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

Means/end analysis involves:_________
polet [3.4K]

a. a gradual approximation to the final solution

Explanation:

Means/end analysis is a process that involves creation of an end goal to enable the identified means to apply.

In this techniques sub-goals are formed to eliminate the challenges faced in application of a selected operator.

It starts by identifying a predetermined goal which is followed by actions that will led to the goal.
