<u>Answer:</u> The average speed of the plane in northeast direction is 816 km/hr and that in upward direction is 6.4 km/hr

<u>Explanation:</u>

Average speed is defined as the ratio of total distance traveled to the total time taken.

To calculate the average speed of the runner, we use the equation:

\text{Average speed}=\frac{\text{Total distance traveled}}{\text{Total time taken}}       .......(1)

  • <u>In northeast direction:</u>

Total distance traveled = 204 km

Total time taken = 15.0 mins = 0.25 hr   (Conversion factor:  1 hr = 60 mins)

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Average speed of plane}=\frac{204km}{0.25hr}=816km/hr

  • <u>In upward direction:</u>

Total distance traveled = 1.6 km

Total time taken = 15.0 mins = 0.25 hr

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Average speed of plane}=\frac{1.6km}{0.25hr}=6.4km/hr

Hence, the average speed of the plane in northeast direction is 816 km/hr and that in upward direction is 6.4 km/hr

Answer:

230 m/s northeast, 1.8 m/s up

Explanation:

204 kilometres = 204000 metres

15.0 minutes = 900 seconds

Velocity = Distance / Time

= 204000 / 900

= 230 m/s northeast (to 2 sf.)

1.6km = 1600 metres

Velocity = 1600 / 900

= 1.8 m/s up (to 2 sf.)

A 10 kg rock that has been dropped from a 60 meter high cliff experiences an average force of air resistance of 30 N. Calculate
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

4086 J

Explanation:

The potential energy is transformed to kinetic energy less the frictional energy. Potential energy= mgh where m represent mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height of cliff

Since we have force of air resistance, work done due to air resistance will be product of force and distance

mgh-Fh= 0.5mv^{2}= KE

Substituting 10 Kg for m, 9.81 for g and 60 m for F then the kinetic energy at the bottom will be

KE= 10*9.81*60- (30*60)=4086 J

Which of the following is not possible? A. Gas flow equals pressure gradient over resistance. B. Resistance equals pressure grad
kaheart [24]

Answer:

C. Pressure gradient equals gas flow over resistance.

Explanation:

As we know that pressure gradient is the driving force for the gas to flow from one point to other point

And we know that the flow rate is directly proportional to the driving force and it inversely depends on the resistance to flow

so we can say

Flow Rate = \frac{Driving \: force}{Resistance}

Flow Rate = \frac{Pressure \: Gradient}{Resistance}

so we can say that correct statements are as below

A. Gas flow equals pressure gradient over resistance.

B. Resistance equals pressure gradient over gas flow.

D. The amount of gas flowing in and out of the alveoli is directly proportional to the difference in pressure or pressure gradient between the external atmosphere and the alveoli.

A. What is the RMS speed of Helium atoms when the temperature of the Helium gas is 343.0 K? (Possibly useful constants: the atom
kkurt [141]

Answer:

(a) 1462.38 m/s

(b) 2068.13 m/s

Explanation:

(a)

The Kinetic energy of the atom can be given as:

K.E = (3/2)KT

where,

K = Boltzman's Constant = 1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/k

K.E = Kinetic Energy of atoms = 343 K

T = absolute temperature of atoms

The K.E is also given as:

K.E = (1/2)mv²

Comparing both equations:

(1/2)mv² = (3/2)KT

v² = 3KT/m

v = √[3KT/m]

where,

m = mass of Helium = (4 A.M.U)(1.66 X 10⁻²⁷ kg/ A.M.U) = 6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

v = RMS Speed of Helium Atoms = ?

Therefore,

v = √[(3)(1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/K)(343 K)/(6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg)]

<u>v = 1462.38 m/s</u>

(b)

For double temperature:

T = 2 x 343 K = 686 K

all other data remains same:

v = √[(3)(1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/K)(686 K)/(6.64 x 10⁻²⁷ kg)]

<u>v = 2068.13 m/s</u>

the idling engines of a landing turbojet produce forward thrust when operating in a normal manner, but they can produce reverse
Finger [1]

Forward thrust has positive values and reverse thrust has negative values.

Thrust is a sudden push or pull in a certain direction.

a)

Flight speed u = 150 km/h

1 km/h = \frac{1}{3.6} km/s

therefore, 150 km/h =  41.67 km / s

The thrust force represents the horizontal or x-component of momentum equation:

T = m_{exhaust} * U_{exhaust} - U_{flight}

T = 50 * (150 - 41.67)

T = 5416.67 N

Therefore, the value of forward thrust is 5416.67 N.

b)

Now the exhaust velocity is now vertical due to reverse thrust application, then it has a zero horizontal component,

thus thrust equation is:

T = m_{exhaust} * U_{exhaust} - U_{flight}

T = 50 * (0 - 41.67)

T = -2083.5 N

Therefore, the thrust force T is -2083.5 N in the reverse direction.

c)

Now the exhaust velocity and flight velocity is zero, then it has a zero horizontal component, thus thrust is also zero becauseU_{exhaust} = U_{flight} = 0\\

T = 0

Therefore, there is no difference in two velocities in x direction.

The given question is incomplete, the complete question is,

"The idling engines of a landing turbojet produce forward thrust when operating in a normal manner, but they can produce reverse thrust if the jet is properly deflected. Suppose that while the aircraft rolls down the runway at 150 km/h the idling engine consumes air at 50 kg/s and produces an exhaust velocity of 150 m/s.

a. What is the forward thrust of this engine?

b. What are the magnitude and direction (i.e., forward or reverse) if the exhaust is deflected 90 degree without affecting the mass flow?

c. What are the magnitude and direction of the thrust (forward or reverse) after the plane has come to a stop, with 90 degree exhaust deflection and an airflow of 40 kg/s?"
