1) The momentum of the airplane is $3.84\cdot 10^5 kg m/s$ east

2) The impulse applied to the airplane is 32,000 kg m/s west

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is defined as

$p=mv$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

The airplane in this problem has

m = 3200 kg is its mass

v = 120 m/s east is its velocity

So, its momentum is

$p=(3200)(120)=3.84\cdot 10^5 kg m/s$

And since momentum is a vector, it also has a direction, which is the same as the velocity (east).

The impulse applied to an object is equal to the change in momentum of the object:

$I=\Delta p = m(v-u)$

where

m is the mass

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

For the airplane in this problem,

m = 3200 kg

u = 120 m/s

v = 110 m/s

So, the impulse is

$I=(3200)(110-120)=-32,000 kg m/s$

And the negative sign means the direction of the impulse is opposite to the airplane motion, so west.

A horizontal wire is hung from the ceiling of a room by two massless strings. The wire has a length of 0.11 m and a mass of 0.01

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

The magnetic force acting horizontally will deflect the wire by angle φ from the vertical

Let T be the tension

T cosφ = mg

Tsinφ = Magnetic force

Tsinφ = BiL , where B is magnetic field , i is current and L is length of wire

Dividing

Tanφ = BiL / mg

= .055 x 29 x .11 / .010 x 9.8

= 1.79

φ = 61° .

Tension T = mg / cosφ

= .01 x 9.8 / cos61

= .2 N .

A body with initial velocity 8.0 m/s moves along a straight line with constant acceleration and travels

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

(a) The average velocity is 16 m/s

(b) The acceleration is 0.4 m/s^2

(c) The final velocity is 24 m/s

Explanation:

Constant Acceleration Motion

It's a type of motion in which the velocity (or the speed) of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal period of time.

Being a the constant acceleration, vo the initial speed, vf the final speed, and t the time, final speed is calculated as follows:

$v_f=v_o+at\qquad\qquad [1]$

The distance traveled by the object is given by:

$\displaystyle x=v_o.t+\frac{a.t^2}{2}\qquad\qquad [2]$

(a) The average velocity is defined as the total distance traveled divided by the time taken to travel that distance.

We know the distance is x=640 m and the time taken t= 40 s, thus:

$\displaystyle \bar v=\frac{x}{t}=\frac{640}{40}=16$

The average velocity is 16 m/s

Using the equation [1] we can solve for a:

$\displaystyle a=\frac{v_f-v_o}{t}$

$\displaystyle a= 2\frac{x-v_ot}{t^2}$

Since vo=8 m/s, x=640 m, t=40 s:

$\displaystyle a= 2\frac{640-8\cdot 40}{40^2}=0.4$

The acceleration is 0.4 m/s^2

(b) The final velocity is calculated by [1]:

$v_f=8+0.4\cdot 40$

$v_f=8+16=24$

The final velocity is 24 m/s

What are the subzones for each main zone?

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The oceanic zone is subdivided into the epipelagic, mesopelagic, and bathypelagic zones on the basis of amount of light that reaches different depths. The mesopelagic (disphotic) zone, where only small amounts of light penetrate, lies below the Epipelagic zone.

Will two separate 50db sounds together constitute a 100db sound explain mathematical

vfiekz [6]

Putting together two distinct 50 dB sound, do not create a 100 dB sound. Since decibels are logarithm of energy, creating two sounds together only makes the energy increase but the logarithm only goes up by somehow little. So increasing the sound by 10 dB, only makes it 10000 times louder because each 10 dB increase in sound makes the sound 10 times louder.

Twice as loud is an increase of 10Log (2) = 3.01 dB. So, 53,01 dB is twice as loud as 50dB.

Iron combines with oxygen and water from the air to form rust. If an iron nail were

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

When iron rusts - in the presence of moisture and oxygen - iron-oxide is formed. Iron oxide is nothing but a compound of iron and oxygen. There is an increase in the mass of the iron equal to the mass of oxygen that has gone into forming the rust.

hope it helps:)
