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

What is entropy and how is it related to string theory?
balu736 [363]

Answer:

Explanation:

String theory proposes that the fundamental constituents of the universe are one-dimensional “strings” rather than point-like particles. String theory also requires six or seven extra dimensions of space, and it contains ways of relating large extra dimensions to small ones. In statistical mechanics, entropy is an extensive property of a thermodynamic system. It quantifies the number Ω of microscopic configurations that are consistent with the macroscopic quantities that characterize the system theyre related  It later developed into superstring theory, which posits a connection called supersymmetry between bosons and the class of particles called fermions. Five consistent versions of superstring theory were developed before it was conjectured in the mid-1990s that they were all different limiting cases of a single theory in 11 dimensions known as M-theory. In late 1997, theorists discovered an important relationship called the AdS/CFT correspondence, which relates string theory to another type of physical theory called a quantum field theory.
