At the equator, the radius of the Earth is approximately 6370 km. A plane flies at a very low altitude at a constant speed of v

= 239 m/s. Upon landing, the plane can produce an average deceleration of a = 16.5 m/s².
How long will it take the plane to circle the Earth at the equator?

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of linear motion. From there we will define the distance as the circumference of the earth (approximate as a sphere). With the speed given in the statement we will simply clear the equations below and find the time.

R= 6370*10^3 m

v = 239m/s

a = 16.5m/s^2

The circumference of the earth would be

\phi = 2\pi R

Velocity is defined as,

v = \frac{x}{t}

t = \frac{x}{v}

Here x = \phi, then

t = \frac{\phi}{v} = \frac{2\pi (6370*10^3)}{239}

t = 167463.97s

Therefore will take 167463.97 s or 1 day 22 hours 31 minutes and 3.97seconds

Answer:

Acceleration = 4 m/s²

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Force = 8 N

Mass = 2 kg

To find the acceleration of the block;

Newton's Second Law of Motion states that the acceleration of a physical object is directly proportional to the net force acting on the physical object and inversely proportional to its mass.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Acceleration = \frac {Net \; force}{mass}

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Acceleration = \frac {8}{2}

Acceleration = 4 m/s²

Determine the potential difference between the ends of the wire of resistance 5 Ω if 720 C passes through it per minute.
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

The potential difference between the ends of a wire is 60 volts.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Resistance, R = 5 ohms

Charge, q = 720 C

Time, t = 1 min = 60 s

We know that the charge flowing per unit charge is called current in the circuit. It is given by :

I = 12 A

Let V is the potential difference between the ends of a wire. It can be calculated using Ohm's law as :

V = IR

V = 60 Volts

So, the potential difference between the ends of a wire is 60 volts. Hence, this is the required solution.

What will be the force if the particle's charge is tripled and the electric field strength is halved? Give your answer in terms
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

F' = (3/2)F

Explanation:

the formula for the electric field strength is given as follows:

E = F/q

where,

E = Electric Field Strength

F = Force due to the electric field

q = magnitude of charge experiencing the force

Therefore,

F = E q   ---------------- equation (1)

Now, if we half the electric field strength and make the magnitude of charge triple its initial value. Then the force will become:

F' = (E/2)(3 q)

F' = (3/2)(E q)

using equation (1)

<u>F' = (3/2)F</u>
