An airplane is being pushed West by its engines with a force of 350 N as it starts to take off the runway at the Atlanta airport

. As it moves, 100 N of friction force from the runway and 100 N of air resistance are pushing the airplane toward the East. What are the net forces acting on the plane and which direction will it move?
Group of answer choices:

The airplane will move to the West with a net force of 250 N


The airplane is experiencing balanced forces so it will stop moving.


The airplane will continue to move toward the West with a net force of 150 N.


The airplane will move to the East with a net force of 250 N.

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

given,

Force by the engine on plane in West direction = 350 N

Frictional force on the runway = 100 N in east

force exerted by the wind = 100 N in east

net force and direction = ?

consider west to be positive and east be negative.

when airplane will be moving there will be frictional as well as wind resistance will be acting in opposite direction of airplane

Net force = 350 N - 100 N - 100 N

                 = 150 N

as our answer comes out to be positive so the airplane will be moving in West

hence, the correct answer is option C

How much heat is needed to warm 0.072kg of gold from 20 celsius and 90 celsius if the specific heat of gold 136 joules
dybincka [34]

Heat supplied to the gold will raise the temperature of the gold from 20 degree Celsius to 90 degree Celsius.

Mass of the gold (m) = 0.072 kg

Temperature change (ΔT) = 90 - 20 = 70 degree Celsius

Specific heat capacity of the gold (c) = 136 J/kg C

Heat supplied = m × c × ΔT

Heat supplied = 0.072 × 136 × 70

Heat supplied = 685.44 Joules

Hence, the heat supplied to the gold to raise the temperature from 20 degree Celsius to 90 degree Celsius = 685.44 Joules

If you could shine a very powerful flashlight beam toward the Moon, estimate the diameter of the beam when it reaches the Moon.
grin007 [14]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the Rayleigh Criterion (Angular resolution)criterion. This conceptos describes the ability of any image-forming device such as an optical or radio telescope, a microscope, a camera, or an eye, to distinguish small details of an object, thereby making it a major determinant of image resolution.  By definition is defined as:

\theta = 1.22\frac{\lambda}{d}

Where,

\lambda= Wavelength

d = Width of the slit

\theta= Angular resolution

Through the arc length we can find the radius, which would be given according to the length and angle previously described.

The radius of the beam on the moon is

r = l\theta

Relacing \theta

r = l(\frac{1.22\lambda}{d})

r = 1.22\frac{l\lambda}{d}

Replacing with our values we have that,

r = 1.22*(\frac{(384*10^3km)(\frac{1000m}{1km})(550*10^{-9}m)}{7*10^{{-2}}})

r = 3680.91m

Therefore the diameter of the beam on the moon is

d = 2r

d = 2 * (3690.91)

d = 7361.8285m

Hence, the diameter of the beam when it reaches the moon is 7361.82m

A 1000 kg satellite and a 2000 kg satellite follow exactly the same orbit around the earth. What is the ratio F1/F2 of the gravi
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

the <em>ratio F1/F2 = 1/2</em>

the <em>ratio a1/a2 = 1</em>

Explanation:

The force that both satellites experience is:

F1 = G M_e m1 / r²       and

F2 = G M_e m2 / r²

where

  • m1 is the mass of satellite 1
  • m2 is the mass of satellite 2
  • r is the orbital radius
  • M_e is the mass of Earth

Therefore,

F1/F2 = [G M_e m1 / r²] / [G M_e m2 / r²]

F1/F2 = [G M_e m1 / r²] × [r² / G M_e m2]

F1/F2 = m1/m2

F1/F2 = 1000/2000

<em>F1/F2 = 1/2</em>

The other force that the two satellites experience is the centripetal force. Therefore,

F1c = m1 v² / r    and

F2c = m2 v² / r

where

  • m1 is the mass of satellite 1
  • m2 is the mass of satellite 2
  • v is the orbital velocity
  • r is the orbital velocity

Thus,

a1 = v² / r ⇒ v² = r a1    and

a2 = v² / r ⇒ v² = r a2

Therefore,

F1c = m1 a1 r / r = m1 a1

F2c = m2 a2 r / r = m2 a2

In order for the satellites to stay in orbit, the gravitational force must equal the centripetal force. Thus,

F1 = F1c

G M_e m1 / r² = m1 a1

a1 = G M_e / r²

also

a2 = G M_e / r²

Thus,

a1/a2 = [G M_e / r²] / [G M_e / r²]

<em>a1/a2 = 1</em>
