The net force acting on the airplane is 25N.

Forces acting on the paper airplane when it is in the air:

  • The forward force generated by the engine, propeller, or rotor is called thrust. It resists or defeats the drag force. It operates generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. However, as will be discussed later, this is not always the case.
  • Drag is an airflow disruption generated by the wing, rotor, fuselage, and other projecting surfaces that causes a backward, decelerating force. Drag acts backward and perpendicular to the relative wind, opposing thrust.
  • Weight is the total load carried by airplane, including the weight of the crew, fuel, and any cargo or baggage. Due to the influence of gravity, weight pulls the airplane downward.
  • Lift—acts perpendicular to the flight path through the center of lift and opposes the weight's downward force. It is produced by the air's dynamic influence on the airfoil.

Given.

Weight of the paper airplane, F1 = 16N

The force of air resistance, F2 = 9N

Net force = F1 + F2

Net force = 25N

Thus, the net force acting on the airplane is 25N.

A block of mass 10kg is moved at a constant speed through a horizontal distance of 4m, by applying a force 50N. How much work ha
algol13

Answer:

Explanation:

given that

mass = 10kg

distance = 4m

force = 50N

to calculate the workdone when the force is applied in the same direction of displacement

mathematically,

workdone = force × distance

Workdone = 50 × 4

workdone = 200 joules

2) to calculate the workdone at an angle of 30° with the displacement we apply the formula

workdone = force × distance × cos Ф

workdone = 50 × 4 × cos 30°

workdone = 200 × 0.866

workdone = 173 . 2 joules

marishachu [46]

Answer:

1) Periodically check the no stop or NDL time on their computers

2) The dive computer planning mode can be used if available

3) Make use of a dive planning app

4) Check data from the RDP table or an eRDPML

Explanation:

The no stop times information from the computer gives the no-decompression limit (NDL) time allowable which is the time duration a diver theoretically is able to stay at a given depth without a need for a decompression stop

The dive computer plan mode or a downloadable dive planning app are presently the easiest methods of dive planning

The PADI RDP are dive planners based on several years of experience which provide reliable safety limits of depth and time.
