An airplane pilot wishes to fly due west. A wind of 80.0 km/h (about 50 mi/h) is blowing toward the south. (a) If the airspeed o

f the plane (its speed in still air) is 320.0 km/h (about 200 mi/h), in which direction should the pilot head? (b) What is the speed of the plane over the ground? Draw a vector diagram.

Answer:

a) 75.5 degree relative to the North in north-west direction

b) 309.84 km/h

Explanation:

a)If the pilot wants to fly due west while there's wind of 80km/h due south. The north-component of the airplane velocity relative to the air must be equal to the wind speed to the south, 80km/h in order to counter balance it

So the pilot should head to the West-North direction at an angle of

cos(\alpha) = 80/320 = 0.25

\alpha = cos^{-1}(0.25) = 1.32 rad = 180\frac{1.32}{\pi} = 75.5^0 relative to the North-bound.

b) As the North component of the airplane velocity cancel out the wind south-bound speed. The speed of the plane over the ground would be the West component of the airplane velocity, which is

320sin(\alpha) = 320sin(75.5^0) = 309.84 km/h

Answer:

a) Ф=14°, north of west

b) 310 km/h

Explanation:

we have,

v_{p/G}, velocity of plane relative to the ground(west)

v_{p/A},velocity of plane relative to the air(320 km/h)

v_{A/G},velocity of air relative to the ground(80 km/h, due south).

                 v_{p/G}=v_{p/A}+v_{A/G}.........(1)

a)     sin(Ф)=\frac{v_{A/G}}{v_{p/A}}

                 =\frac{80km/h}{320km/h}              

Ф=14°, north of west

b)    using Pythagorean theorem

v_{p/G}=\sqrt{v^2_{p/A}+v^2_{A/G}}

v_{p/G}=310 km/h

<span>Without friction, there will be undamped simple harmonic motion. The force of the spring is proportional to the distance from the equilibrium point. The period of oscillation will be independent of the amplitude.

I have a picture of the question I need help with,
eduard

Given:

The initial velocity of the object, v=30 m/s

a_t=0

a_c≠0

The time period is Δt.

To find:

The right conclusion among the given choices.

Explanation:

a_t represents the tangential accleration on the object and a_c represents the centripetal acceleration on the object.

The centripetal acceleration is the acceleration that keeps the object in its circular path. The centripetal force only changes the direction of the velocity and not the magnitude.

Thus the magnitude of the velocity of the object remains the same after a time interval of Δt. But the direction of the velocity of the object will be changed and will be unknown after Δt seconds.

Final answer:

Thus the object will be traveling at 30 m/s in some unknown direction.

Therefore, the correct answer is option a.

Which object will have greater acceleration? Why?​
dexar [7]

Answer:

Object D

Explanation:

Use Newton's Second Law to determine the acceleration that each object has.

  • F = ma

The force applied in both cases is 50 N, but the mass for object C and object D is different.

Let's start with object C first:

  • F = ma
  • 50 N = 10 kg · a
  • 50 = 10a
  • 5 = a

The acceleration object C undergoes is 5 m/s².  

Now let's calculate object D next:

  • F = ma
  • 50 N = 2 kg * a
  • 50 = 2a
  • 25 = a

The acceleration object D undergoes is 25 m/s².

Object D has greater acceleration because it has a smaller mass. The object with a smaller mass will accelerate more in order to satisfy Newton's 2nd Law.

The displacement of a wave traveling in the positive x-direction is y(x, t)|= (3.5 cm)cos(2.7x − 92t), where x is in m and t is
zubka84 [21]

Answer

Given,

y(x, t) = (3.5 cm) cos(2.7 x − 92 t)

comparing the given equation with general equation

y(x,t) = A cos(k x - ω t)

 A = 3.5 cm  , k = 2.7 rad/m    , ω = 92 rad/s

we know,

a) ω =2πf

   f = 92/ 2π

   f = 14.64 Hz

b) Wavelength of the wave

 we now, k = 2π/λ

      2π/λ = 2.7

      λ = 2 π/2.7

      λ = 2.33 m

c) Speed of wave

     v = ν λ

     v = 14.64 x 2.33

     v = 34.11 m/s

Neurons in our bodies carry weak currents that produce detectable magnetic fields. A technique called magnetoencephalography, or
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

I = (1.80 × 10⁻¹⁰) A

Explanation:

From Biot Savart's law, the magnetic field formula is given as

B = (μ₀I)/(2πr)

B = magnetic field = (1.0 × 10⁻¹⁵) T

μ₀ = magnetic constant = (4π × 10⁻⁷) H/m

r = 3.6 cm = 0.036 m

(1.0 × 10⁻¹⁵) = (4π × 10⁻⁷ × I)/(2π × 0.036)

4π × 10⁻⁷ × I = 1.0 × 10⁻¹⁵ × 2π × 0.036

I = (1.80 × 10⁻¹⁰) A

Hope this Helps!!!
