Answer:

a) 3.18 degree.

Explanation:

tan Ф =  v sinα /( u + v cos α )

v is velocity of the air , u is velocity of pilot , α is angle between u and v and Ф is drift angle of the pilot

tan Ф = 18 sin ( 290 - 224) / 300 + 18 cos ( 290 - 224 )

           = 18 sin 66 / ( 300 + 18 cos 66)

             = 18 x .91 / (300 + 18 x .40)

               = 16.38 / 305.4 = .0536

       Ф = 3 .18 degree.

A bird flying straight upward at 5 m/s drops a berry when it is 300 m above the ground. How fast is the berry going when it hits
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

v=77.62 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

h= - 300 m

speed of the bird ,u= 5 m/s

Lets take Speed of the berry when it hit the ground = v m/s

we know that ,if object is moving upward

v² = u² - 2 g h

u=Initial speed

v=Final speed

h=Height

Now by putting the values

v² = u² - 2 g h

v² = 5² - 2 x 10 x (-300)                ( take g = 10 m/s²)

v² =25 + 20 x 300

v² ==25 + 6000

v² =6025

v=77.62 m/s

Therefore the final speed of the berry will be 77.62 m/s.

How does the sun's energy most directly influence precipitation in an area?
topjm [15]
The sun's energy influences climate in various ways. For example the latitudes at the equator receive more energy from the sun and therefore have warmer temperatures, On the other hand the sun's energy influences precipitation in a climate by driving the water cycle which determines precipitation.The sun is what makes the water cycle take place. That is the sun provides energy or heat to the earth; the heat causes liquid and frozen water to evaporate into water vapor gas, which rises high in the sky to form clouds ( precipitation), that in turn give us rain
