An attack helicopter is equipped with a 20- mm cannon that fires 87 g shells in the forward direction with a muzzle speed of 853

m/s. The fully loaded helicopter has a mass of 4410 kg. A burst of 176 shells is fired in a 2.93 s interval. What is the resulting average force on the helicopter?

Answer:

4457.7 N

Explanation:

87g = 0.087kg

v = 853m/s

t = 2.93 s

total mass hitting = m = 0.087*176 = 15.32 kg

net momentum = mv = 15.32*853 = 13061 kg.m/s

as we know the rate of change of momentum is the average force of impact,

F_avg = \frac{mv}{t} = \frac{13061}{2.93} = 4457.7 kg.m/s^2 = 4457.7 N

Answer

given,

mass of the shell = 87 g = 0.087 Kg

speed of the muzzle = 853 m/s

mass of the helicopter = 4410 kg

A burst of 176 shell fired in 2.93 s

resulting average force = ?

momentum of the shell = m v

                                       = 0.087 x 853

                                       = 74.21 kgm/s

momentum of 176 shell is = 176 p

                                          = 176 x 74.21

                                          = 13060.96

momentum of helicopter = - 13060.96 kgm/s

amount of speed reduce a = \dfrac{13060.96}{M}

                                          a= \dfrac{13060.96}{4410}

                                          a = 2.96 m/s²

velocity  = \dfrac{2.96}{2.93}

      v = 1.01 m/s

The volume of an ideal gas is adiabatically reduced from 151 L to 80.6 L. The initial pressure and temperature are 1.50 atm and
Zolol [24]

Answer:

gas is dioatomic

T_f = 330.0 K

\eta = 7.07 mole

Explanation:

Part 1

below equation is used to determine the type Gas by determining \gamma value

\frac{V_{1}}{V_{F}}\gamma=\frac{P_{i}}{P_{f}}

where V_i and V_f is initial and final volume respectively

and P_i and P_f are initial and final pressure

\gamma = \frac{ln(P_f/P_i)}{ln(V_i/V_f)}

\gamma = \frac{ln(3.61/1.50)}{ln(151/80.6}

\gamma = 1.38

therefore gas is dioatomic

Part 2

final temperature in adiabatic process is given as

T_f = T_i*[\frac{v_i}{V_f}](^\gamma-1)

substituing value to get final temperature

T_f = 260*[\frac{151}{80.6}]^ {(1.38-1)}

T_f = 330.0 K

Part 3

determine number of moles by using following formula

\eta =\frac{PV}{RT}

\eta =\frac{1.013*10^{5}*0.151}{8.314*260}

\eta = 7.07 mole

If a single constant force acts on an object that moves on a straight line, the object's velocity is a linear function of time.
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

F=mkv

Explanation:

Given that

v = v_i - kx

We know that acceleration a given as

a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}

v = v_i - kx

\dfrac{dv}{dt}=\dfrac{dv_i}{dt}-k\dfrac{dx}{dt}

\dfrac{dv}{dt}=0-k\dfrac{dx}{dt}

We know that

F=m\dfrac{dv}{dt}

F=-mk\dfrac{dx}{dt}

F=-mkv

So the magnitude of force F

F=mkv
