Answer:

The percentage of the weight supported by the front wheel is  A= 19.82 %

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The center of gravity of the plane to its nose  is  z = 2.58 m

    The distance of the front wheel of the plane to  its nose is l = 0.800\ m

     The distance of the main wheel of the plane to its nose is e =  3.02 \ m

At equilibrium  the Torque about the nose of the airplane is mathematically represented as

          mg (z- l) -  G_B *(e - l) = 0

Where m is the mass of the airplane

          G_B is the weight of the airplane supported by the main wheel  

       So  

             G_B =\frac{mg (z-l)}{(e - l)}

Substituting values

            G_B =\frac{mg (2.58 -0.8 )}{(3.02  - 0.80)}

           G_B = 0.8018 mg

Now the weight supported at the frontal wheel is mathematically evaluated as

           G_F = mg - G_B

Substituting values      

       G_F = mg - 0.8018mg    

      G_F = (1 - 0.8018) mg      

     G_F = 0.1982 mg    

Now the weight of the airplane is  =  mg

Thus percentage of this weight supported by the front wheel is  A = 0. 1982 *100 = 19.82 %

IrinaK [193]
The centripetal force is:
 F = mv² / R
 Where:
 m: mass of the object
 v: object speed
 R: radius of the curve.
 We have to:
 m = 2000kg
 v = 25 m / s
 R = 80 meters.
 Then the centripetal force acting on the vehicle is:
 F = (2000kg * (25m / s) ²) / 80m
 F = 15625 N

nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

 P₁- P₂ = 91.1 10³ Pa

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use Bernoulli's equation, where point 1 is at the bottom of the house and point 2 on the second floor

          P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² + ρ g y₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂² + ρ g y₂

          P1-P2 = ½ ρ (v₂² - v₁²) + ρ g (y₂-y₁)

In the exercise they give us the speeds and the height of the turbid, so we can calculate the pressure difference

For heights let's set a reference system on the ground floor of the house, so we have 5m for the second floor and an entrance at -2m

 

        P₁-P₂ = ½ 1.0 10³ (7² - 2²) + 1.0 10³ 9.8 (5 + 2)

       P₁-P₂ = 22.5 10³ + 68.6 10³

       P₁- P₂ = 91.1 10³ Pa
