An airplane flies in a loop (a circular path in a vertical plane) of radius 160 m . The pilot's head always points toward the ce

nter of the loop. The speed of the airplane is not constant; the airplane goes slowest at the top of the loop and fastest at the bottom
(a) At the top of the loop, the pilot feels weightless. What is the speed of the airplane at this point?
(b) At the bottom of the loop, the speed of the airplane is 300. What is the apparent weight of the pilot at this point? His true weight is 760 .

Answer:

a) 39.6 m/s b) 4123 N

Explanation:

a) At the top of the loop, all of the forces point downwards (force of gravity and normal force).

Fnet=ma

ma=m(v^2/R) (centripetal acceleration)

mg=m(v^2/R)

m cancels out (this is why pilot feels weightless) so,

g=(v^2/R)

9.8 m/s^2 = v^2/160 m

v^2=1568 m^2/s^2

v=39.6 m/s

b) At the bottom of the loop, the normal force and the force of gravity point in opposite directions. The normal force is the weight felt.

Convert 300 km/hr to m/s

300 km/hr=83.3 m/s

Convert pilot's weight into mass:

760 N = 77.55 kg

Fnet=ma

n-mg=m(v^2/R)

n=(77.55 kg)(((83.3 m/s)^2)/160 m)+(77.55 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)

n=3363.2 N+760 N=4123 N

PLEASEE I NEED HELP FAST!!! .Study the scenario.A small container of water with a low temperature is poured into a large contain
RSB [31]

Answer:

that best describes the process is C

Explanation:

This problem is a calorimeter process where the heat given off by one body is equal to the heat absorbed by the other.

Heat absorbed by the smallest container

             Q_c = m ce (T_{f}-T₀)

Heat released by the largest container is

              Q_a = M ce (T_{i}-T_{f})

how

        Q_c = Q_a

       m (T_{f}-T₀) = M (T_{i} - T_{f})

Therefore, we see that the smaller container has less thermal energy and when placed in contact with the larger one, it absorbs part of the heat from it until the thermal energy of the two containers is the same.

Of the final statements, the one that best describes the process is C

since it talks about the thermal energy and the heat that is transferred in the process

A certain parallel-plate capacitor is filled with a dielectric for which Κ = 5.5 .The area of each plate is 0.034 m2 , and the p
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The maximum energy that can be stored in the capacitor is  6.62 x 10⁻⁵ J

Explanation:

Given that,

dielectric constant k = 5.5

the area of each plate, A = 0.034 m²

separating distance, d =  2.0 mm = 2 x 10⁻³ m

magnitude of the electric field =  200 kN/C

Capacitance of the capacitor is calculated as follows;

C = \frac{k \epsilon A}{d} = \frac{5.5*8.85*10^{-12}*0.034}{2*10^{-3}} = 8.275 *10^{-10} \ F

Maximum potential difference:

V = E x d

V = 200000 x 2 x 10⁻³ = 400 V

Maximum energy that can be stored in the capacitor:

E = ¹/₂CV²

E = ¹/₂ x 8.275 x 10⁻¹⁰ x (400)²

E = 6.62 x 10⁻⁵ J

Therefore, the maximum energy that can be stored in the capacitor is  6.62 x 10⁻⁵ J

A manufacturer selected a metal to use in producing a lightweight button for clothing. A metal that has a density of 2.71 g/cm3
Natali5045456 [20]

Just find the density of every metal and select the one with a density of 2.71 g/cm³ . This is:

Metal 1

ρ = m/V

ρ = 22.1 g / 3 cm³

ρ = 7.367 g / cm³

Metal 2

ρ = m/V

ρ = 42 g / 4 cm³

ρ = 10.5 g / cm³

Metal 3

ρ = m/V

ρ = 9.32 g / 5 cm³

ρ = 1.864 g / cm³

Metal 4

ρ = m/V

ρ = 8.13 g / 3 cm³

ρ = 2.71 g / cm³

<h2>R / Metal 4 was selected.</h2>
