Answer:

Balancing equipment.

Explanation:

The wind tunnel made by Wright's brother was made up of a wooden box with glasses on it to see the inner instruments work.

The key factor that made the Wright's brother wind tunnel a useful tool for wind design is the balancing equipment used in it. It was designed to measure lift and drag. Old hacksaw blades and bicycle spokes were used to make the balances which measure the forces of lift and drag action on a wing.

Please help!How is constant or uniform acceleration used to explain free fall?

garik1379 [7]

Free fall is a special case of motion with constant acceleration, because acceleration due to gravity is always constant and downward. For example, when a ball is thrown up in the air, the ball's velocity is initially upward.

A volleyball is dropped from a cliff and a soccer ball is thrown upward from the same position. When each ball reaches the groun

vredina [299]

The question is whether the statement is true or false.

The answer if false.

Explanation:

It is exactly the opposite. The soccer ball will hit the ground with greater velocity.

Since the soccer ball is thrown upward, when it returns to the same heigth from which it was throwm it will have a velocity downward, which will make that the soocer ball reaches the ground at the bottom of the clif with greater velocity than the volleball.

The greater the velocity with which the soccer ball is thrown upward, the greater its velocity when reaches the same point from which it was thrown, and the greater the velocity with which it will hit the ground at the bottom of the clif.

Mademuasel [1]

Explanation:

Formula for steady flow energy equation for the flow of fluid is as follows.

$m[h_{1} + \frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2}] + z_{1}g] + q = m[h_{1} + \frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2} + z_{1}g] + w$

Now, we will substitute 0 for both $z_{1}$ and $z_{2}$ , 0 for w, 334.9 kJ/kg for $h_{1}$ , 2726.5 kJ/kg for $h_{2}$ , 5 m/s for $V_{1}$ and 220 m/s for $V_{2}$ .

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

$m[h_{1} + \frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2}] + z_{1}g] + q = m[h_{1} + \frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2} + z_{1}g] + w$

$1 \times [334.9 \times 10^{3} J/kg + \frac{(5 m/s)^{2}}{2} + 0] + q = 1 \times [2726.5 \times 10^{3} + \frac{(220 m/s)^{2}}{2} + 0] + 0$

q = 6597.711 kJ

Thus, we can conclude that heat transferred through the coil per unit mass of water is 6597.711 kJ.
