Answer:

Relative to the ground, the velocity of the aircraft is 240 km/hr

Explanation:

Relative velocity is different from normal velocity;

When 2 objects are moving in opposite directions towards each other, they will appear to be faster than they actually are;

This is known as the relative velocity;

The information tells us we have the aircraft moving 320 km/hr northwards relative to the wind;

The wind is in the opposite direction at 80 km/hr;

R = relative velocity of the aircraft

v = actual velocity of the aircraft

w = velocity of the wind

R = v + w

Note: if the wind was moving in the same direction, the formula would be R = v - w

320 = v + 80

v = 320 - 80

v = 240

The velocity relative to the ground is simply the actual velocity as the ground doesn't move;

So, relative to the ground, the velocity of the aircraft is simply 240 km/hr

<span>The correct answer should be B) 63.55. That's because the most precise number is 63.546, but you would write 55 because 46 is rounded that way in the equation. The others are a bit higher, while E is a completely different element, Iodine. This isn't the most precise piece of data because in reality there would be a slight differentiation of +- 0,003u</span>

Suppose a plot of inverse wavelength vs frequency has slope equal to 0.119, what is the speed of sound traveling in the tube to
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

8.40 m/s

Explanation:

Slope of the plot is 0.119

Slope of a plot is given by the change in y direction divided by the change in x direction

Here, the y axis represents inverse wavelength and the x axis represents frequency.

f = Frequency (Hz, assumed)

v = Phase velocity (m/s, assumed)

λ = Wavelength (m, assumed)

So, slope

m=\frac{\frac{1}{\lambda}}{f}

Now,

\lambda=\frac{v}{f}\\\Rightarrow \lambda^{-1}=\frac{f}{v}

\\\Rightarrow m=\frac{\frac{f}{v}}{f}\\\Rightarrow 0.119=\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow v=\frac{1}{0.119}\\\Rightarrow v=8.40\ m/s

The speed of sound travelling in the tube is 8.40 m/s

In an experiment, a variable, position-dependent force F(x)F(x) is exerted on a block of mass 1.0kg1.0kg that is moving on a hor
leonid [27]

Answer:

The function F(x) for 0 < x < 5, the block's initial velocity, and the value of F(f).

(C) is correct option.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of block = 1.0 kg

Dependent force = F(x)

Frictional force = F(f)

Suppose, the following information would students need to test the hypothesis,

(A) The function F(x) for 0 < x < 5 and the value of F(f).

(B) The function a(t) for the time interval of travel and the value of F(f).

(C) The function F(x) for 0 < x < 5, the block's initial velocity, and the value of F(f).

(D) The function a(t) for the time interval of travel, the time it takes the block to move 5 m, and the value of F(f).

(E) The block's initial velocity, the time it takes the block to move 5 m, and the value of F(f).

We know that,

The work done by a force is given by,

W=\int_{x_{0}}^{x_{f}}{F(x)\ dx}.....(I)

Where, F(x) = net force

We know, the net force is the sum of forces.

So, \sum{F}=ma

According to question,

We have two forces F(x) and F(f)

So, the sum of these forces are

F(x)+(-F(f))=ma

Here, frictional force is negative because F(f) acts against the F(x)

Now put the value in equation (I)

W=\int_{x_{0}}^{x_{f}}{(F(x)-F(f))dx}

We need to find the value of \int_{x_{0}}^{x_{f}}{(F(x)-F(f))dx}

Using newton's second law

\int_{x_{0}}^{x_{f}}{(F(x)-F(f))dx}=\int_{x_{0}}^{x_{f}}{ma\ dx}...(II)

We know that,

Acceleration is rate of change of velocity.

a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}

Put the value of a in equation (II)

\int_{x_{0}}^{x_{f}}{(F(x)-F(f))dx}=\int_{x_{0}}^{x_{f}}{m\dfrac{dv}{dt}dx}

\int_{x_{0}}^{x_{f}}{(F(x)-F(f))dx}=\int_{v_{0}}^{v_{f}}{mv\ dv}

\int_{x_{0}}^{x_{f}}{(F(x)-F(f))dx}=\dfrac{mv_{f}^2}{2}+\dfrac{mv_{0}^2}{2}

Now, the work done by the net force on the block is,

W=\dfrac{mv_{f}^2}{2}+\dfrac{mv_{0}^2}{2}

The work done by the net force on the block is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the block.

Hence, The function F(x) for 0 < x < 5, the block's initial velocity, and the value of F(f).

(C) is correct option.
