An airplane flies eastward and always accelerates at a constant rate. At one position along its path it has a velocity of 34.3 m

/s, it then flies a further distance of 40100 m and afterwards its velocity is 47.5 m/s. Find the airplane\'s acceleration and calculate how much time elapses while the airplane covers those 40100 m.

Explanation:

We'll need two equations.

v² = v₀² + 2a(x - x₀)

where v is the final velocity, v₀ is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, x is the final position, and x₀ is the initial position.

x = x₀ + ½ (v + v₀)t

where t is time.

Given:

v = 47.5 m/s

v₀ = 34.3 m/s

x - x₀ = 40100 m

Find: a and t

(47.5)² = (34.3)² + 2a(40100)

a = 0.0135 m/s²

40100 = ½ (47.5 + 34.3)t

t = 980 s

A particle is moving along a projectile path where the initial height is 160 feet with an initial speed of 144 feet per second.
Leviafan [203]
Assuming Earth's gravity, the formula for the flight of the particle is: 

<span>s(t) = -16t^2 + vt + s = -16t^2 + 144t + 160. </span>

<span>This has a maximum when t = -b/(2a) = -144/[2(-16)] = -144/(-32) = 9/2. </span>

<span>Therefore, the maximum height is s(9/2) = -16(9/2)^2 + 144(9/2) + 160 = 484 feet. </span>

What is the definition of speed and the formula for calculation?
pashok25 [27]
For a body moving at a uniform velocity you can calculate the speed by dividing the distance traveled by the amount of time it took, for example one mile in 1/2 hour would give you 2 miles per hour. If the velocity is non-uniform all you can say is what the average speed is.

Newton's Law of Gravitation states that two bodies with masses m1 and m2 attract each other with a force F, where r is the dista
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

W = - 5.01 10¹⁰ J

Explanation:

Work is defined by the expression

      W = ∫ F.dr

Where the blacks indicate vectors, in the case the force is radial and the distance is also radial, whereby the scalar producer is reduced to an ordinary product

      W = ∫ F dr

      W = G m₁m₂ ∫ 1 /r² dr

     W = G m₁ m₂2(-1 / r)

We evaluate between the lower limits r = Re and upper r = ∞

     W = G m₁m₂ (-1 / Re + 1 / ∞)

     W = - G m₁ m₂ / Re

Let's calculate

    W = - 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 800 5.98 10²⁴ / 6.37 10⁶

    W = - 5.01 10¹⁰ J

What are 5 differences between Spring Tides and Neap Tides?
ad-work [718]

Spring Tides are formed by the constructive interference of bulges created by the moon and sun. Spring Tides occur when the Sun, Moon and the Earth are aligned. Neap Tides are formed by the destructive interference created by the moon and sun. Neap tides occur when the Sun, Moon, and Earth align to make a right angle.
