The speed of sound in air is 331 m/s. what is the plane's speed in terms of the speed of sound?

1 answer:

5 0

The initial speed, u of plane in terms of velocity of sound which may be taken as U
u=142/331=0.429*U
It crosses the sound barrier after says t seconds then we have 331-142=23.1*t or t is given 8.18 s exactly t=9/11s.
After 18 seconds the plane will traveling with velocity V
V=142+18*23.1=557.8 m/s==1.685*U

dusya [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

diameter of spacecraft $d=148\ m$

radius $r=74\ m$

Force of gravity $F_g$ =mg

where m =mass of object

g=acceleration due to gravity on earth

Suppose v is the speed at which spacecraft is rotating so a net centripetal acceleration is acting on spacecraft which is given by

$F_c=\frac{mv^2}{r}$

$F_c=F_g$

$\frac{mv^2}{r}=mg$

$\frac{v^2}{r}=g$

$v=\sqrt{gr}$

$v=\sqrt{1450.4}$

$v=38.08\ m/s$
