The net force acting on the airplane is 25N.
Forces acting on the paper airplane when it is in the air:
- The forward force generated by the engine, propeller, or rotor is called thrust. It resists or defeats the drag force. It operates generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. However, as will be discussed later, this is not always the case.
- Drag is an airflow disruption generated by the wing, rotor, fuselage, and other projecting surfaces that causes a backward, decelerating force. Drag acts backward and perpendicular to the relative wind, opposing thrust.
- Weight is the total load carried by airplane, including the weight of the crew, fuel, and any cargo or baggage. Due to the influence of gravity, weight pulls the airplane downward.
- Lift—acts perpendicular to the flight path through the center of lift and opposes the weight's downward force. It is produced by the air's dynamic influence on the airfoil.
Given.
Weight of the paper airplane, F1 = 16N
The force of air resistance, F2 = 9N
Net force = F1 + F2
Net force = 25N
Thus, the net force acting on the airplane is 25N.

Mollusks live
in fresh water, in marine environment, but also on land.
<span>Echinoderms
live only in water. This is the reason why they have developed different
systems for moving. Mollusks have only singular muskullus foot for walking and
Echinoderms have tube feet which they use for moving, as well for collecting
and transporting food to their mouth. </span>
Maritime polar air mass comes from the northern part of the pasific ocean and that air mass goes to Utah.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
A. 4
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- <em><u>The period of a wave or periodic time is the time taken for a complete oscillation to occur. </u></em>For example its is the time taken between two successive crests or troughs.
- <em><u>The beats or oscillation that occur in one second represents the frequency. Frequency is the number of complete oscillations or beats in one second in a wave.</u></em>
- Frequency, measured in Hertz is given by the reciprocal of the periodic time.
- Thus; <u><em>Frequency or beats per second = 1/(1/4) = 4</em></u>
- <u><em>Hence , 4 beats per second</em></u>
