A hot–air balloon is moving at a speed of 10.0 meters/second in the +x–direction. The balloonist throws a brass ball in the +x–d

irection at a velocity of +4 meters/second with respect to himself. If the ball lands after 30 seconds, about how far does it land horizontally from the point at which it was released?
A. 120 meters
B. 125 meters
C. 300 meters
D. 420 meters

Answer:

Option (D) is correct.

Explanation:

The balloon lands horizontally at a distance of 420 m from a point where it as released.

Velocity of air balloon along +X axis =10 m/s

velocity of ball=4 m/s along + X axis

the velocity of balloon gets added to the velocity of ball. So the resultant velocity of the balloon=10+4 = 14 m/s

time taken= 30 s

The distance traveled is given by d= v t

d= 14 (30)

d= 420 m

Thus the balloon lands horizontally at a distance of 420 m from a point where it as released.

Oxana [17]

Answer:

5 mg, 5\cdot 10^{-3}g

Explanation:

First of all, let's rewrite the mass in grams using scientific notation.

we have:

m = 0.005 g

To rewrite it in scientific notation, we must count by how many digits we have to move the dot on the right - in this case three. So in scientific notation is

m=5\cdot 10^{-3}g

If  we want to convert into milligrams, we must remind that

1 g = 1000 mg

So we can use the proportion

1 g : 1000 mg = 0.005 g : x

and we find

x=\frac{(1000 mg)(0.005 g)}{1 g}=5 mg

An underground tunnel has two openings, with one opening a few meters higher than the other. If air moves past the higher openin
klasskru [66]

Answer:

There would be a pressure drop in the direction of the higher opening. This will force air to move in from the lower opening and force it to leave through the higher opening. This will create a convectional movement of air, cooling and ventilating the tunnel.

Explanation:

This is in accordance with bernoulli's law of fluid flow which states that the pressure exerted by a moving fluid is lesser than it would exert if it were at rest.
