An airline pilot begins a trip to duluth from an airport located 1500 km south of duluth. her air speed is 260 m/s, but a wind blows from west to east at 40 m/s that takes her off course if she flies directly north. she has the choice of heading slightly westward so that the wind causes her to end up at duluth or heading due north until she reaches a position directly east of duluth and then heading west into the wind to duluth.

which route takes a shorter time interval?

a) the first route will be shorter.
b) the second route will be shorter.
c) the routes are equal to each other.

In a wind tunnel the speed changes as the cross sectional area of the tunnel changes. if the speed in a 6' x 6' square test section is 100 mph, what was the speed upstream of the test section where the tunnel measured 20' x 20'? use conservation of mass and assume incompressible flow. conservation of mass requires that as the flow moves through a path or a duct the product of the density, velocity and cross sectional area must remain constant; i.e., that ova-constant. a model is being tested in a wind tunnel at a speed of 100 mph if the flow in the test section is at sea level standard conditions, what is the pressure at the model's stagnation point? (a) the tunnel speed is being measured by a pitot-static tube connected to a u- tube manometer. what is the reading on that manometer in inches of water? (b) at one point on the model a pressure of 2058 psf is measured. what is the local airspeed at that point?

An engineer designs a roller coaster so that a car travels horizontally for 162 ft, then climbs 127 ft at an angle of 31.0° above the horizontal. it then moves 127 ft at an angle of 46.0° below the horizontal. if we take the initial horizontal motion of the car to be along the +x-axis, what is the car's displacement? (give the magnitude of your answer, in ft, to at least four significant figures and give the direction of your answer in degrees counterclockwise from the +x-axis.)

Will give brainliest! which statement best describes the similarities between fundamental forces? electromagnetic and strong nuclear forces influence the interaction between charged particles within an atom. gravitational and magnetic forces are both types of charges that occur in nature. nuclear and magnetic forces are both related to mass and weight. strong nuclear force is most like electrical force because they are both related to distance.
