Calculate the ratio of the drag force on a jet flying at 1190 km/h at an altitude of 7.5 km to the drag force on a prop-driven t

ransport flying at half that speed and altitude. The density of air is 0.53 kg/m3 at 7.5 km and 0.74 kg/m3 at 3.8 km. Assume that the airplanes have the same effective cross-sectional area and drag coefficient C.

Answer:

\frac{D_{jet}}{D_{prop}}=2.865

Explanation:

Given data

Speed of jet Vjet=1190 km/h

Speed of prop driven Vprop=595 km/h

Height of jet 7.5 km

Height of prop driven transport 3.8 km

Density of Air at height 10 km p7.8=0.53 kg/m³

Density of air at height 3.8 km p3.8=0.74 kg/m³

The drag force is given by:

D=\frac{1}{2}CpAv^2\\

The ratio between the drag force on the jet to the drag force  on prop-driven transport is then given by:

\frac{D_{jet}}{D_{prop}}=\frac{(1/2)Cp_{7.5}Av_{jet}^2}{1/2)Cp_{3.8}Av_{prop}^2} \\\frac{D_{jet}}{D_{prop}}=\frac{p_{7.5}v_{jet}^2}{p_{3.8}v_{prop}}\\\frac{D_{jet}}{D_{prop}}=\frac{(0.53)(1190)^2}{(0.74)(595)^2}\\   \frac{D_{jet}}{D_{prop}}=2.865

Is your increase in gravitational potential energy the same in both cases? When Climbing a mountain on a zigzag path and on a st
baherus [9]

Answer:

The increase in gravitational potential energy is the same in both cases

Explanation:

It is easier to climb a mountain in a zigzag way rather than climbing on a straight line but since the distance is the same ( vertical height ) , mass and gravity is the same. Hence the increase in gravitational potential energy is the same in both cases.

gravitational potential energy = mgh ( same in both cases )

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = distance ( vertical height )

const2013 [10]

Answer:

The answer to your question is    vo = 5.43 m/s

Explanation:

Data

distance = d= 5.8 m

height = 3 m

height 2 = 1.7 m

angle = 60°

vo = ?

g = 9.81 m/s²

Formula

              hmax = vo²sinФ/ 2g

Solve for vo²

              vo² = 2ghmax / sinФ

Substitution

              vo² = 2(9.81)(3 - 1.7) / 0.866

Simplification

              vo² = 19.62(1.3) / 0.866

              vo² = 25.51 / 0.866

              vo² = 29.45

Result

              vo = 5.43 m/s
