since airplane is thrown towards west with speed 6 m/s

while air is blowing with speed 8 m/s towards north

so here the net speed of air plane will be the resultant of airplane speed and wind speed always

SO here we can say it would be a combination of vector along west with must be of length 6 m/s and other vector is towards north with is of length 8 m/s

so correct answer must be 1st option

A man seeking to set a world record wants to tow a 101,000-kg airplane along a runway by pulling horizontally on a cable attache
NemiM [27]

Answer:

6.19 x 10^{-3} m/s^{2}

Explanation:

For this exercise we need to sum the forces on the y-axis and x-axis as follows:

∑F_{y} = N - mg = m.a_{y} = 0

From the exercise, we deduce there is no motion in y-axis, so:

N = mg

Then for x-axis we have:

∑F_{x} = H - f^{s} = m.a_{x} = 0

Now, from the exercise we deduce that we are looking for the greatest static friction which means to have the maximun static friction to start moving, so at this point the acceleration is zero, so we can find horizontal force (H), which then will act in the airplane to move it. Therefore we have:

H = f^{s} = f^{sma_{x} } = u_{s}N = u_{s}mg

H = (0.76)(84Kg)(9.8m/s^{2})

H = 625.63 N

Now we apply this force to the weight of the plane to find the greatest acceleration the mann can give to start moving the plane.

a = \frac{F}{m} = \frac{H}{m}

a = \frac{6325.63N}{101000Kg}

a = 6.19 x 10^{-3} m/s^{2}

The “turning effect of a force” (T = F * r) is:
Doss [256]

Answer:

b and e

Explanation:

r x F is the formula for torque.

The "turning effect" or torque happens when concentric forces rotate an object along said center.

a) False because T = Fr = Ia (a = angular acceleration)

b) True

c) False. L = Iw (w = angular velocity), which does not equal Ia

d) False. It is torque, not the product of torque and something else

e) True.

Which are ways to improve the design of this experiment? Check all that apply.
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

* Experiment with a higher range of materials

* Use a galvanometer.

* Vary in number of coils of the electromagnet

Explanation:

This is an experiment of electricity and magnetism, in general the best way to improve the results are:

* Experiment with a higher range of materials

   allowing to know the scope of the initial assumptions

* Use a galvanometer.

  The more accurate the readings the error of the derived quantities is the less which will improve the precision of the experiment.

* Vary in number of coils of the electromagnet

  Since it allows to have greater magnetic fields and therefore expand the range of measurements

What are the starting materials for nuclear fission
aliina [53]
In normal fission reactors, the fuel used to start the nuclear fission is Uranium-235. 
Generally, fuel rods enriched with uranium-235 are used to start the fission. When a nucleus of uranium-235 absorbs a neutron, it becomes unstable and then it breaks apart, producing two smaller nuclei, several neutrons and energy. The additional neutrons produced in the reaction are then absorbed by other nuclei of uranium-235, triggering other fission reactions, and so on.
