<h2>Answer: Kitty Hawk, North Carolina </h2>

The Wright brothers, Wilbur and Orville, were pioneers of aviation, since they flew in a device heavier than air, which was inconceivable at that time.

Their first successful flight was on December 17th, 1903 in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, which lasted only 12 seconds in which their plane (the Flyer I, with 341 kg, 6.4 m long and a wingspan of 12.3 m) traveled 37 m without touching the ground. This was achieved through the help of an external catapult that "threw" them into the air.

It should be noted that the Wright brothers only studied until high school, however, their passion for solving the problem of the human inability to fly, their perseverance and experience acquired over the years in their bicycle company, led them to reach that goal. An achievement that marked the beginning of the  aviation era.

A vaulter holds a 26.90-N pole in equilibrium by exerting an upward force U with her leading hand and a downward force D with he
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

Check attachment for better understanding

Explanation:

Given that

a= 0.75m

b=1.31m

c= 2.2m

Weight of pole is 26.90

Then, Fg = Weight = 26.90

Using Equilibrium of forces

ΣFy = 0

U — D — Fg = 0

U — D = Fg

U — D = 26.9

To calculate U,

We will take moment about point A.

ΣMa = 0

Let the clockwise moment be positive and anti-clockwise be negative

Fg(a+b) — U(a) = 0

26.9(1.31+0.75) —0.75U = 0

26.9(2.06) = 0.75U

0.75U = 55.414

U = 55.414/0.75

U = 73.89 N

To calculate D,

U — D = 26.9

73.89—D =26.9

73.89—26.9 = D

D = 46.99N

Margy is trying to improve her cardio endurance by performing an exercise in which she alternates walking and running 100.0 m ea
Kipish [7]

Answer:

6.5 m/s

Explanation:

We are given that

Distance, s=100 m

Initial speed, u=1.4 m/s

Acceleration, a=0.20 m/s^2

We have to find the final velocity at the end of the 100.0 m.

We know that

v^2-u^2=2as

Using the formula

v^2-(1.4)^2=2\times 0.20\times 100

v^2-1.96=40

v^2=40+1.96

v^2=41.96

v=\sqrt{41.96}

v=6.5 m/s

Hence, her final velocity at the end of the 100.0 m=6.5 m/s
