Tim and Rick both can run at speed vr and walk at speed vw, with vr>vw. They set off together on a journey of distance D. Ric

k walks half of the distance and runs the other half. Tim walks half of the time and runs the other half.
1. How long does it take Rick to cover the distance D?
2. Find Rick's average speed for covering the distance D.
3. How long does it take Tim to cover the distance?
4. Who covers the distance D more quickly?

Answer:

Explanation:

1

t = D/2(vw) + D/2(vr)

2

V(ave) = 2.v(r).v(w) / [v(r) + v(w)]

3

t(T) = 2D / [v(w) + v(r)]

4

Tim does

Answer:

6 m/s

Explanation:

p=mv

p=3 kg.m/s

m=0.5 kg

rearrange and substitute to find v:

(3)=(0.5)v

v=3/0.5

v=6 m/s

A jet transport has a weight of 2.25 x 106 N and is at rest on the runway. The two rear wheels are 16.0 m behind the front wheel
Rudik [331]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Weight of jet

W = 2.25 × 10^6 N

It is at rest on the run way.

Two rear wheels are 16m behind the front wheel

Center of gravity of plane 10.6m behind the front wheel

A. Normal force entered on the ground by front wheel.

Taking moment about the the about the real wheel.

Check attachment for better understanding

So,

Clock wise moment = anti-clockwise moment

W × 5.4 = N × 16

2.25 × 10^6 × 5.4 = 16•N

N = 2.25 × 10^6 × 5.4 / 16

N = 7.594 × 10^5 N

B. Normal force on each of the rear two wheels.

Using the second principle of equilibrium body.

Let the rear wheel normal be Nr and note, the are two real wheels, then, there will be two normal forces

ΣFy = 0

Nr + Nr + N — W = 0

2•Nr = W—N

2•Nr = 2.25 × 10^6 — 7.594 × 10^5

2•Nr = 1.491 × 10^6

Nr = 1.491 × 10^6 / 2

Nr = 7.453 × 10^5 N
