Aplane is heading due north: its nose points towards the north direction, but its trajectory on the ground deviates from the north direction due to a sideways component of the wind. the plane is also climbing at the rate of 120 km/h (height increase per unit time). if the plane's airspeed is 470 km/h and there is a wind blowing 80 km/h to the northwest, what is the ground speed of the plane? use v to denote the plane's speed vector with respect to earth (i. e., the 3d velocity vector measured by the control tower's radars), vair to denote the air speed vector (i. e. the speed with respect to air measured by the pilots), and w to denote the wind speed vector. start by writing a relationship between these three velocity vectors, and write their components (known and unknown). use the available information to determine the unknowns. assume that the x axis is oriented toward the east, the y axis is oriented toward the north, and the z axis is vertical, oriented toward the sky. hints: the ground velocity vector is the projection onto the earth's surface of the plane's velocity vector v. you can picture the problem as a plane moving within an air volume, that is itself in translation with respect to earth because of the wind. once you have determined all the unknowns, enter the components of the vectors w, vair. and v within angle brackets typset with 'and> , using exact values or 4 decimal place accuracy: t w vair ground speed enter your answ er as a number (not a vector), using exact values or at least 4 decimal place accuracy.

The equation that describes a transverse wave on a string is y = (0.0120 m)sin[(927 rad/s)t - (3.00 rad/m)x] where y is the displacement of a string particle and x is the position of the particle on the string. the wave is traveling in the +x direction. what is the speed v of the wave?

Two thin 80.0- cm rods are oriented at right angles to each other. each rod has one end at the origin of the coordinates, and one of them extends along the x- axis while the other extends along the yaxis. the rod along the x- axis carries a charge of - 15.0 μ c distributed uniformly along its length, and the other rod carries 15.0 μ c uniformly over its length. find the magnitude and direction of the net electrical force that these two rods exert on an electron located at the point (40.0 cm, 40.0 cm).
