An airplane is flying in a horizontal circle at a speed of 480 km/h. If its wings are tilted 40° to the horizontal, what is the
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

r = 2161.9 m

Explanation:

Aerodynamic lift(L) is perpendicular to the wing, which is tilted 40 degrees to the horizontal.

Since the plane is moving in a horizontal circle, the vertical component of the lift must cancel the weight W of the airplane, but the horizontal component is the centripetal force that keeps it in a circle.

L is perpendicular to wing at angle θ with respect to horizontal

Thus,

Vertical component of lift is:

L cosθ = W = mg

Thus, m = L cosθ / g - - - - (eq1)

Horizontal component of lift is:

L sinθ = centripetal force = mv² / r - - - - (eq2)

Combining equations 1 and 2,we have;

L sinθ = (L cosθ / g)(v² / r)

L cancels out on both sides to give;

tanθ = v²/ rg

r = v² / (g tanθ)

We are given;

velocity; v = 480 km/hr = 480 x 10/36 = 133.33 m/s

r = 133.33²/[(9.8) tan(40)] = 2161.9 m

Help please! This question is driving me crazy
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

-10.8°, or 10.8° below the +x axis

Explanation:

The x component of the resultant vector is:

x = 3.14 cos(30.0°) + 2.71 cos(-60.0°)

x = 4.07

The y component of the resultant vector is:

y = 3.14 sin(30.0°) + 2.71 sin(-60.0°)

y = -0.777

Therefore, the angle between the resultant vector and the +x axis is:

θ = atan(y / x)

θ = atan(-0.777 / 4.07)

θ = -10.8°

The angle is -10.8°, or 10.8° below the +x axis.

A 5.0-kg block of wood is placed on a 2.0-kg aluminum frying pan. How much heat is required to raise the temperature of both the
Shalnov [3]

Heat required to raise the temperature of a given system is

Q = ms\Delta T

here we know that

m = mass

s = specific heat capacity

\Delta T = change in temperature

now as we know that

mass of wood = 5 kg

mass of aluminium pan = 2 kg

change in temperature = 45 - 20 = 25 degree C

specific heat capacity of wood = 1700 J/kg C

specific heat capacity of aluminium = 900 J/kg C

now here we will find the total heat to raise the temperature of both

Q = m_1s_1\Delta T_1 + m_2s_2\Delta T_2

Q = 5 * 1700 * 25 + 2 * 900 * 25

Q = 212500 + 45000

Q = 257500 J

So heat required to raise the temperature of the system is 257500 J
