Answer:

The average acceleration is 8.06 m/s².

Explanation:

It is given that,

Initial speed of the jet, u = 120 mph = 176 ft/s

Final velocity of the jet, v = 30 mph = 44 ft/s

Distance, d = 1800 ft

We need to find the average acceleration required of the airplane during braking. It can be calculated using third law of motion as :

v^2-u^2=2ad

a = acceleration

a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2d}

a=\dfrac{(44\ ft/s)^2-(176\ ft/s)^2}{2\times 1800\ ft}

a=-8.06\ ft/s^2

So, the average acceleration required of the airplane during braking is -8.06 ft/s². Hence, this is the required solution.

As a way of determining the inductance of a coil used in a research project, a student first connects the coil to a 5.62 V batte
Reptile [31]

Answer:

Its inductance L = 166 mH

Explanation:

Since a current, I = 0.698 A is obtained when a voltage , V = 5.62 V is applied, the resistance of the coil is gotten from V = IR

R = V/I = 5.62/0.698 = 8.052 Ω

Since we have a current of I' = 0.36 A (rms) when a voltage of V' = 35.1 V (rms) is applied, the impedance Z of the coil is gotten from

V₀' = I₀'Z where V₀ = maximum voltage = √2V' and I₀ = maximum current = √2I'

Z = V'/I' = √2 × 35.1 V/√2 × 0.36 V = 97.5 Ω

WE now find the reactance X of the coil from

Z² = X² + R²

X = √(Z² - R²)

= √(97.5² - 8.05²)

= √(9506.25 - 64.8025)

= √9441.4475

= 97.17 Ω

Now, the reactance X = 2πfL where f = frequency of generator = 93.1 Hz and L = inductance of coil.

L = X/2πf

= 97.17/2π(93.1 Hz)

= 97.17 Ω/584.965 rad/s

= 0.166 H

= 166 mH

Its inductance L = 166 mH
