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

Answer the following question​
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

A) OA, AB, BC

B) 25m/s^2

C) see explanation

D) 25

E) Rest

Explanation:

From the Velocity time graph shown:

The positive slope = OA ; This is positive because, it is the point of uniform acceleration on the graph.

Constant slope = AB, the slope here is constant because, AB on the graph is the point of constant velocity.

-ve slope = BC

B) Acceleration of body in path OA.

Acceleration = change in Velocity / time

Acceleration = (150 - 0) / 6

Acceleration = 150/6 = 25m/s^2

C) Path AB is Parallel to the because it marks the period of constant velocity (that is Velocity does not increase or decrease during the time interval).

D) Length of BC

BC corresponds to the distance moved, that velocity / time

Velocity = 150 ; time = 6

Therefore Distance (BC) = 150/6 = 25

E.) Velocity =0 ; Hence body is at rest
