1. A plane is flying from Indianapolis to Los Angeles with an air speed of 211 km/hr towards the west. The air current that day

is blowing at 12 km/h towards the east. Find the speed of the plane relative to the ground.
2. A tug boat called SS Walnut is traveling upstream with a still water speed of 22 km/h in a river with a current of 5.0 km/h. What is the velocity of the boat relative to an object on the shore?

3. Dante flies his jet plane from Spokane, WA to Cincinnati OH. The plane flies towards the east with a ground speed of 740 km/h. The wind that day is blowing from the west with a speed of 38 km/h. What is the jet's air speed?

4. A kayaker traveling downstream is pulled out of his kayak in a river with a current of 31 km/h. The Kayaker continues downstream. A hiker on the shore observes the kayaker to be swimming at 33 km/h. What is the kayaker's still water velocity?

5. A prop engine plane takes off from the ground and reaches its cruising altitude and air speed of 216 km/h towards the east. At this altitude the easterly wind speed is measured at 67 m/s.

a. What is the plane's ground speed while flying at this altitude?

b. What is the distance this plane has flown after 7.0 hours at its cruising altitude?

Answer:

1.199km/h towards west

2.17km/h towards upstream direction

3.702km/h towards east

4.2km/h towards downstream direction

5.a.149km/h towards east

   b.1043km

Explanation:

1.V p,e = Vp,w + Vw,e

           = 211km/h-12km/h

           =199km/h towards west

2. Vb,o=Vb,r+Vr,o

    Vb,o=22-5km/h

          =17km/h towards upstream direction

3.Vj,w= Vj,e + Ve,w

   Vj,w = 740-38km/h

          = 702km/h towards east

4.Vk,r= Vk,e+ Ve,r

   Vk,r=33 - 31km/h

        =2km/h towards downstream direction

5.a.Vp,e=Vp,w +Vw,e

      Vp,e=216-67km/h

          =149km/h towards east

b. distance =speed * time

                 = 149km/h * 7h

                 =1043km

[V p,e-velocity of plane relative to earth(ground)]

[p-plane ,w-wind ,e-earth, b-boat, r-river, o-object, j-jet, k-kayaker,]

PLEASE HELP ASAP ! 37 POINTS !!!!
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

3. all of the above

4. d=m/v

5. gas has well separated particles with no particular arrangement

liquid has particles close together but still with no particular arrangement

and solid has particles that are tightly packed, usually in a regular pattern

6. (idk what number it is but)

the density of the rock is 2.4 g/ml

d=m/v so d=12/v according to the question the mass is 12

to find volume subtract 20-15 because before the rock was 15 and after the rock was 20, so then you get 5 for volume

d=12/5 and when you calculate that, you would get 2.4g/ml ; hope this helped :-)

julia-pushkina [17]
These are the characteristics that apply:

 - In a solution taste sour: which is consequence of the H+ concentration.

- Corrode metals: the H+ ion reacts with the metal producing a salt and water

-Produce hydronium ion in solution: as per the Bronsted - Lowry definition an acid is a substance that donates a proton, H+. This proton will react with H2O to form H3O+ (hydronium), as per this scheme: 

HA + H2O --> A(-) + H3O(+)

A man is sitting on a chair with wheels. He grabs a 2.1 kg book from the desk and throws
geniusboy [140]

The speed of the man and the chair after the book is thrown is 0.2 m/s.

The given parameters:

  • <em>mass of the book, m₁ = 2.1 kg</em>
  • <em>speed of the book, u₁ = 7.2 m/s</em>
  • <em>mass of the man, M = 70 kg</em>
  • <em>mass of the book, m = 9.2 kg</em>

<em />

The total mass of the man and the book is calculated as follows;

m₂ = 70 kg + 9.2 kg

m₂ = 79.2 kg

The speed of the man and the chair after the book is thrown is determined by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum;

m_1 u_1 = m_2u_2\\\\u_2 = \frac{m_1u_1}{m_2} \\\\u_2 = \frac{2.1 \times 7.2}{79.2} \\\\u_2 = 0.2 \ m/s

Thus, the speed of the man and the chair after the book is thrown is 0.2 m/s.
