Answer:

L/D= 112

Explanation:

Aerodynamics can be defined as the branch of dynamics which deals with the motion of air, their properties and the interaction between the air and solid bodies.

Aerodynamics law explains how an airplane is able to fly. There are four forces of flight, and they are; lift, weight, thrust and drag. The amount of lift generated by a wing divided by the aerodynamic drag is known as the lift to drag ratio.

Lift increases proportionally to the square of the speed.

The solutions to the question is the file attached to this explanation.

Lift,L= qC(l). S---------------------------(1).

and,

Drag,D = qC(d).S ----------------------(2).

Hence, Lift to drag ratio,L/D= C(l)/C(d).

Therefore, we have to compute various angle of attack.(check attached file)...

Then, (L/D) will then be equal to 112.

Olegator [25]

Answer:

Explanation:

The correct option for the question is B that is salt water. In salt water, the density of water is higher so the pressure at the end of tube containing salt water will be greater. As according to the hydrostatic law the pressure at a given point will be directly proportional to the distance travelled as well.

How does the Earth release energy back into the atmosphere?

JulsSmile [24]

In general, the Earth releases energy back to the atmosphere through reflection, evaporation, and radiation. The Earth gets energy from the sunlight, part of which it absorbs, while part it reflects backwards, thus giving energy to the atmosphere. Also, the heating up of the Earth by the absorbed sunlight, radiates back in the lower layers of the atmosphere, again giving back energy to it. The water vapor is another way in which the Earth gives back energy tot he atmosphere as through the evaporation, the water vapor gets into the lower parts of the atmosphere and gives energy to it.

A baseball has mass 0.145 kg.

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

a).p=15.67kg*m/s

b). F=7.83N

Explanation:

change in momentum is the subtraction from "after momentum" of the "before momentum" as momentum is a vector quantity this is a vector subtraction.

initial momentum of ball

m1v1 = (0.145)(44.0) = 6.38 kg-m/s

after momentum

m1v2 = (0.145)(64.0) = 9.28 kg-m/s

since these momentums are 180° opposite one must be called negative so their difference

6.38+9.28= 15.67 kg-m/s

change in momentum = 15.67 kg-m/s ANS a1

Impulse = change in momenutm = 15.67 ANS a2

Impulse =Favg*t

I=(2.00)Favg

Impulse from (a2) = 15.67

Favg = 15.67/2.00 =

F= 7.83 N
