An airplane has an effective wing surface area of 19.4 m2 that is generating the lift force. In level flight the air speed over

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

W =23807.68 N

Explanation:

given,

surface area of wing = 19.4 m²

speed over top wing = 67 m/s

speed under wing = 51 m/s

density of air = 1.3 kg/m³

weight of plane

From Bernoulli's principle

$P_1 + \dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = P_2 + \dfrac{1}{2}\rho_2^2$

where 1 and 2 are two different locations at the same geo potential level

so if we call 1 the lower surface and 2 the upper surface,

we find the pressure differential, P₁ -P₂

$\Delta P =\dfrac{1}{2}\rho (v_2^2-v_1^2)$

$\Delta P =\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.3 \times (67^2-51^2)$

$\Delta P =1227.2\ N/m^2$

then the force acting on the plane is

F=P A

F=1227.2 x 19.4

F =23807.68 N

weight of the plane

W =23807.68 N

. One long wire carries a current of 30 A along the entire x axis. A second-long wire carries a current of 40 A perpendicular to

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

magnitude of net magnetic field at given point is

$B = 5 \times 10^{-6} T$

Explanation:

As we know that magnetic field due to a long current carrying wire is given as

$B = \frac{\mu_o i}{2\pi r}$

here we we will find the magnetic field due to wire which is along x axis is given as

$i = 30 A$

r = 2 m

now we have

$B_1 = \frac{4\pi \times 10^{-7} (30)}{2\pi (2m)}$

$B_1 = 3\times 10^{-6} T$ into the plane

Now similarly magnetic field due to another wire which is perpendicular to xy plane is given as

$i = 40 A$

r = 2 m

now we have

$B_2 = \frac{4\pi \times 10^{-7} (40)}{2\pi (2m)}$

$B_2 = 4\times 10^{-6} T$ along + x direction

Since the two magnetic field is perpendicular to each other

So here net magnetic field is given as

$B = \sqrt{B_1^2 + B_2^2}$

$B = 5 \times 10^{-6} T$

What is the frequency of a tuning fork that vibrates 518 times in 3.50 s?

Serga [27]

Given:

The number of vibrations of the tuning fork is,

$51\text{8 times}$

in,

$t=3.50\text{ s}$

To find:

The frequency of the fork

Explanation:

The frequency is the number of vibrations in 1 second

The frequency for the given fork is,

$\begin{gathered} \frac{The\text{ total vibrations}}{The\text{ time}} \\ =\frac{518}{3.50} \\ =148\text{ Hz} \end{gathered}$

Hence, the frequency is 148 Hz.

How did scientists determine the age of the ocean floor

Umnica [9.8K]

the layers of rocks, the ancient treasures that are at the bottom of the sea, how old the coral is. But I don't think they determined how old it is, how would the dinosaurs that lived in water swim or any drink water. I don't know if this helps but hopefully it does. Also scientist have made advanced tech that could help with the age determination of the ocean floor.

If you seal a container of air at room temperature (20.0 degrees celcius) and then put it in the refrigerator (2.00 degrees celc

zheka24 [161]

The pressure inside the container will be <u>9.39×10⁴Pa</u>

At constant volume, the pressure in a container is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.

If air in a container is sealed at 20⁰C at a pressure equal to the atmospheric pressure and cooled to 2.00⁰C, the pressure inside the container falls.

Convert the temperature in Celsius to Kelvin.

$T_1=20.0^oC+273.15=293.15K\\T_2=2.00^oC+273.15=275.15K$

Use the expression for the pressure law.

$\frac{P_2}{P_1} =\frac{T_2}{T_1}$

Substitute 100,000 Pa for P₁, 293.16 K for T₁ and 275.15K for T₂.

$\frac{P_2}{P_1} =\frac{T_2}{T_1}\\ P_2=P_1(\frac{T_2}{T_1})\\ =(100,000Pa)(\frac{275.15K}{293.15K} )\\ =9.386*10^4Pa$

The pressure in the container (correct to 2 sf) is <u>9.39×10⁴Pa</u>
