Why can't passenger planes fly very high?

Physics

Archy [21]3 years ago

<span>It is not that jet engines perform better at higher altitude, but rather they are more fuel efficient. Performance is far greater at lower altitudes. Just think about when you are taking off and the airplane accelerates quickly and pitches way up. There's lots of extra thrust down low to allow that. The fuel/air ratio remains somewhat constant through the climb. As altitude increases, the air thin outs and therefore, so can the fuel flow. Airlines try for the most efficient routes and altitudes as possible to save money. They do however change altitudes in flight (higher or lower) when needed for weather and turbulence avoidance. --- And a note about the jet stream, it is relatively narrow and always curving, so the time an airliner would spend there is very short. And another thing, it flows mostly west to east isn't the U.S. so a westbound flight would be at a disadvantage. Airlines still fly high whether traveling East or West.</span>

how much force would be required to produce 88 j of work when pushing a box 1.1meters at an angle of 10 degrees?
ycow [4]

Answer:81.235N

Explanation:

Work=88J

theta=10°

distance=1.1 meters

work=force x cos(theta) x distance

88=force x cos10 x 1.1 cos10=0.9848

88=force x 0.9848 x 1.1

88=force x 1.08328

Divide both sides by 1.08328

88/1.08328=(force x 1.08328)/1.08328

81.235=force

Force=81.235

We know that every object exerts an attraction on every other object and the heavier the object ___ the attraction.
hichkok12 [17]
I don't know what the exact word is, but I do know that the bigger an objects mass is the more it will attract other objects toward it, mainly smaller objects with less mass. it might be gravity or something around those lines....is it a multiple choice question?

A circular loop of wire with radius 2.00 cm and resistance 0.600 Ω is in a region of a spatially uniform magnetic field B⃗ that
Anika [276]

Answer:

Incomplete questions

Let assume we are asked to find

Calculate the induced emf in the coil at any time, let say t=2

And induced current

Explanation:

Flux is given as

Φ=NAB

Where

N is number of turn, N=1

A=area=πr²

Since r=2cm=0.02

A=π(0.02)²=0.001257m²

B=magnetic field

B(t)=Bo•e−t/τ,

Where Bo=3T

τ=0.5s

B(t)=3e(−t/0.5)

B(t)=3exp(-2t)

Therefore

Φ=NAB

Φ=0.001257×3•exp(-2t)

Φ=0.00377exp(-2t)

Now,

Induce emf is given as

E= - dΦ/dt

E= - 0.00377×-2 exp(-2t)

E=0.00754exp(-2t)

At t=2

E=0.00754exp(-4)

E=0.000138V

E=0.138mV

b. Induce current

From ohms laws

V=iR

Given that R=0.6Ω

i=V/R

i=0.000138/0.6

i=0.00023A

i=0.23mA

The volume electric charge density of a solid sphere is given by the following equation: The variable r denotes the distance fro
qwelly [4]

Answer:

62.8 μC

Explanation:

Here is the complete question

The volume electric charge density of a solid sphere is given by the following equation: ρ = (0.2 mC/m⁵)r²The variable r denotes the distance from the center of the sphere, in spherical coordinates. What is the net electric charge (in μC) of the sphere if the radius of the sphere is 0.5 m?

Solution

The total charge on the sphere Q = ∫∫∫ρdV where ρ = volume charge density = 0.2r² and dV = volume element in spherical coordinates = r²sinθdθdrdΦ

So,  Q =  ∫∫∫ρdV

Q =  ∫∫∫ρr²sinθdθdrdΦ

Q =  ∫∫∫(0.2r²)r²sinθdθdrdΦ

Q =  ∫∫∫0.2r⁴sinθdθdrdΦ

We integrate from r = 0 to r = 0.5 m, θ = 0 to π and Φ = 0 to 2π

So, Q =  ∫∫∫0.2r⁴sinθdθdrdΦ

Q =  ∫∫∫0.2r⁴[∫sinθdθ]drdΦ

Q =  ∫∫0.2r⁴[-cosθ]drdΦ

Q =  ∫∫0.2r⁴-[cosπ - cos0]drdΦ

Q =  ∫∫∫0.2r⁴-[-1 - 1]drdΦ

Q =  ∫∫0.2r⁴-[- 2]drdΦ

Q =  ∫∫0.2r⁴(2)drdΦ

Q =  ∫∫0.4r⁴drdΦ

Q =  ∫0.4r⁴dr∫dΦ

Q =  ∫0.4r⁴dr[Φ]

Q =  ∫0.4r⁴dr[2π - 0]

Q =  ∫0.4r⁴dr[2π]

Q =  ∫0.8πr⁴dr

Q =  0.8π∫r⁴dr

Q =  0.8π[r⁵/5]

Q = 0.8π[(0.5 m)⁵/5 - (0 m)⁵/5]

Q = 0.8π[0.125 m⁵/5 - 0 m⁵/5]

Q = 0.8π[0.025 m⁵ - 0 m⁵]

Q = 0.8π[0.025 m⁵]

Q = (0.02π mC/m⁵) m⁵

Q = 0.0628 mC

Q = 0.0628 × 10⁻³ C

Q = 62.8 × 10⁻³ × 10⁻³ C

Q = 62.8 × 10⁻⁶ C

Q = 62.8 μC
