You are designing an airport for small planes. One kind of airplane that might use this airfield must reach a speed before takeo
ladessa [460]

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the airfield, u = 0

Final speed, v = 27.8 m/s

Acceleration of the airfield, a=2\ m/s^2

Length of the runway, d = 150 m

Let v' is the speed of the airplane to reach the required speed for takeoff. Finding v' using third equation of motion as :

v'^2-u^2=2ad\\\\v'=\sqrt{2ad} \\\\v'=\sqrt{2\times 2\times 150} \\\\v'=24.49\ m/s

This speed is not enough as the airfield must reach a speed before takeoff of at least 27.8 m/s. Now, the required length of the runways is :

v^2=2ax\\\\x=\dfrac{v^2}{2a}\\\\x=\dfrac{(27.8)^2}{2\times 2}\\\\x=193.21\ m

So, the minimum length of the runways is 193.21 meters.

Why do we feel the effects of gravity given that the gravitational force is so weak?
almond37 [142]
Any two objects in the universe attract each other. Gravity is the force exerted by earth on you (you exert the same force on earth) but due to the fact that earth has a huge mass compared to yours, you will be attracted to earth only by a small gravitational force.

Sliva [168]

Answer:

Interface

Explanation:

This is a classic example of Interface technology.

An interface allows different software packages to communicate without re-entering data.

Here in this case also systems are able to communicate with one another without duplicating data entry. For example, practice management software and another for their electronic health record.

Water flows through a horizontal nozzle in steady flow at the rate of 10m3/s. The inlet and outlet diameters are d1 = 0.5m and d2
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

P₁ = 2.215 10⁷ Pa, F₁ = 4.3 106 N,

Explanation:

This problem of fluid mechanics let's start with the continuity equation to find the speed of water output

        Q = A v

        v = Q / A

The area of ​​a circle is

       A = π r² = π d² / 4

Let's look at the speeds at each point

       v₁ = Q / A₁ = Q 4 /π d₁²

       v₁ = 10 4 /π 0.5²

       v₁ = 50.93 m / s

       v₂ = Q / A₂

       v₂ = 10 4 /π 0.25²

       v₂ = 203.72 m / s

Now we can use Bernoulli's equation in the colon

       P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² + ρ g y₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂² + ρ g y₂

Since the tube is horizontal y₁ = y₂. The output pressure is P₂ = Patm = 1.013 10⁵ Pa, let's clear

       P₁ = P2 + ½ rho (v₂² - v₁²)

      P₁ = 1.013 10⁵ + ½ 1000 (203.72² - 50.93²)

      P₁ = 1.013 10⁵ + 2.205 10⁷

      P₁ = 2.215 10⁷ Pa

la definicion de presion es

      P₁ = F₁/A₁

     F₁ = P₁ A₁

     F₁ = 2.215 10⁷ pi d₁²/4

     F₁ = 2.215 10⁷ pi 0.5²/4

     F₁ = 4.3 106 N
