Answer:

890 N

Explanation:

Acceleration is change in velocity over change in time.

a = Δv / Δt

a = (11 m/s − 0 m/s) / 0.26 s

a = 42.3 m/s²

Force is mass times acceleration.

F = ma

F = (21 kg) (42.3 m/s²)

F ≈ 890 N

Using information about natural laws, explain why some car crashes produce minor injuries and others produce catastrophic injuri

Ludmilka [50]

It all has to do with what's going on around us. The speed of the vehicles, the type of vehicle, the safety factors, seatbelts, where you are in the car, what was the force of the impact, etc; Every accident has different factors playing into them in order to lead to said injuries

An airplane is flying in a horizontal circle at a speed of 480 km/h (). If its wings are tilted at angle =40° to the horizontal

german

Answer:

$R = 2162 m$

Explanation:

When wings of the airplane makes an angle of 40 degree with the horizontal so here we can say that force due to air is having two components

$F_y = mg$

$F_x = \frac{mv^2}{R}$

now we know that

$F_y = F cos40$

$F_x = F sin40$

also we know that

$v = 480 km/h$

$v = 133.3 m/s$

now plug in all data in above equations

$tan 40 = \frac{v^2}{Rg}$

$R = \frac{v^2}{g tan40}$

$R = \frac{133.3^2}{9.8 tan40}$

$R = 2162 m$
