D=Vot+1/2at^2

Vot= 0 since there is no initial velocity in the y direction.

a=gravitational acceleration which is - 32 ft/s^2 in imperial units I believe.

She travels a distance of -2 miles, so

-2 miles= 1/2(-32ft/s^2)t^2

t= square root((- 4 miles)/(-32ft/s^2))

I don't know imperial units, but convert miles to feet then solve for t.

An airplane weighing 11,000 N climbs to a
Gennadij [26K]

The power in horsepower is 40.1 hp

Explanation:

We start by calculating the work done by the airplane during the climb, which is equal to its change in gravitational potential energy:

W=(mg)\Delta h

where

mg = 11,000 N is the weight of the airplane

\Delta h = 1.6 km = 1600 m is the change in height

Substituting,

W=(11,000)(1600)=17.6\cdot 10^6 J

Now we can calculate the power delivered, which is given by

P=\frac{W}{t}

where

W=17.6\cdot 10^6 J is the work done

t=9.8 min \cdot 60 = 588 s is the time taken

Substituting,

P=\frac{17.6\cdot 10^6 J}{588}=2.99\cdot 10^4 W

Finally, we can convert the power into horsepower (hp), keeping in mind that

1 hp = 746 W

Therefore,

P=\frac{2.99\cdot 10^4}{746}=40.1 hp

What are two situational examples of unbalanced forces?
polet [3.4K]

An example of a balanced force is two cards leaning against each other and not falling over, or two football players blocking each other but neither overpowering the other. An example of an unbalanced force is two cards leaning on each other then falling over, or two football players blocking each other, then one tackles the other.

2. A 1.30-m long gas column that is open at one end and closed at the other end has a fundamental resonant frequency 80.0 Hz. Wh
Elina [12.6K]

To solve this problem, it will be necessary to apply the concepts related to the fundamental resonance frequency in a closed organ pipe.

This is mathematically given as

f_n (2n+1)(\frac{v}{4L})

For fundamental frequency n is 0, then,

f_0 = \frac{v}{4L}

When,

v = Velocity of sound

L = Length,

Rearranging to find the velocity,

v = f_0 (4L)

v = (80Hz)(4)(1.3m)

v = 416m/s

Therefore the speed of sound in this gas is 416m/s
