A plane designed for vertical takeoff has a mass of 8.0 × 10³ kg. Find the net work done by all forces on the plane as it accele
artcher [175]

Answer:

<em>the net work done after starting from rest is =  2.4 × 10⁵ J</em>

Explanation:

Work: Work can be defined as the product of force and distance. The fundamental unit of work is Joules (J),  The unit of Energy is Joules (J), as such Energy and work are interchangeable during calculation, This is illustrated below

E = W = 1/2mv².......................... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the plane, v = velocity of the plane, E = Energy, W = work done.

v² = u² + 2as ................................. Equation 2.

Where v = final velocity of the plane, u = initial velocity of the plane, a = acceleration of the plane, distance of the plane.

<em>Given: a = 1.0 m/s², s = 30 m, u = 0 m/s (at rest)</em>

<em>Substituting these values into equation 2</em>

<em>v² = 0² +2×1×30</em>

<em>v² = 60</em>

<em>v = √60</em>

<em>v = 7.75 m/s</em>

Also given: m = 8.0 × 10³ kg, and v = 7.75 m/s

<em>Substituting these values into equation 1,</em>

<em>W = 1/2(8.0×10³)(7.75)²</em>

<em>W = (4.0×10³)(60)</em>

W = 240 × 10³ J

<em>W = 2.4 × 10⁵ J</em>

<em>Therefore the net work done after starting from rest is =  2.4 × 10⁵ J</em>

A boat sails along the shore. To an observer, the boat appears to move at a speed of 22 m/s, and a man on the boat walking forwa
seropon [69]
The boat is moving at 22 m/s while the man is moving at 23.1 m/s.

That means the man, relative to the boat, is moving at 23.1-22 = 1.1 m/s.

v =d/t, so t = d/v --> t = 3/1.1 = 2.7 s
