Answer:

The work done by the bird is 0.762 J

Explanation:

Given;

force applied by the bird, f = 10 N

distance the bird moved the worm, d = 3 inches = 0.0762 m

The work done by the bird is given by;

W = F x d

where;

W is the work done by the bird

d is the distance the bird moved the load

Substitute the given values and estimate the work done by the bird;

W = 10 x 0.0762

W = 0.762 J

Therefore, the work done by the bird is 0.762 J

A spring is 20cm long is stretched to 25cm by a load of 50N. What will be its length when stretched by 100N. assuming that the e

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Final Length = 30 cm

Explanation:

The relationship between the force applied on a string and its stretching length, within the elastic limit, is given by Hooke's Law:

F = kΔx

where,

F = Force applied

k = spring constant

Δx = change in length of spring

First, we find the spring constant of the spring. For this purpose, we have the following data:

F = 50 N

Δx = change in length = 25 cm - 20 cm = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Therefore,

50 N = k(0.05 m)

k = 50 N/0.05 m

k = 1000 N/m

Now, we find the change in its length for F = 100 N:

100 N = (1000 N/m)Δx

Δx = (100 N)/(1000 N/m)

Δx = 0.1 m = 10 cm

but,

Δx = Final Length - Initial Length

10 cm = Final Length - 20 cm

Final Length = 10 cm + 20 cm

<u>Final Length = 30 cm</u>

An airplane has an effective wing surface area of 19.4 m2 that is generating the lift force. In level flight the air speed over

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

W =23807.68 N

Explanation:

given,

surface area of wing = 19.4 m²

speed over top wing = 67 m/s

speed under wing = 51 m/s

density of air = 1.3 kg/m³

weight of plane

From Bernoulli's principle

$P_1 + \dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = P_2 + \dfrac{1}{2}\rho_2^2$

where 1 and 2 are two different locations at the same geo potential level

so if we call 1 the lower surface and 2 the upper surface,

we find the pressure differential, P₁ -P₂

$\Delta P =\dfrac{1}{2}\rho (v_2^2-v_1^2)$

$\Delta P =\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.3 \times (67^2-51^2)$

$\Delta P =1227.2\ N/m^2$

then the force acting on the plane is

F=P A

F=1227.2 x 19.4

F =23807.68 N

weight of the plane

W =23807.68 N
