The speed resulting from the plane is (3) 226 m/s

Reasoning:

We can determine the plane's resultant speed using the Pythagorean Theorem because the two speeds form a right angle (creating a right triangle).

Thus, the computation is as follows:

ResultantSpeed=\sqrt{VerticalSpeed^{2}+HorizontalSpeed^{2}}\\\\ResultantSpeed=\sqrt{(220\frac{m}{s})^{2}+50\frac{m}{s})^{2}

ResulntantSpeed=\sqrt{48400\frac{m^{2} }{s^{2} }+2500\frac{m^{2} }{s^{2} } } \\\\ResultantSpeed=\sqrt{50900\frac{m^{2} }{s^{2} }}=226\frac{m}{s}

Consequently, the plane's resultant speed is (3) 226 m/s

Have a wonderful day!

A closed system of mass 10 kg undergoes a process during which there is energy transfer by work from the system of 0.147 kJ per
Softa [3030]

Result: -50.005 kJ

Details:

Provided Data

mass of the system = 10 kg

work done = 0.147 kJ/kg

Elevation change (\Delta h)=-50 m

initial speed (v_1)=15 m/s

Final Speed (v_2)=30 m/s

Specific internal Energy (\Delta U)=-5 kJ/kg

according to the first Law of thermodynamics

Q-W=\Delta H

\Delta H=\Delta KE+ \Delta PE +\Delta U

where KE represents kinetic energy

PE indicates potential energy

U denotes internal Energy

\Delta H=\frac{m(v_2^2-v_1^2)}{2}+mg(\Delta h)+\Delta U

Q=W+\Delta KE+ \Delta PE +\Delta U

Q=0.147\times 10+\frac{10\cdot (30^2-15^2)}{2}+10\cdot 9.81\cdot (-5)-5\times 10

Q = 1.47 + 3.375 - 4.850 - 50

Q = -50.005 kJ

A standard baseball has a circumference of approximately 23 cm . if a baseball had the same mass per unit volume as a neutron or
Softa [3030]

Answer:

 Baseball mass:  m_b=3.992*10^{14}kg  

Explanation:

 Circumference of a baseball is calculated using 2πr = 23 cm

 Thus, the radius comes out to be 3.66 cm, which equals 3.66*10^{-2} m

 The mass density of the baseball matches that of a neutron or proton.

 Proton mass = 10^{-27} kg  

 Proton diameter = 10^{-15} m

 Proton radius =  5*10^{-16} m

 Volume of the baseball is \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3

 Now by substituting all values into the mass per unit volume equation for the baseball, we get:  

         \frac{m_b}{\frac{4}{3}\pi *(3.66*10^{-2})^3} =\frac{10^{-27}}{\frac{4}{3}\pi *(5*10^{-16})^3}

         \frac{m_b}{(3.66*10^{-2})^3} =\frac{10^{-27}}{(5*10^{-16})^3}  

         m_b=3.992*10^{14}kg

       Therefore, the baseball mass amounts to m_b=3.992*10^{14}kg

Sav [3153]
The force that the car applies on the truck will be 6000 N in the reverse direction.

As per the information provided, the car's mass is one-fourth that of the truck

The truck exerts a force of 6000 N onto the car

We aim to determine the force that the car exerts on the truck

According to Newton's third law, every action has an equal and opposite reaction

Hence, the force from the car on the truck is 6000 N in the opposite direction
