An airplane is flying horizontally with a constant momentum during a time interval ?t. (a) Is there a net impulse acting on the
1 answer:
Answer:
Explanation:
Given
Airplane is flying with horizontally with a constant momentum during time interval
Impulse is given by change in momentum, so there is no net impulse on the Plane because momentum is constant
(b) As there is no change in momentum therefore impulse of thrust and air drag is balanced i.e. both are equal in magnitude but act in opposite direction

Explanation:
If there are no friction forces acting on the cart, we can apply the law of conservation of energy: the mechanical energy of the cart (which is the sum of potential energy + kinetic energy) must be conserved. So we can write:
where
is the initial potential energy, at point A, with
m = 980 kg (mass of the cart)
(acceleration of gravity)
(height at point A)
is the initial kinetic energy, at point A
, with
(velocity at point A)
is the final potential energy, at point B, where
(height at point B)
is the final kinetic energy, at point B, where
is the velocity at point B
Here we are interested in finding , so by re-arranging the equation and substituting we find:
