A 21500 kg jet airplane is flying through some high winds. At some point in time, the airplane is pointing due north, while the

wind is blowing from the north and east. If the force on the plane from the jet engines is 35100 N due north, and the force from the wind is 14900 N in a direction 75.0° south of west, what will be the magnitude and direction of the plane's acceleration at that moment? Enter the direction of the acceleration as an angle measured from due west (positive for clockwise, negative for counterclockwise).

Answer:\theta =79.47 North\ of\ west

Explanation:

Given

Mass of airplane =21500 kg

Force due to jet engines=35100 N

Force from wind is 14900 N at angle of 75 south of west

Resolving forces

F_x=14900cos75=-3856.403 N

F_y=35100-14900sin75

F_y=35100-14392.29=20707.70 N

Therefore acceleration in x direction

a_x=\frac{F_x}{m}=\frac{-3856.403}{21500}=-0.179 m/s^2

a_y=\frac{F_y}{m}=\frac{20707.70}{21500}=0.963 m/s^2

Direction of acceleration

tan\theta =\frac{a_y}{a_x}=\frac{0.963}{0.179}=-5.38

\theta =79.47\ North\ of\ west

Difference between calorimeter and thermometer ?
Kaylis [27]
A calorimeter is can be used to measure the amount of heat released or involved in a chemical reaction. Whereas thermometer can only measures temperature or hotness of a substance. It cannot be used to measure the thermal rate or amount of heat energy of a reaction.

A 56.0 kg box hangs from a rope. what is the tension in the rope if: the box has vy = 5.30 m/s and is speeding up at 5.10 m/s2 ?
Minchanka [31]

T = tension force in the rope in upward direction

m = mass of the box attached at end of rope = 56 kg

W = weight of the box in downward direction due to gravity

a = acceleration of the box in upward direction = 5.10 m/s²

weight of the box is given as

W = mg

inserting the values

W = (56) (9.8)

W = 548.8 N


force equation for the motion of the box is given as

T - W = ma

inserting the values

T - 548.8 = (56) (5.10)

T = 834.4 N

Describe the sequence of mechanical energy events that lets you hear the
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Starting from the beginning.

There is a radio signal that is received by the radio.

The radio interprets the signal and produces a current in response to it.

That current goes to a membrane that oscillates producing sound, the oscillation of the membrane is the first mechanical energy event here.

These oscillations can travel in material mediums, for example, the air. Then there is a production of waves (soundwaves) that travel in the air (second event).

Those waves now hit the wall that separates you and your neighbor, as the wall is made of a material, the soundwaves can travel through it, but they will be dispersed (a part of the waves rebounds on the wall, and another part is dissipated as the wave travels through the wall), there is also a transmitted part of the wave, that is now in your house. (this change of medium will be the third event). Now only the lower frequencies survive, this is why the sound is "muffled".

Those remaining frequencies now travel in your house, and when they reach your ear, your ear sends a signal to your brain and your brain interprets them as sound. The wave interacting with your ear will be the fourth and last mechanical energy event.
