Answer:

10.85 m/s

Explanation:

m = 1200 kg, h1 = 19 m, h2 = 13 m

Let v be the velocity

Use the conservation of energy

Potential energy at 19 m = Potential energy at 13 m + kinetic energy

m x g x h1 = m x g x h2 + 1/2 mv^2

m x g (h1 - h2) = 0.5 x m v^2

g (h1 - h2) = 0.5 v^2

9.8 (19 - 13) = 0.5 x v^2

v = 10.85 m/s

To take off from the ground, an airplane must reach a sufficiently high speed. The velocity required for the takeoff, the takeof
BlackZzzverrR [31]
<h2>Answer: 26,8 s</h2>

Explanation:

If we are talking about an acceleration at a constant rate , we are dealing with constant acceleration, hence we can use the following equations:

{V_{f}}^{2}={V_{o}}^{2}+2ad (1)

V_{f}=V_{o}+at (2)

Where:

V_{f} is the final velocity of the plane (the takeoff velocity in this case)

V_{o}=0 is the initial velocity of the plane (we know it is zero because it starts from rest)

a=5m/s^{2} is the constant acceleration of the plane to reach the takeoff velocity

d=1800m is the distance of the runway

t is the time

Knowing this, let's begin with (1):

{V_{f}}^{2}=0+2(5m/s^{2})(1800m) (3)

{V_{f}}^{2}=18000m^{2}/s^{2} (4)

V_{f}=134.164 m/s (5)

Substituting (5) in (2):

134.164 m/s=0+(5m/s^{2})t (6)

Finding t:

t=26.8 s This is the time needed to take off

Describe how varying the incline plane angle Affects the force
Greeley [361]

Answer: the force increases as the angle increases

Explanation:

If we assume the incline plane is frictionless, the only force acting on an object on the incline plane is the force of gravity:

F=mg

where m is the mass and g the acceleration due to gravity.

However, the actual force that makes the object sliding down along the incline is not the gravity itself, but the component of the force of gravity parallel to the surface of the incline, which is given by

F_p = mg sin \theta

where \theta is the angle of the incline.

Therefore, we see that as the angle of the incline increases, the force on the object increases.

Two small objects, with masses m and m, are originally a distance r apart, and the gravitational force on each one has magnitude
elena-s [515]
32f. That's because the force is directly proportional to the product of the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance. So you get 2•(1/1/4)^2=2•16=32
