A jet transport has a weight of 1.87 x 10⁶ N and is at rest on the runway. The two rear wheels are 16.0 m behind the front wheel

, and the plane's center of gravity is 12.0 m behind the front wheel. Determine the normal force exerted by the ground on (a) the front wheel and on (b) each of the two rear wheels.

Answer:

a)  R(fw)  = 46.75*10⁶ (N)

b)  R(rwi) = 70.125*10⁶ [N]

Explanation: See Attached file (the rectangle stands for a jet)

The diagram shows forces acting on the jet

Let R(fw)    Reaction of front wheels and

R(rw)   Reaction of rear wheels

Now we apply the Stevin relation, for R(fw)  and a jet weight as follows

R(fw)/ 4   =  187*10⁶ / 16

Then :

R(fw)  = ( 1/4) *187*10⁶           ⇒   R(fw)  = 46.75*10⁶ (N)

And e do the same for the reaction on rear wheels

R(rw) / 12  = 187*10⁶ /16   ⇒     R(rw) =(3/4)*187*10⁶

R(rw) = 140,25*10⁶ [N]

The last expression is for the whole reaction, and must be devide by 2

because that force is exerted for two wheels, therefore on each of the two rear wheels the reaction will be:

R(rwi) = 70.125*10⁶ [N]

A bird lands on a bare copper wire carrying a current of 51
nirvana33 [79]
The resistance of the piece of wire is
R= \frac{\rho L}{A}
where
\rho = 1.68 \cdot 10^{-8}\Omega m is the resistivity of the copper
L=5.1 cm=0.051 m is the length of the piece of wire
A=0.13 cm^2 = 0.13 \cdot 10^{-4} m^2 is the cross sectional area of the wire
By substituting these values, we find the value of R:
R= \frac{\rho L}{A}=6.6 \cdot 10^{-5} \Omega

Then, by using Ohm's law, we find the potential difference between the two points of the wire:
V=IR=(51 A)(6.6 \cdot 10^{-5} \Omega )=3.4 \cdot 10^{-3} V

A train moves at 300 km/h. How far will it go in 5 hours?
faust18 [17]

Answer:

1,500 km

Explanation:

300 km/h

300 kilometers PER <u><em>HOUR</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

So you want to see how far it will go in 5 hours, all you need to do is multiply the kilometers by 5. Since we know that per hour it's 300 km.

300 * 5 = 1,500

The train moves at 1,500 km in 5 hours.

Hope this helped!
