Acceleration does NOT "generate" force. Acceleration NEEDS force to make it happen. Without force ... provided by something else ... acceleration can't happen.

The force NEEDED to accelerate a mass with a certain acceleration is

Force needed = (mass) times (acceleration)

For the rocket ship in the question,

Force = (135,000,000 kg) times (200 m/s²)

Force = (135,000,000 x 200) kg-m/s²

<em>Force = 27 Giga-Newtons </em>(27,000,000,000 Newtons)

The gas-generator cycle F-1 rocket engine, developed in the US by Rocketdyne in the late 1950s, was used in the Saturn V rocket, the main launch vehicle of NASA's Apollo moon lander program . Five F-1 engines were used in the first stage of each Saturn V.

==> The thrust of each F-1 engine at full throttle is 7,770 kilo-Newtons.

It would take <em>3,475 </em>of these F-1 rocket engines, running full-throttle, to provide the force calculated in the answer to this question. If you didn't have 3,475 F-1 rocket engines, then you couldn't accelerate 135,000,000 kg at 200 m/s².

(And by the way ... the mass of each F-1 engine is 8,400 kg. So 3,475 engines alone account for 22% of the mass you're trying to accelerate. And don't even get me started about the mass of the FUEL you'd need to carry.)

A helicopter has blades of length 4.0 m rotating at 3.0 rev/s in a horizontal plane.If the vertical component of the Earth’s mag

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Induced emf, $\epsilon=9.79\times 10^7\ volts$

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of the helicopter, l = 4 m

Angular speed of the helicopter, $\omega=3\ rev/s=18.84\ rad/s$

The vertical component of the Earth’s magnetic field is, $B=6.5\times 10^5\ T$

We need to find the induced emf between the tip of a blade and the hub. The induced emf in terms of angular velocity of an rotating object is given by :

$\epsilon=\dfrac{1}{2}B\omega l^2$

$\epsilon=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 6.5\times 10^5\times 18.84\times (4)^2$

$\epsilon=9.79\times 10^7\ volts$

So, the induced emf between the tip of a blade and the hub is $\epsilon=9.79\times 10^7\ volts$ . Hence, this is the required solution.
