When a jet plane is cruising at high altitude, the flight attendants have more of a "hill" to climb as they walk forward along t

he aisle than when the plane is cruising at a lower altitude. why does the pilot have to fly with a greater "angle of attack" at high altitude than at low?

Answer:

Probably because the Bernoulli effect (lift) is insufficient in thinner air to keep the plane aloft - increasing the angle of attack will increase the lift on the airplane

A drag racer starts her car from rest and accelerates at 5.5 m/s2 for the entire distance of 523 m. How long did it take the car
ANEK [815]

Answer:

t = 13.7 s or t = 14 s with proper significant figures

Explanation:

The initial speed is 0 m/s since the car starts from rest, acceleration is 5.5 m/s2 and distance is 523 m.

Since we have initial speed, acceleration and distance we can use the following formula to find the time. We can now use algebra to work out our answer.

d = vt + \frac{1}{2}at²

523 = (0)t + (\frac{1}{2})(5.5)t²

523 = 2.8t²

186.8 = t²

13.7 s = t

(t = 14 s with proper significant figures)

A basketball player shoots toward a basket 5.3 m away and 3.0 m above the floor. If the ball is released 1.9 m above the floor a
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Vi = 8.28 m/s

Explanation:

This problem is related to the projectile motion.

As we know there are two components of motion associated with this, the horizontal component and vertical component.

The horizontal distance covered by the ball is

Vx*t = x

Vx*t = 5.3

Vx = 5.3/t  eq. 1

Also we know that

Vx = Vicos(60)

Vx = Vi*0.5  eq. 2

equate eq. 1 and eq. 2

5.3/t = Vi*0.5

5.3/0.5 = Vi*t

Vi*t = 10.6  eq. 3

The vertical distance is

Vy = y1 + Vyi*t - 0.5gt²

also we know that

Vyi = Visin(60)

Vyi = Vi*0.866

It is given that V1 = 1.9 m and and Vy = 3 m is the vertical distance

3 = 1.9 + Vi*0.866*t - 0.5gt²

3 = 1.9 + Vi*0.866*t - 0.5(9.8)t²

3 = 1.9 + 0.866(Vi*t) - 0.5(9.8)t²

3 = 1.9 + 0.866(Vi*t) - 0.5(9.8)t²

1.1 = 0.866(Vi*t) - 4.9t²

0.866(Vi*t) = 4.9t² + 1.1

substitute Vi*t = 10.6 in above equation

0.866(10.6) = 4.9t² + 1.1

9.18 = 4.9t² + 1.1

4.9t² = 8.08

t² = 8.08/4.9

t² = 1.648

t = 1.28 sec

Finally, initial speed can be found by substituting the value of t into eq. 3

Vi*t = 10.6

Vi = 10.6/t

Vi = 10.6/1.28

Vi = 8.28 m/s

A cannonball is launched from the ground at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal and a speed of 30 m/s. Ideally (no air r
marusya05 [52]

As we know that here no air resistance while ball is moving in air

So here we will say that

initial total energy = final total energy

KE_i + U_i = KE_f + U_f

here we know that

Ui = U_f = 0 (as it will be on ground at initial and final position)

so we will say

KE_i = KE_f

since mass is always conserved

so we will say that final speed of the ball must be equal to the initial speed of the ball

so we have

v_f = v_i = 30 m/s
