The major horizontal surface on an airplane that provides lift.​

Physics
1 answer:
fgiga [73]3 years ago

wings

Lift is generated by every part of the airplane, but most of the lift on a normal airliner is generated by the wings. Lift is a mechanical aerodynamic force produced by the motion of the airplane through the air.

Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Time = t = 6.62 s

Explanation:

Given data:

Height = h = 215 m

Initial velocity = v_{i} = 0 m/s

gravitational acceleration = g = 9.8 m/s²

Time = t = ?

According to second equation of motion

                            h = v_{i}t + \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

As initial velocity is zero, So the first term of right hand side of above equation equal to zero.

                                 h = \frac{1}{2}gt^{2}

                                        t² = \frac{2h}{g}

                                         t =\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g} }

                                         t = \sqrt{\frac{(2)(215) }{9.8} }

                                         t = 6.62 s

Which of the following are found within the electromagnetic spectrum? Check all that apply. sound waves visible light X rays ult
sattari [20]

Answer:

Visible light

X rays

ultraviolet radiation

gamma rays

microwave radiation

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields which vibrate in a direction perpendicular to the direction of motion of the wave (transverse wave). Electromagnetic waves have all same speed in a vacuum (c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s, known as speed of light) and are classified into 7 different types according to their frequency and wavelength. This classification is called electromagnetic spectrum.

From lowest to highest wavelength, the 7 types are:

Gamma rays

X-rays

Ultraviolet radiation

Visible light

Infrared radiation

Microwaves

Radio waves

Sound waves, on the contrary, do not belong to the electromagnetic spectrum, since they are another type of wave called mechanical waves (which consist of vibrations of the particles in a medium).

You illuminate the grating in a spectrometer at normal incidence θi=0° with a beam of light that has a wavelength of 6562.8 Å. T
monitta

Answer:

a) θ₁ = 23.14 ° , b) θ₂ = 51.81 °

Explanation:

An address network is described by the expression

     d sin θ = m λ

Where is the distance between lines, λ is the wavelength and m is the order of the spectrum

The distance between one lines, we can find used a rule of proportions

     d = 1/600

     d = 1.67 10⁻³ mm

    d = 1-67 10⁻³ m

Let's calculate the angle

    sin θ = m λ / d

    θ  = sin⁻¹ (m λ / d)

First order

    θ₁ = sin⁻¹ (1 6.5628 10⁻⁷ / 1.67 10⁻⁶)

    θ₁ = sin⁻¹ (3.93 10⁻¹)

    θ₁ = 23.14 °

Second order

     θ₂ = sin⁻¹ (2 6.5628 10⁻⁷ / 1.67 10⁻⁶)

     θ₂ = sin⁻¹ (0.786)

     θ₂ = 51.81 °

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

a) v=0.999124c

b) E=7.566*10^{22}

c) E_a=760 times\ larger

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Distance to Betelgeuse d_b=430ly

Mass of Rocket M_r=20000

Total Time in years traveled T_d=36years

Total energy used by the United States in the year 2000 E_{2000}=1.0*10^20

Generally the equation of speed of rocket v mathematically given by

v=\frac{2d}{\triangle t}

v=860ly/ \triangle t

where

\triangle t=\frac{\triangle t'}{(\sqrt{1-860/ \triangle t)^2}}

\triangle t=\frac{36}{(\sqrt{1-860/ \triangle t)^2}}

\triangle t=\sqrt{(860)^2+(36)^2}

\triangle t=860.7532

Therefore

v=\frac{860ly}{ 860.7532}

v=0.999124c

b)

Generally the equation of the energy E required to attain prior speed mathematically given by

E=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1-(v/c)^2} }-1(20000kg)(3*10^8m/s)^2

E=7.566*10^{22}

c)Generally the equation of the energy E_a required to accelerate the rocket mathematically given by

E_a=\frac{E}{E_{2000}}

E_a=\frac{7.566*10^{22}}{1.0*10^{20}}

E_a=760 times\ larger
