We have that the speed over the ground of a mosquito flying 2 m/s relative to the air against a 2 m/s headwind is

X=0m/s

From the question we are told that

mosquito flying 2 m/s

against a 2 m/s headwind

Generally

The speed over the ground is the Flight Speed minus resistance speed

Generally the equation for the  speed over the ground  is mathematically given as

X=Flight Speed-resistance speed

Therefore

X=2-2

X=0m/s

Answer:

The speed of mosquito over the ground is $4m/sec$.

Explanation:

• Relative velocity is defined as the velocity of an object B in the rest frame of another object A.

• To find the speed of mosquito over the ground, use this formula:

$${V_{{M \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {M A}} \right.

\kern-\nulldelimiterspace} A}}} = {V_{{M \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {M G}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} G}}} + {V_{{A \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {A G}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} G}}}$$

Where , $A$ represents air,$M$ represents mosquito and $G$ represents ground, thus ${V_{{A \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {A G}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} G}}}$ represents velocity of air with respect to ground and so on.

\\${V_{{M \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {M A}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} A}}} = 2m/sec$ \\${V_{{A \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {A G}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} G}}} =  - 2m/sec$

• Placing the value of the given  in the above formula.

& {V_{{M \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {M A}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} A}}} = {V_{{M \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {M G}} \right.

\kern-\nulldelimiterspace} G}}} + {V_{{A \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {A G}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} G}}}  \\  &  \Rightarrow 2 = {V_{{M \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {M G}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} G}}} - 2  \\

 &  \Rightarrow {V_{{M \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {M G}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} G}}} = 4m/sec \\\end{align}\]$$

• Hence, the speed of mosquito over the ground is $4m/sec$.

Given that ethylene has a λmax of 175nm, butadiene has a λmax of 220nm, and 2-methyl-1,3-butadiene has a λmax or 215nm, what is
Vika [28.1K]

The λmax of 2,3,4-trimethylhexatriene is 280 nm.

Ethylene has a λmax of 175nm.

Butadiene has a λmax of 220nm.

2-methyl-1,3-butadiene has a λmax or 215nm.

1,3,5-hexatriene has a λmax of 258nm.

Woodward's rules, sometimes known as Woodward-Fieser rules (after Louis Fieser) and named after Robert Burns Woodward, are a number of sets of empirically developed principles that aim to forecast the wavelength of the absorption maximum (max) in an ultraviolet-visible spectrum of a certain molecule.

By using the Woodward Fieser rule,

R- (Alkyl Group) .... +5 nm = 5 × 2 = 10

RO- (Alkoxy Group) .. +6 = 6 × 2 = 12

Adding 22nm to the λmax of 1,3,5-hexatriene as it has 2 alkyl groups and 2 alkoxy groups to form 2,3,4-trimethylhexatriene.

The λmax of 2,3,4-trimethylhexatriene is 280 nm.

A 3.00 kg object is moving in the XY plane, with its x and y coordinates given by x = 5t³ !1 and y = 3t ² + 2, where x and y are
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The net force acting on this object is 180.89 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 3.00 kg

Coordinate of position of x= 5t^3+1

Coordinate of position of y=3t^2+2

Time = 2.00 s

We need to calculate the acceleration

a = \dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}

For x coordinates

x=5t^3+1

On differentiate w.r.to t

\dfrac{dx}{dt}=15t^2+0

On differentiate again w.r.to t

\dfrac{d^2x}{dt^2}=30t

The acceleration in x axis at 2 sec

a = 60i

For y coordinates

y=3t^2+2

On differentiate w.r.to t

\dfrac{dy}{dt}=6t+0

On differentiate again w.r.to t

\dfrac{d^2y}{dt^2}=6

The acceleration in y axis at 2 sec

a = 6j

The acceleration is

a=60i+6j

We need to calculate the net force

F = ma

F = 3.00\times(60i+6j)

F=180i+18j

The magnitude of the force

|F|=\sqrt{(180)^2+(18)^2}

|F|=180.89\ N

Hence, The net force acting on this object is 180.89 N.
