Answer:
The Forces of Flight
At any given time, there are four forces acting upon an aircraft.
These forces are lift, weight (or gravity), drag and thrust. Lift is
the key aerodynamic force that keeps objects in the air. It is the
force that opposes weight; thus, lift helps to keep an aircraft in
the air. Weight is the force that works vertically by pulling all
objects, including aircraft, toward the center of the Earth. In order
to fly an aircraft, something (lift) needs to press it in the opposite
direction of gravity. The weight of an object controls how strong
the pressure (lift) will need to be. Lift is that pressure. Drag is a
mechanical force generated by the interaction and contract of a
solid body, such as an airplane, with a fluid (liquid or gas). Finally,
the thrust is the force that is generated by the engines of an
aircraft in order for the aircraft to move forward.
Explanation:
The impact of the material
type with which the slope is made affects the acceleration. Acceleration will
be higher and smoother if the material of the slope surface is smoother as
opposed to a texture which is not smooth. Smoother surface allows more acceleration
because it will have less friction and resistance. Otherwise the friction will
slow the object down for example a grassy ground will have more friction than a
well maintained marble floor.
Answer:
weight at height = 100 N .
Explanation:
The problem relates to variation of weight due to change in height .
Let g₀ and g₁ be acceleration due to gravity , m is mass of the object .
At the surface :
Applying Newton's law of gravitation
mg₀ = G Mm / R²
At height h from centre
mg₁ = G Mm /h²
Given mg₀ = 400 N
400 = G Mm / R²
400 = G Mm / (6400 x 10³ )²
G Mm = 400 x (6400 x 10³ )²
At height h from centre
mg₁ = 400 x (6400 x 10³ )²/ ( 2 x 6400 x 10³)²
= 400 / 4
= 100 N .
weight at height = 100 N
1.Use the balance to find the mass of the object. Record the value on the "Density Data Chart."
2.Pour water into a graduated cylinder up to an easily-read value, such as 50 milliliters and record the number.
3.Drop the object into the cylinder and record the new value in millimeters.
4.The difference between the two numbers is the object's volume. Remember that 1 milliliter is equal to 1 cubic centimeter. Record the volume on the data chart.
5.Compute the density of the object by dividing the mass value by the volume value. Record the density on the data chart.
