Answer:

Explanation:

It's Newton's first law of motion, and object in motion continues to stay in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. In this case, your body is the force that's moving on the bus. When you jump(the unbalanced force) your body is still used to being in motion, which makes you fall and not land on your feet.

An airplane has wings, each with area A, designed so that air flows over the top of the wing at 265 m/s and underneath the wing

exis [7]

Answer

given,

Pressure on the top wing = 265 m/s

speed of underneath wings = 234 m/s

mass of the airplane = 7.2 × 10³ kg

density of air = 1.29 kg/m³

using Bernoulli's equation

$P_1 + \dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_1^2 = P_2 + \dfrac{1}{2}\rho v_2^2$

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

$\Delta P =\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.29\times (265^2-234^2)$

$\Delta P =9977.5 Pa$

Applying newtons second law

2 Δ P x A - mg = 0

$A =\dfrac{mg}{2\Delta P}$

$A =\dfrac{7.2\times 10^3 \times 9.8}{2\times 9977.5}$

A = 3.53 m²

The cross section of a copper strip is 1.2 mmthick and 20 mm wide. There is a 25-A current through this cross section, with the

Naily [24]

To solve this problem it is necessary to use the concepts related to the Hall Effect and Drift velocity, that is, at the speed that an electron reaches due to a magnetic field.

The drift velocity is given by the equation:

$V_d = \frac{I}{nAq}$
