Jet fighter planes are launched from aircraft carriers with the aid of their own engines and a catapult. If in the process of be

ing launched from rest, the thrust of a jet's engines is 2.50 x 10^5 N and after moving through a distance of 90 m the plane lifts off with a kinetic energy of 5.40 x 10^7 J, what is the work done on the jet by the catapult?

Answer:

W=315 x 10⁵ J

Explanation:

Given that

F= 2.5 x 10⁵ N

d= 90 m

K.E.=5.4 x 10⁷ J

We know that work done by all force is equal to the change in kinetic energy

Lets take work done by catapult is W

W + F.d= K.E.

W= 5.4 x 10⁷ -  2.5 x 10⁵  x 90 J

W= (540 - 25 x 9) 10⁵ J

W=315 x 10⁵ J

If an object is projected upward from ground level with an initial velocity of 144144 ft per​ sec, then its height in feet after
Liula [17]

Answer:

4.5 s, 324 ft

Explanation:

The object is projected upward with an initial velocity of

v_0 = 144 ft/s

The equation that describes its height at time t is

s(t) = -16t^2 + 144 t (1)

where t, the time, is measured in seconds.

In order to find the time it takes for the object to reach the maximum height, we must find an expression for its velocity at time t, which can be found by calculating the derivative of the position, s(t):

v(t) = s'(t) = -32t +144 (2)

At the maximum heigth, the vertical velocity is zero:

v(t) = 0

Substituting into the equation above, we find the corresponding time at which the object reaches the maximum height:

0=-32t+144\\t=\frac{144}{32}=4.5 s

And by substituting this value into eq.(1), we also find the maximum height:

s(t) = -16(4.5)^2+144(4.5)=324 ft

Which two points on the wave shown in the diagram below are in phase with each other?
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

4. B and D

Explanation:

Two points along a transverse wave (such as the one in the figure) are said to be in phase when:

- the vertical position of the two points is the same

- The oscillation of the wave is going in the same way for both points

Basically, we say that two points are in phase when they are separated by a complete cycle (one complete oscillation) of the wave.

For this wave, we see that point B and C have same displacement, but they are not in phase since in B the oscillation is going down while in C is going up.

Instead, B and D are in phase, because they are separated by one complete cycle: both points have same displacement and the oscillation is going in the same way for both of them.

If you cut a apple and leave it in the open air and it turns brown what kind of chemical change is that
barxatty [35]

Answer:

Oxidation

Explanation:

The browning of the apple after you cut it undergoes a natural chemical change called oxidation, wherein the apple's enzymes react with the oxygen in the environment.

9. A 227 kg object is moved a distance of 2.4 m forward by a force. If 686 J of work is done on the object, what is the object’s
Korolek [52]

<em>1</em><em>.</em><em>259ms^2</em>

Explanation:

since, WORK DONE = FORCE*DISTANCE

AND, FORCE=MASS*ACCELERATION

SO, THE WORK DONE BECOMES=MASS*ACCELERATION*DISTANCE

ACCELERATION=WORK/(MASS*DISTANCE)

AND, WORK=686J

MASS=227kg

DISTANCE=2.4m

THEREFORE, ACCELERATION=686/(227*2.4)

=686/544.8

=1.259ms^2
