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 %

How much do you know about the water cycle and the impact that humans have on the water cycle?
Eddi Din [679]
The water cycle is the process when water circulates from the oceans on the Earth, the atmosphere, land, this also involves rainfall and snow, sewers in rivers and streams, and then it returns to the atmosphere by evaporation and transpiration. Humans impact the water cycle by irrigation, urbanization, deforestation, and storing water in reservoirs.

What happens when you pay bills using a computer
rodikova [14]

Answer:

Money is transferred from your account to creditors' accounts

Explanation:

When performing online activities that require payments of bills on a computer. The very moment you decided to pay your bills using a computer, your money will be transferred immediately from your account to creditors' accounts. This will imply that the transaction is successful and you have paid your bills.

Hence, in this case, the correct answer is "Money is transferred from your account to creditors' accounts."

A toroid having a square cross section, 5.00 cm on a side, and an inner radius of 15.0 cm has 500 turns and carries a current of
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

a).β=0.53x10^{-3} T

a).β=0.40 x10^{-4} T

Explanation:

The magnetic field at distance 'r' from the center of toroid is given by:

\beta =\frac{u_{o}*I*N}{2\pi*r}

a).

N=500\\I=0.800A\\r=15cm*\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.15m\\u_{o}=4\pi x10^{-7}\frac{T*m}{A}  \\\beta=\frac{4\pi x10^{-7}\frac{T*m}{A}*0.8A*500}{2\pi*0.15m} \\\beta=0.53x10^{-3}T

b).

The distance is the radius add the cross section so:

r_{1}=15cm+5cm\\r_{1}=20cm

r_{1} =20cm*\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.20m

\beta =\frac{u_{o}*I*N}{2\pi*r1}

\beta =\frac{4\pi x10^{-7}*0.80A*500 }{2\pi*0.20m} \\\beta=0.4x10^{-3} T

Tech A says motor action occurs through the interaction of the magnetic fields of the field coils and the armature, which causes
masha68 [24]

Answer:

Both A and B

Explanation:

The interaction of magnetic fields and armature results into a rotational force of the armature hence turning motion. It's important to note that you will always need two magnetic fields in order to experience the force since one magnetic field is at the rotating armature and another at the casing. Considering the arguments of these two technicians, both of them are correct in their arguments.
