This plane has an air speed of 112 mph, and a ground speed of 113mph. Calculate the speed of the crosswind.

The mass of a muon is 207 times the electron mass; the average lifetime of muons at rest is 2.21 μs. in a certain experiment, muons moving through a laboratory are measured to have an average lifetime of 7.04 μs. for the moving muons, what are (a) β (b) k, and (c) p? the rest energy of the electron is 0.511 mev.

Use the profile illustrated for problem (1). assume that the layer of silty sand fill (sm) is placed over the entire site. estimate the thickness of the fill (h - in feet) that will cause the effective vertical stress at the center of the clay layer to increase by 517.5 pounds per square foot.

The heater element of a 120 v toaster is a 5.4 m length of nichrome wire, whose diameter is 0.48 mm. the resistivity of nichrome at the operating temperature of the toaster is 1.3 × 10-6 ω·m. the toaster is operated at a voltage of 120 v. (a) what is the power drawn by the toaster? (b) if the cost of electricity is 12 ¢ per kilowatt-hour, and it takes 2 minutes to toast bread, how much does it cost for toasted bread? (c) when the heater element is at room temperature, is the resistivity in the nichrome wire greater than, less than, or equal to it’s resistivity when at operating temperature? explain.
