An airplane pilot wishes to fly directly westward. According to the weather bureau, a wind of 75.0 km/hour is blowing southward.

The speed of the plane relative to the air (called the air speed) as measured by instruments aboard the plane is 310 km/hour . In which direction should the pilot head?

Answer:

The speed of the plane relative to the ground is 300.79 km/h.

Explanation:

Given that,

Speed of wind = 75.0 km/hr

Speed of plane relative to the air = 310 km/hr

Suppose, determine the speed of the plane relative to the ground

We need to calculate the angle

Using formula of angle

$\sin\theta=\dfrac{v'}{v}$

Where, v'=speed of wind

v= speed of plane

Put the value into the formula

$\sin\theta=\dfrac{75}{310}$

$\theta=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{75}{310})$

$\theta=14.0^{\circ}$

We need to calculate the resultant speed

Using formula of resultant speed

$\cos\theta=\dfrac{v''}{v}$

Put the value into the formula

$\cos14=\dfrac{v''}{310}$

$v''=\cos14\times310$

$v''=300.79\ km/h$

Hence, The speed of the plane relative to the ground is 300.79 km/h.

A ball on a string travels once around a circle with a circumference of 2.0 m. The tension in the string is 5.0 N. how much work

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:0

Explanation:

Given

circumference of circle is 2 m

Tension in the string $T=5 N$

$2\pi r=2$

$r=\frac{2}{2\pi }=\frac{1}{\pi }=0.318 m$

In this case Force applied i.e. Tension is Perpendicular to the Displacement therefore angle between Tension and displacement is $90^{\circ}$

$W=\int\vec{F}\cdot \vec{r}$

$W=\int Fdr\cos 90$

$W=0$

A densly wound cylindrical coil has 210 turns per meter, a 5 cm radius, and carries 38 mA. What is the magnitude of the uniform

kaheart [24]

Answer:

(a). The magnitude of the uniform magnetic field is 10.02 μT

(b). The the magnitude of the total magnetic field is 10.78 μT.

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of turns = 210

Radius = 5 cm

Current = 38 mA

Current in the wire = 500 mA

We need to calculate the magnetic field inside a coil

Using formula of magnetic field

$B=\mu_{0} ni$

Put the value into the formula

$B_{c}=4\pi\times10^{-7}\times210\times38\times10^{-3}$

$B_{c}=0.0000100\ T$

$B_{c}=10.02\times10^{-6}\ T$

Now a straight wire is inserted into the coil that carries 500 mA. It travels down the central axis of the coil

Distance $d=\dfrac{5}{2}$

$d=2.5\ cm$

We need to calculate the magnetic field from the straight wire

Using formula of magnetic field

$B_{w}=\dfrac{\mu_{0}I}{2\pi d}$

Put the value into the formula

$B_{w}=\dfrac{4\pi\times10^{-7}\times500\times10^{-3}}{2\times\pi\times2.5\times10^{-2}}$

$B_{w}=4.0\times10^{-6}\ T$

This field is perpendicular to the wire.

The magnitude of magnetic field is

$B=\sqrt{B_{c}^2+B_{w}^2}$

$B=\sqrt{(10.02\times10^{-6})^2+(4.0\times10^{-6})^2}$

$B=0.00001078\ T$

$B=10.78\times10^{-6}\ T$

$B=10.78\ \mu\ T$

Hence, (a). The magnitude of the uniform magnetic field is 10.02 μT

(b). The the magnitude of the total magnetic field is 10.78 μT.

If the intensity level by 15 identical engines in a garage is 100 dB, what is the intensity level generated by each one of these

insens350 [35]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Sound Intensity.

By definition the intensity is given by the equation

$\beta = 10Log(\frac{I}{I_0})$

Where,

I = Intensity of Sound

$I_0$ = Intensity of Reference

At this case we have that 15 engines produces 15 times the reference intensity, that is

$I= 15I_0$

And the total mutual intensity is 100 dB, so we should

$\beta = 100-10*log(\frac{15I_0}{I_0})$

$\beta = 100-10*log(15)$

$\beta = 100-11.76$

$\beta = 88.23dB$

Therefore each one of these engines produce D. 88dB.
