Answer:41.67kW

Explanation: a) power = force * velocity

Convert km/hr to m/s=1000m/(60×60s)

=1000/3600

P=F×vel

Power =1500×100× 1000/3600

=1500×100×5/18

=41,666.67W

=41.67kW

A light aircraft with a wing area of 200 ft^2 and a weight of 2000 lb has a lift coefficient of 0.39 and a drag coefficient of 0
Gnoma [55]

Answer: power required to maintain level flight=82.20hp

Explanation:

Given

Area = 200 ft^2

Weight = 2000 lb

Cl( Lift coefficient)= 0.39

Cd( Drag coefficient) = 0.06  

The density ρ of air at standard atmospheric  pressure = 2.38 X 10^-3 slugs/ft^3

For Equilibrium to be maintained during flight conditions, the lift force must be balanced by the weight of the aircraft such that

Lift force  = Weight of aircraft

(1/2)ρAU²Cl= W

1/2X 2.38 X 10^-3 X 200 X U² X 0.39 = 2000

U²= 2000 X 2 / 2.38 X 10^-3 X 200 X 0.39

U=\sqrt{21,547.08}

Velocity, U= 146.7892ft/s

Drag force of the velocity can be deduced from the formulae

Cd= Drag force(D) /1/2 ρU²A

Drag force=1/2 ρU²ACd

D=1/2 x (2.38 X 10^-3 slugs/ft^3) x (146.7892ft/s)² x 200 ft^2 x 0.06

D=307.69

Drag force= 308lb

power required to maintain level flight is given as

P = Drag force x Velocity = D x U

=308lb X  146.7892ft/s

=45,211.0736lb.ft/s

Changing to hp we have that

1 Horsepower, hp = 550 ft lbf/s

??=45,211.0736lb.ft/s

45,211.0736lb.ft/s/ 550 ft lbf/s= 82.20hp

Which type of inappropriate practice most likely occurred if a researcher takes credit for someone else’s idea and does not ackn
Rashid [163]

Answer: the answer is plagiarism.

Explanation: Plagiarism is the act of taking credit from someone else's works or ideas, without acknowledging the author. <u>Conflict of interest</u> occurs when an employee has <u>interests that are at odds to each other</u>, which isn't shown at the excerpt given in the exercise. <u>Fabrication</u> is the <u>creation of intellectual property</u>, also not shown in the exercise, and <u>falsification</u> is the <u>creation of a scientific hypothesis</u> that <u>cannot be verified</u> by lack of practical evidence, which is not the case described as well.

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Marcus would have to take an exam administered by the national council of examiners for engineering and surveying.

Explanation:

Civil engineers design, construct, and maintain projects regarding infrastructure. A civil engineer also looks after the systems in the public and private sectors like roads, buildings, and systems for water supply and sewage treatment.

In order to pursue a career in civil engineering, Marcus aims to work for the city council as a civil engineer. Therefore, he would have to take an exam administered by the national council of examiners for engineering and surveying.
