An air-plane has an effective wing surface area of 17.0 m² that is generating the lift force. In level flight the air speed over
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Surface area A= 17m²

The speed at the top v" = 66m/s

Speed beneath is v' =40 m/s

The density of air p =1.29kg/m³

Weight of plane?

Assuming that,

the height difference between the top and bottom of the wind is negligible and we can ignore any change in gravitational potential energy of the fluid.

Using Bernoulli equation

P'+ ½pv'²+ pgh' = P'' + ½pv''² + pgh''

Where

P' is pressure at the bottom in N/m²

P" is pressure at the top in N/m²

v' is velocity at the bottom in m/s

v" is velocity at the top in m/s

Then, Bernoulli equation becomes

P'+ ½pv'² = P'' + ½pv''²

Rearranging

P' — P'' = ½pv"² —½pv'²

P'—P" = ½p ( v"² —v'²)

P'—P" = ½ × 1.29 × (66²-40²)

P'—P" = 1777.62 N/m²

Lift force can be found from

Pressure = force/Area

Force = ∆P ×A

Force = (P' —P")×A

Since we already have (P'—P")

Then, F=W = (P' —P")×A

W = 1777.62 × 17

W = 30,219.54 N

The weight of the plane is 30.22 KN

What is the driving force for (a) heat transfer, (b) electric current, and (c) fluid flow?
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The driving force for (a) heat transfer is temperature difference. (b) electric current is voltage difference. (c) fluid flow is pressure or hydraulic head difference.

Explanation: (a) The driving force for heat transfer is temperature difference. Heat transfer between two mediums is possible only if the two mediums are at different temperature, the higher the temperature, the higher the heat transfer.

(b) The driving force for electric current is voltage difference. Voltage difference is defined as the potential difference in charge between two points in electrical field. For electric current to occur,the voltage must be high.

(c) The driving force for fluid flow is pressure difference or hydraulic head difference. For fluid to move upward,it requires energy.

What can be inferred when an atom is electrically charged?
Elena-2011 [213]

When an atom becomes electrically charged the number of electrons or protons stops and they are not equal again. The "extra" electron or proton is not balanced by something inside the atom any longer and it starts attracting itself to othet protons or electrons in other atoms.

<h3>What is atomic structure?</h3>

An atomic structure comprises of positively charged nucleus which is surrounded by negatively charged particles called electron and neutron which is neutral charged.

Unlike charges attract each other while like charges repel each other.

Therefore, When an electron is fully charged, the number of electrons will stop to be unequal again.

Horace has invented a unique pair of reading glasses that have two small light bulbs at the bottom wired in series, so that he c
ElenaW [278]

Answer:

The current drawn by Horace’s reading glasses is 0.8 A.

Explanation:  

Given that,

Resistance of each bulb, R = 2 ohms

Voltage of the system, V = 3.2 volts

These two bulbs are connected in series. The equivalent resistance will be 2 ohms +2 ohms = 4 ohms

Let I is the current drawn by Horace’s reading glasses. Using Ohm's law to find it such that :

V=IR\\\\I=\dfrac{V}{R}\\\\I=\dfrac{3.2}{4}\\\\I=0.8\ A

So, the current drawn by Horace’s reading glasses is 0.8 A.

The robot arm is elevating and extending simultaneously. At a given instant, θ = 30°, ˙ θ = 10 deg / s = constant θ˙=10 deg/s=co
motikmotik

Explanation:

The position vector r:

\overrightarrow{r(t)}=lcos\theta\hat{i}+lsin\theta\hat{j}

The velocity vector v:

\overrightarrow{v(t)}=\overrightarrow{\frac{dr}{dt}}=\dot{l}cos\theta-lsin\theta\dot{\theta}\hat{i}+\dot{l}sin\theta+lcos\theta\dot{\theta}\hat{j}

The acceleration vector a:

\overrightarrow{a(t)}}=cos\theta(\ddot{l}-l\dot{\theta}^2)-sin\theta(2\dot{l}\dot{\theta}+l\ddot{\theta})\hat{i}+cos\theta(2\dot{l}\dot{\theta}+l\ddot{\theta})+sin\theta(\ddot{l}-l\dot{\theta}^2)\hat{j}

\overrightarrow{v(t)}=0.13\hat{i}+0.18\hat{j}

\overrightarrow{a(t)}}=-0.3\hat{i}-0.1\hat{j}
