Answer:

Force = 2802.8 Newton

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 130 lbs

But, 2.2 lbs = 1.0 kg

130 lbs to kg = 130 * 2.2 = 286 kg

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

To find the force in Newton;

Force = mass * acceleration due to gravity

Force = 286 * 9.8

Force = 2802.8 Newton

a plane flying due east at 395 km/h, is hit by wind blowing at 55 km/h toward the west. what is the resultant velocity of the pl

Aleonysh [2.5K]

In this case, you simply use subtraction to find out the velocity. If the plane is flying at 395 km/h and is being blown by 55 km.h wind the other way, the velocity of the plane is 395 - 55.

395 km/h - 55 km/h = 340 km/h

So, the final velocity of the plane is 340 km/h east.
