A fighter jet is launched from an aircraft carrier with the aid of its own engines and a steam-powered catapult. The thrust of i

ts engines is 2.3 x 10^5 N. In being launched from rest it moves a distance of 87 m and has a kinetic energy of 4.5 x 10^7 J at lift-off. What is the work done on the jet by the catapult?

Answer:

2.5 x 10⁷ J

Explanation:

F = thrust of the engine = 2.3 x 10⁵ N

d = distance traveled = 87  m

Work done by the engine is given as

W = F d =  (2.3 x 10⁵) (87) = 200.1 x 10⁵ J

W' = Net work done

W'' = work done by catapult

KE₀ = initial kinetic energy = 0 J

KE = final kinetic energy = 4.5 x 10⁷ J

Net work done is given as

W' = KE - KE₀

W' = 4.5 x 10⁷ J

We know that

W' = W + W''

4.5 x 10⁷ = 2.001 x 10⁷ + W''

W'' = 2.5 x 10⁷ J

The angular velocity of a flywheel obeys the equa tion w(1) A Br2, where t is in seconds and A and B are con stants having numer
makkiz [27]

Answer:

A \to rad/s

B  \to rad/s^3

Explanation:

\omega_z(t)=A + Bt^2

Required

The units of A and B

From the question, we understand that:

\omega_z(t) \to rad/s

This implies that each of A and Bt^2 will have the same unit as \omega_z(t)

So, we have:

A \to rad/s

Bt^2 \to rad/s

The unit of t is (s); So, the expression becomes

B * s^2 \to rad/s

Divide both sides by s^2

B  \to \frac{rad/s}{s^2}

B  \to rad/s^3

A lens collects light and focuses it into a small spot. This increases the ________ of the light wave.A lens collects light and
Anika [276]

Answer:

intensity.

Explanation:

when the light collected by the lens is focused into a small spot it tends to increase the intensity of the light.

as different path of light with different intensity combines from passing through the lens it tends to make the light path and intensity coherent and after being coherent there intensity increases.

3. Learn: Energy is transferred along food chains, however, the amount of available energy decreases from one
Zolol [24]

''Energy is destroyed because animals are higher levels do not need as much energy'' is not the valid reason.

<h3>What is respiration?</h3>

Respiration is the cellular process of releasing energy from food. Some of the energy released is used to produce ATP. 90 percent of energy is lost as heat energy whereas 10 percent energy is transferred to other trophic levels.

So we can conclude that ''Energy is destroyed because animals are higher levels do not need as much energy'' is not the valid reason.

Stars form from clouds of gas and dust. As a protostar gravitationally contracts within its parent cloud, "conservation of angul
vredina [299]

Answer:

D) True. the protostar rotates more quickly.

Explanation:

If the system is isolated, the angular momentum must be retained.

Initial

        L₀ = I w₀

Final

       L_{f} = I_{f}  w_{f}

      L₀ = L_{f}

      I w₀ = I_{f}w_{f}

     w_{f}  = I /I_{f} w₀

In general, the radius of the cloud decreases significantly to form the star, the moment of inertia must decrease, so the angular velocity must increase

Let's examine the answers

A) False. The opposite happens

B) False. Speed ​​changes

C) False. For this there must be an external force, which does not exist

D) True. You agree with the above
