^{2}}=\sqrt{2500}=50ms^{-1}$

In an attempt to reduce the extraordinarily long travel times for voyaging to distant stars, some people have suggested travelin

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

a) $v=0.999124c$

b) $E=7.566*10^{22}$

c) $E_a=760 times\ larger$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Distance to Betelgeuse $d_b=430ly$

Mass of Rocket $M_r=20000$

Total Time in years traveled $T_d=36years$

Total energy used by the United States in the year 2000 $E_{2000}=1.0*10^20$

Generally the equation of speed of rocket v mathematically given by

$v=\frac{2d}{\triangle t}$

$v=860ly/ \triangle t$

where

$\triangle t=\frac{\triangle t'}{(\sqrt{1-860/ \triangle t)^2}}$

$\triangle t=\frac{36}{(\sqrt{1-860/ \triangle t)^2}}$

$\triangle t=\sqrt{(860)^2+(36)^2}$

$\triangle t=860.7532$

Therefore

$v=\frac{860ly}{ 860.7532}$

$v=0.999124c$

Generally the equation of the energy E required to attain prior speed mathematically given by

$E=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-(v/c)^2} }-1(20000kg)(3*10^8m/s)^2$

$E=7.566*10^{22}$

c)Generally the equation of the energy $E_a$ required to accelerate the rocket mathematically given by

$E_a=\frac{E}{E_{2000}}$

$E_a=\frac{7.566*10^{22}}{1.0*10^{20}}$

$E_a=760 times\ larger$

Two resistors, A and B, are connected in series to a 6.0 V battery. A voltmeter connected across resistor A measures a potential

mestny [16]

Answer:

Resistance of resistor A = 6.0 Ω and resistance of resistor B = 3.0 Ω

Explanation:

When the two resistors are in series, let V₁ = voltage in resistor A and R₁ = resistance of resistor A and V₂ = voltage in resistor B and R₂ = resistance of resistor B.

Given that V₁ + V₂ = 6.0 V and V₁ = 4.0 V,

V₂ = 6.0 V - V₁ = 6.0 V - 4.0 V = 2.0 V

Also, let the current in series be I.

So, V₁ = IR₁ and V₂ = IR₂

I = V₁/R₁ and I = V₂/R₂

equating both expressions, we have

V₁/R₁ = V₂/R₂

4.0 V/R₁ = 2.0 V/R₂

dividing through by 2.0 V, we have

2/R₁ = 1/R₂

taking the reciprocal, we have

R₂ = R₁/2

R₁ = 2R₂

From the parallel connection, let V₁ = voltage in resistor A and R₁ = resistance of resistor A and V₂ = voltage in resistor B and R₂ = resistance of resistor B. Since it is parallel, V₁ = V₂ = V = 6.0 V

Also, V₂ = I₂R₂ where I₂ = current in resistor B = 2.0 A and R₂ = resistance of resistor B

So, R₂ = V₂/I₂

= 6.0 V/2.0 A

= 3.0 Ω

R₁ = 2R₂

= 2(3.0 Ω)

= 6.0 Ω

So, resistance of resistor A = 6.0 Ω and resistance of resistor B = 3.0 Ω

An airplane maintains a speed of 585 km/h relative to the air it is flying through as it makes a trip to a city 815 km away to t

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

a) t = 1.47 h b) t = 1.32 h

Explanation:

a) In this problem the plane and the wind are in the same North-South direction, whereby the vector sum is reduced to the scalar sum (ordinary). Let's calculate the total speed

v = $v_{f}$ f - $v_{w}$

v = 585 -32.1

v = 552.9 km / h

We use the speed ratio in uniform motion

v = x / t

t = x / v

t = 815 /552.9

t = 1.47 h

b) We repeat the calculation, but this time the wind is going in the direction of the plane

v= $v_{f}$ f - $v_{w}$

v 585 + 32.1

v = 617.1 km / h

t = 815 /617.1

t = 1.32 h
