A military jet cruising at an altitude of 12.0km and speed of 1300./kmh burns fuel at the rate of 46.2/Lmin. How would you calcu
ira [324]

Answer:

2,452.12 L of fuel the jet consumes on a 1150 km mission.

Explanation:

Speed of the jet = 1300 km/h

1 hour = 60 minutes

1300 km/h=\frac{1300 km}{60 min}=21.667 km/min

Rate at which jet consumes fuel = 46.2 L/min

Distance covered by jet by consuming 1 liter fuel or mileage = R

R = \frac{21.667 km/min}{46.2 L/min}=0.4690 km/L

The amount of fuel the jet consumes on a 1150 km mission will = V

Amount of fuel = \frac{Distance}{Mileage}

V=\frac{1150 km}{0.4690 km/L}=2,452.12 L

2,452.12 L of fuel the jet consumes on a 1150 km mission.
