Answer:
a) t = 20 [s]
b) Can't land
Explanation:
To solve this problem we must use kinematics equations, it is of great importance to note that when the plane lands it slows down until it reaches rest, ie the final speed will be zero.
a)
where:
Vf = final velocity = 0
Vi = initial velocity = 100 [m/s]
a = desacceleration = 5 [m/s^2]
t = time [s]
Note: the negative sign of the equation means that the aircraft slows down as it stops.
0 = 100 - 5*t
5*t = 100
t = 20 [s]
b)
Now we can find the distance using the following kinematics equation.
x - xo = distance [m]
x -xo = (0*20) + (0.5*5*20^2)
x - xo = 1000 [m]
1000 [m] = 1 [km]
And the runaway is 0.8 [km], therefore the jetplane needs 1 [km] to land. So the jetpalne can't land
Answer:
Explanation:
<u>Accelerated Motion</u>
The acceleration of a moving body is defined as the relation of change of speed (or velocity in vector form) with the time taken. The formula is given by
Or, equivalently
Where vf and vo are the final and initial speeds respectively. The problem gives us these values: v0 = 3 m/s, vf = 1 m/s, t = 3 seconds. Computing a
The negative sing of a indicates there is deceleration or decreasing speed
Answer:
Point a
Explanation:
The potential energy of an object is given by :
P = mgh
m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, h is height above ground level.
Potential energy is directly proportional to the position of an object.
In the attached figure, the maximum height is shown at point (a). It means it will have maximum potential energy at a as compared to b,c and d.
