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.

How does energy and temperature affect the density of fluids (liquids and gases)?​
Alex Ar [27]

Answer: When a liquid or gas is heated, the molecules move faster, bump into each other, and spread apart. Because the molecules are spread apart, they take up more space. ... The molecules move more slowly and take up less space. Therefore temperature can affect density.

An electron is moving horizontally east in an electric field that points vertically downward. The electric force on the electron
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

d. )directed upward.

Explanation:

As the electron has a negative charge, when under the influence of an electric field, is subject to an electric force, which direction is the opposite to the direction of the electric field.

This is because the electric field has the same direction that the force on a positive test charge at the same point.

As the electric field points vertically downward, the electric force on the electron (a negative charge) points vertically upward.

So, the statement d. is the one that results to be true.

Superman takes 8 seconds to stop a runway train over a distance of 58 m using a power of
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Workdone = 600 Kilojoules

Explanation:

Given the following data:

Time = 8 seconds

Power = 75,000 Watts

Distance = 58 m

To find the work done;

Power can be defined as the energy required to do work per unit time.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Power = \frac {Energy}{time}

Thus, work done is given by the formula;

Workdone = power * time

Workdone = 75000 * 8

Workdone = 600,000 = 600 KJ
