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

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)

Which shows a decrease in fluid pressure? A. A fan is turned from high speed to low speed. B. Oxygen is compressed as it is put
Volgvan

Answer:

Option A.

A fan is turned from high speed to low speed.

Explanation:

It is important to note that air is also a fluid.

In a system, static pressure of air increases with the speed of rotation of the fan. This is because when the speed of the fan is increased, the force with which it is pushing the air molecules is increased. Since pressure is a relationship between force and area, the pressure of the air molecules will be increased.

Conversely, when the speed of the fan is reduced, the priming force on the air molecules will be reduced, hence the pressure of the air will drop.

This makes option A the correct option

Find the force required to do 25 joule work when the force causes a displacement of 0.5 m​
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

<h2>50 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force required can be found by using the formula

f =  \frac{w}{d}  \\

w is the workdone

d is the distance

From the question we have

f =  \frac{25}{0.5}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>50 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

A boy drags a suitcase along the ground with a force of 100 N. If the frictional force opposing the motion of the suitcase is 50
stira [4]
Fortunately, 'force' is a vector.  So if you know the strength and direction
of each force, you can easily addum up and find the 'resultant' (net) force.

When we talk in vectors, one newton forward is the negative of
one newton backward.   Hold that thought, while I slog through
the complete solution of the problem.


            (100 N forward) plus (50 N backward)

        =  (100 N forward) minus (50 N forward)

        =           50 N forward .

That's it.
Is there any part of the solution that's not clear ?

Cuales son las diferencias entre el helio y el hidrógeno?
allsm [11]

El helio es más ligero que el aire y a diferencia del hidrógeno no es inflamable, siendo además su poder ascensional un 8 % menor que el de este, por lo que se emplea como gas de relleno en globos y zepelines publicitarios, de investigación atmosférica e incluso para realizar reconocimientos militares.espero ke esto ayude!
