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 %

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

The right solution is "24.39 per sec".

Explanation:

According to the question,

⇒ v=\frac{502.1}{\sqrt{3} }

      =289.9 \ m/s

The time will be:

⇒ t=\frac{d}{v}

      =\frac{2\times 6}{289.9}

      =\frac{12}{289.9}

      =0.041 \ sec

hence,

⇒ N=\frac{1}{t}

        =\frac{1}{0.041}

        =24.39 \ per \ sec

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Force exerted = 25.41 kN

Explanation:

We have equation of motion

      v² = u²+2as

u = 345 m/s, s = 8.9 cm = 0.089 m, v = 0 m/s

     0² = 345²+2 x a x 0.089

       a = -668679.78 m/s²

Force exerted = Mass x Acceleration

Mass of bullet = 38 g = 0.038 kg

Acceleration = 668679.78 m/s²

Force exerted = 25409.83 N = 25.41 kN
