Perpendicular acceleration:
F = ma
a = 4 / 2 = 2 m/s²

Perpendicular distance:

s = ut + 1/2 at²
s = 0 x 4 + 1/2 x 2 x 4²
s = 16 m

Horizontal distance:
s = ut
= 3 x 4
= 12 m

Total distance = √(12² + 16²)
= 20 m.

In Example 2.7, we investigated a jet landing on an aircraft carrier. In a later maneuver, the jet comes in for a landing on sol
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

a) 20 seconds

b) No.

Explanation:

t = Time taken for jet to stop

u = Initial velocity = 100 m/s (given in the question)

v = Final velocity = 0 (because the jet will stop at the end)

s = Displacement of the jet (Distance between the moment the jet touches the ground to the point the point it stops)

a = Acceleration = -5.00 m/s² (slowing down, so it is negative)

a) Equation of motion

v=u+at\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{0-100}{-5}\\\Rightarrow t=20\ s

The time required for the plane to slow down from the moment it touches the ground is 20 seconds.

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow s=100\times 20+\frac{1}{2}\times -5\times 20^2\\\Rightarrow s=1000\ m

The distance it requires for the jet to stop is 1000 m so in a small tropical island airport where the runway is 0.800 km long the plane would not be able to land. The runway needs to be atleast 1000 m long here the runway on the island is 1000-800 = 200 m short.

Southern state and local elections in 1876 differed from those in previous years in that
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

Southern state and local elections in 1876 differed from those in previous years in that the election of 1876 was one of the closest races in American history. It tested the Constitution and resulted in a compromise that ended Reconstruction in America.

The election of 1876 between Rutherford B. Hayes and Democrat Samuel Tilden of New York was one of the most hostile, controversial campaigns in American history. The vote was 8-7 along party lines to award the disputed electoral college votes to Hayes, making him the winner.

Explanation:

The Compromise of 1876 is known for being the catalyst for the end of Reconstruction era, it was one of the most contentious and controversial presidential elections in American history.

Republican nominee Rutherford B. Hayes faced Democrat Samuel J. Tilden. After a controversial post-election process, He lost the popular vote to Democrat Samuel J. Tilden but he won an intensely disputed electoral college vote after a Congressional commission awarded him twenty contested electoral votes Hayes was declared the winner. The Hayes-Tilden Compromise is often seen as the final point that brought an end to Reconstruction, as it led to the removal of the US army from the South.

As Florida's Supreme Court had earlier declared a Democratic victory in the 1876 gubernatorial election, Democrats had been restored to power all across the South. The Compromise of 1876 effectively ended the Reconstruction era.

Southern Democrats' promised to protect civil and political rights of blacks as they were not kept, and to end of federal interference in southern affairs. This led to widespread disenfranchisement of blacks voters. Other factors that contributed to the end of Reconstruction were the Panic of 1873 and political corruption in the United States.

The Compromise of 1877 (the Great Betrayal) was an informal, unwritten deal, that settled the intensely disputed 1876 U.S. presidential election. It resulted in the United States federal government pulling the last troops out of the South, and formally ended the Reconstruction Era.

A helium nucleus (charge = 2e, mass = 6.63 10-27 kg) traveling at 6.20 105 m/s enters an electric field, traveling from point ci
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

v_B=3.78\times 10^5\ m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge on helium nucleus is 2e and its mass is 6.63\times 10^{-27}\ kg

Speed of nucleus at A is v_A=6.2\times 10^5\ m/s

Potential at point A, V_A=1.5\times 10^3\ V

Potential at point B, V_B=4\times 10^3\ V

We need to find the speed at point B on the circle. It is based on the concept of conservation of energy such that :

increase in kinetic energy = increase in potential×charge

\dfrac{1}{2}m(v_A^2-v_B^2)=(V_B-V_A)q\\\\\dfrac{1}{2}m(v_A^2-v_B^2)={(4\times 10^3-1.5\times 10^3)}\times 2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}=8\times 10^{-16}\\\\v_A^2-v_B^2=\dfrac{2\times 8\times 10^{-16}}{6.63\times 10^{-27}}\\\\v_A^2-v_B^2=2.41\times 10^{11}\\\\v_B^2=(6.2\times 10^5)^2-2.41\times 10^{11}\\\\v_B=3.78\times 10^5\ m/s

So, the speed at point B is 3.78\times 10^5\ m/s.
