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 types of natural phenomena could serve as time standards?
Delvig [45]

Answer: The rising and setting of the Sun.

The appearance and disappearance of the Moon.

Changes in season.

Appearance and disappearance of the Stars.

Explanation: The rising and setting of the Sun helps can be used as a standard to determine time since the rissing and setting of the Sun occurs at similar time and interval in a given geographical ocation.

The appearance and disappearance of the Moon which occurs during the night and early hours of the morning is similar in a given geographical locationation so it can be used as a standard for Time.

Change in season is another natural phenomenon which occurs at similar times in a given geographical location like Winter/summer, rainy/dry etc can be used as standards for time.

The appearance and disappearance of the Stars can also b used as standards for time in a given geographical location.
