A medium-sized jet has a 3.8-m-diameter fuselage and a loaded mass of 85,000 kg. The drag on an airplane is primarily due to the

cylindrical fuselage, and aerodynamic shaping gives it a drag coefficient of 0.37. How much thrust must the jets engines provide to cruise at 260 m/s at an altitude where the air density is 1.7 kg/m^3? Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Answer:

2.4\times 10^{5} N

Explanation:

The force of drag is given by

F= 0.5 C\rho Av^{2}

C is coefficient of drag

\rhois density of air

A is area which is given by \frac {\pi d^{2}}{4}

V is the velocity

F= 0.5*0.37*1.7\times \frac {\pi 3.8^{2}}{4}\times 260^{2}=2.4\times 10^{5} N

Imagine a skinny straw in the water, standing right over the hole. The WEIGHT of the water in that straw is the force on the tape. Now, the volume of water in the straw is (1 mm^2) times (20 cm). Once you have the volume, you can use the density and gravity to find the weight. And THAT's the force on the tape. If the tape can't hold that force, then it peels off and the water runs out through the hole. /// This is a pretty hard problem, because it involved mm^2, cm, and m^3. You have to be very very very careful with your units as you work through this one. If you've been struggling with it, I'm almost sure the problem is the units.

Please help me with questions 1, 2 and 3. <br> i need a step by step explanation
kifflom [539]

Answer:

1) d

2) 5 m/s

3) 100

Explanation:

The equation of position x for a constant acceleration a and an initial velocity v₀, initial position x₀, time t is:

(i) x=\frac{1}{2}at^2+v_0t+x_0

The equation for velocity v and a constant acceleration a is:

(ii) v=at+v_0

1) Solve equation (ii) for acceleration a and plug the result in equation (i)

(iii) a = \frac{v -v_0}{t}

(iv) x = \frac{v-v_0}{2t}t^2+v_0t + x_0

Simplify equation (iv) and use the given values v = 0, x₀ = 0:

(v) x=-\frac{v_0}{2}t + v_0t= \frac{v_0}{2}t

2) Given v₀= 3m/s, a=0.2m/s², t=10 s. Using equation (ii) to get the final velocity v:v=at+v_0=0.2\frac{m}{s^2} * 10s+3\frac{m}{s}=2\frac{m}{s}+3\frac{m}{s}=5\frac{m}{s}

3) Given v₀=0m/s, t₁=10s, t₂=1s and x₀=0. Looking for factor f = x(t₁)/x(t₂) using equation(i) to calculate x(t₁) and x(t₂):

f=\frac{x(t_1)}{x(t_2)}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}at_1^2 }{\frac{1}{2}at_2^2}=\frac{t_1^2}{t_2^2}=\frac{10^2}{1^2}=\frac{100}{1}

The typical unit for a period used with Kepler's third law is
ollegr [7]
Well, if you're using the law to work with periods of Earth satellites,
then the most convenient unit is going to be 'hours' for the largest
orbits, or 'minutes' for the LEOs.

But if you're using it to work with periods of planets, asteroids, or
comets, then you'd be working in days or years.
