An airplane is flying at a constant velocity through the air. What is the relationship between the magnitudes of the four forces

B. L = W; F = D
C. L = W = F = D
D. L = W; F > D

Answer:

(B) L=W; F=D

Explanation:

Since the airplane's velocity is constant, the airplane is not accelerating in any direction. In absence of acceleration, all forces acting on the plane are balanced so that the net forces in the horizontal and the vertical directions are zero. Given the drawing, this implies that

Forward force = Drag force (F=D)

Weight = Lift (W=L)

which corresponds to option (B)

(it is not C because nothing in the text says that the vertical and horizontal components have to have same magnitude)

When a balloon is deflating, why does air leave the balloon?
Gwar [14]

Answer:

<em>When a balloon deflates air moves out of the balloon </em><em>because the pressure inside the balloon is higher than the pressure outside the balloon.</em>

Explanation:

An inflated balloon has a high pressure region on its inside. Gases always move from a region of high pressure to a region of low pressure. When a balloon is inflated its membrane stretches making it even more porous.

The gas molecules inside the balloon easily diffuse out through this membrane. The diffusion rate may differ depending on the type of gas filled inside the balloon and the material of the balloon. For example helium balloon deflates faster than common air balloon.

This is because helium is a light element and can escape easier than gases like nitrogen and oxygen through the porous membrane of the balloon.

A proton is projected perpendicularly into a magnetic field that has a magnitude of 0.50 T. The field is then adjusted so that a
bixtya [17]

Answer:

B_e = 2.72 \times 10^{-4} T

Explanation:

As we know that when charge particle is projected in perpendicular magnetic field then the radius of the charge particle is given as

F = qvB

\frac{mv^2}{r} = qvB

now we have

r = \frac{mv}{qB}

since here radius of proton and electron will be same

so we will have

r_e = r_p

\frac{m_e v}{q_e B_e} = \frac{m_p v}{q_p B_p}

so we have

B_e = \frac{B_p m_e}{m_p}

given that

B_p = 0.50 T

m_e = 9.11 \times 10^{-31} kg

m_p = 1.67 \times 10^{-27} kg

so we have

B_e = \frac{0.50(9.11\times 10^{-31})}{1.67\times 10^{-27}}

B_e = 2.72 \times 10^{-4} T
