The engine on a fighter airplane can exert a force of 105,840 N (24,000 pounds). The take-off mass of the plane is 16,875 kg. (I

t weighs 37,500 pounds.) If you mounted this aircraft engine on your car, what acceleration would you get? (Please use metric units. The data in pounds are given for comparison. Use a reasonable estimate for the mass of your car. A kilogram mass weighs 2.2 pounds.)

Answer:

The acceleration you can get with that engine in your car is around 70,56 (\frac{m}{s^{2} }) or 7,26 (\frac{ft}{s^{2} } ) using 1500kg of mass or 3306 pounds

Explanation:

Using the equation of the force that is:

F=m*a

So, you notice that you know the force that give the engine, so changing the equation and using a mass of a car in 1500 kg or 3306 pounds

a=\frac{F}{m} =\frac{105840 N }{1500 (kg) }

a=\frac{105840 (\frac{kg*m}{s^{2} } )} {1500 kg }

<em> Note: N or Newton units are: \frac{kg * m}{s^{2} }</em>

a= 70,54 \frac{m}{s^{2} }

Also in pounds you can compared

a= \frac{2400  lf }{3 306  lf}

Note: lf in force units are: \frac{lf*ft}{s^{2} }

a=7,26 \frac{ft}{s^{2} }

Where would a new neuron come from
erica [24]
Neurogenesis does not occur everywhere in the brain but is evident in the hippocampus and olfactory bulb and perhaps in the cerebral cortex. New neurons are born not from mature nerve cells but rather develop from neural stem cells that remain in our brains throughout life.

What are the three most important types of units in radiobiology? Explain the meaning of each.
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Most adverse health effects of radiation exposure may be grouped in two general categories:

deterministic effects (harmful tissue reactions) due in large part to the killing/ malfunction of cells following high doses; and

stochastic effects, i.e., cancer and heritable effects involving either cancer development in exposed individuals owing to mutation of somatic cells or heritable disease in their offspring owing to mutation of reproductive (germ)

When you are driving on a rural road, if your right wheels run off the pavement, you should hold the steering wheel firmly and
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

C). Take your foot off the gas pedal. Then brake lightly until you are moving at low speed.                    

Explanation:

While driving on roads of rural areas, if our right wheel moves off the pavement, we should always hold the steering wheel firmly and then take our foot off the gas pedal, then apply brake lightly until we are moving at a low speed.

      When our wheels drift off the pavement area, we should not panic and yank. And instead of turning the wheel back in the left direction towards the road, it is always safer to take off our foot from the gas pedal and then apply brakes slowly. When our vehicle slows down check the incoming traffic behind us and then we should slowly move back on to the pavement.
