A plane initially traveling at 200 m/s due west experiences a 10 m/s head wind coming from the opposite direction. A). What will

be the relative velocity of the plane from the frame of reference of a bystander in the ground looking at the plane when it experiences the head wind current? B) Will the plane be late, on time or early after the wind current?

Ok so it would be late and the relative velocity would be 190 m/s because 200 m/s - 10 m/s is 190 m/s. Hope this helps.

Sergio039 [100]
The answer to the blank above is 20. The speed limit given provided that you cannot see the tracks for 400 ft in both directions is always 20 mph. Basically, this 20 mph is decided based upon the traffic laws in order to avoid road casualties. Since it is "uncontrolled railroad crossing", the minimum speed should be implemented to slow down for the purpose of traffic calming measures. Other than this, the 20 mph is also applicable in narrowing roads as well as speed humps.

A car drives around a racetrack for 30 seconds. what do you need to know to calculate the average velocity of the car?
boyakko [2]
The time is given, and you want to find the average velocity. To do this, you need to know the distance covered by the driver around the racetrack in that 30 seconds. You divide this by the time, then you will obtain the average velocity in units of, say meters per second.

A box sliding on a horizontal frictionless surface runs into a fixed spring, compressing it a distance x1 from its relaxed posit
inn [45]

Answer:twice of initial value

Explanation:

Given

spring compresses x_1 distance for some initial speed

Suppose v is the initial speed and k be the spring constant

Applying conservation of energy

kinetic energy converted into spring Elastic potential energy

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=\dfrac{1}{2}kx_1^2----1

When speed doubles

\dfrac{1}{2}m(2v)^2=\dfrac{1}{2}kx_2^2----2

divide 1 and 2

\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{x_1^2}{x_2^2}

x_2=2x_1

Therefore spring compresses twice the initial value

Match each label to the boundary it describes. convergent boundary new crust forms transform boundary crust submerges into the m
Paraphin [41]

The answers would be:

CONVERGENT boundary - Crust submerges into the mantle

TRANSFORM boundary - neither forms nor submerges

DIVERGENT boundary - new crust forms

If you'd like to know more about the different boundaries, read on:

Convergent boundaries occur when two plates move TOWARDS each other. The event where crust submerges into the mantle is called <em><u>subduction</u></em> and this occurs when an oceanic plate and a continental plate collide. The oceanic plate is more dense and thinner than the continental plate, so it slides under it.

Transform boundaries occur when two plates slide against each other. They move slide side by side, so nothing is formed nor do they go under each other. Although, this type of boundaries create strong earthquakes.

Lastly, divergent boundaries occur when two plates move apart. The separation creates a way for magma to come up. New crust is formed when the magma that seeps out is cooled by its cooler surroundings. This is observed in the mid oceanic ridge.

A student lifts a set of books off a table and places them in the upper shelf of a book case which is 2 meters above the table.
AfilCa [17]
The work done is the product between the intensity of the force applied F, the amount of the displacement d of the book and the cosine of the angle \theta between the direction of the force and the direction of the displacement:
W=Fd \cos \theta
In our problem, the student is lifting the book, so he is applying a force directed upward, and the book is moving upward, so F and d are parallel and therefore the angle is zero, so \cos \theta = \cos 0=1
Therefore, the work done is
W=Fd=(5 N)(2 m)=10 J
