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

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

the weight of the ball is w = 51.94 N ( mass = 5.3 kg)

Explanation:

Following Newton's second law:

net force = mass * acceleration = weight/gravity * acceleration

then denoting 1 and 2 as the first and second lift

F₁ - w= w/g *a₁

F₂ -w = w/g *a₂ = w/g * 2.07a

dividing both equations

(F₂- w)/(F₁ -w)= 2.07

(F₂- w) = 2.07 * (F₁ -w)

1.07*w = 2.07*F₁ - F₂

w = (2.07*F₁ - F₂ )/ 1.07

replacing values

w = (2.07*61.1 N - 70.9 N )/ 1.07  = 51.94 N

then the weight of the ball is w = 51.94 N ( mass = 5.3 kg)

Answer:

The bottom of the sea is 25 m below sea level.

Explanation:

Given data

Mass = 6.1 × 10^{8} \ kg

\rho_{sea} = 1020\  \frac{kg}{m^{3} }

We know that Buoyant force on the tank is equal to gravity force of the tank.

F_B = F_g

(\rho_{Fluid}) (g) (V_{disp}) = m g

(\rho_{Fluid})  (V_{disp}) = m

1020 × V_{disp} = 6.1 × 10^{8}

V_{disp} = 598039.21 m^{3}

We know that

V_{disp} = W × L × H

598039.21 = 300 × 80 × H

H = 25 m

Therefore the bottom of the sea is 25 m below sea level.

A baseball thrown by a pitcher is hit by a batter. At the moment when the ball hits the bat, the force exerted on the bat by the
Slav-nsk [51]

Newton's Laws of motion describe the motion of an object based on the applied force

The correct option that gives the relationships between the forces is the the option;

\underline{F_{ball}}<u> on bat</u> = \underline{F_{bat}}<u> on ball</u>

<em>(Either option A or B without the minus symbol before </em>F_{bat}<em>, likely typographical error)</em>

<em />

Reason:

Force exerted on the bat by the ball = F_{ball}

Force exerted on the ball by the bat = F_{bat}

Given that the batter hits the ball with the bat, the force exerted by the bat on the ball, F_{bat}, is reacted to by the force of the ball acting on the bat, F_{ball}

According to Newton's third law of motion, action and reaction are equal and opposite. Therefore, at the moment when the ball hits the bat, we have;

\underline{F_{ball}}<u> on bat</u> = \underline{F_{bat}}<u> on ball</u>

<em>Where the force of the bat is high, the ball is accelerated to travel at high speed</em>
