How is solar impulse is different than conventional airplane

Physics
1 answer:
Nadusha1986 [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Solar Impulse is a Swiss long-range experimental solar-powered aircraft project and Conventional Aircraft are the atmosphere-only aircraft that have been around since the Wright Flyer's first takeoff. Though modern craft are much more advanced and capable than that early model, Conventional Aircraft have been superseded in modern times by the AeroSpace Fighter, which can operate in both atmosphere and space.

Tyrone, an 85-kg teenager, runs off the end of a horizontal pier and lands on a free-floating 130-kg raft that was initially at
Ghella [55]

Answer:u=4.04 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Mass m=85 kg

mass of Raft M=130 kg

velocity of raft and man  v=1.6 m/s

Let initial speed of Tyrone is u

Conserving Momentum as there is no external Force

mu=(M+m)v

85\times u=(85+130)\cdot 1.6

u=\frac{215}{85}\cdot 1.6

u=2.529\cdot 1.6=4.04 m/s

On a trip to the Colorado Rockies, you notice that when the freeway goes steeply down a hill, there are emergency exits every fe
Zanzabum

Answer:

The maximum speed that the truck can have and still be stopped by the 100m road is the speed that it can go and be stopped at exactly 100m. Since there is no friction, this problem is similar to a projectile problem. You can think of the problem as being a ball tossed into the air except here you know the highest point and you are looking for the initial velocity needed to reach that point. Also, in this problem, because there is an incline, the value of the acceleration due to gravity is not simply g; it is the component of gravity acting parallel to the incline. Since we are working parallel to the plane, also keep in mind that the highest point is given in the problem as 100m. Solving for the initial velocity needed to have the truck stop after 100m, you should find that the maximum velocity the truck can have and be stopped by the road is 18.5 m/s.

The speed of sound in air is approximately 340 m/s. The speed of light in air is approximately 3 x 108 m/s. If 10 seconds elapse
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

3400 m

Explanation:

Both lightning and thunder happen at the same time but one is faster than the other. The distance traveled by a sound can be calculated from its speed such that;

 speed = distance/time, hence, distance = speed x time.

<em>For a thunder with 340 m/s speed and 10 seconds away from lightning, the distance between the thunder and the lightning can be calculated as</em>;

distance = 340 m/s x 10 s = 3400 m

Heather and Jerry are standing on a bridge 49 mm above a river. Heather throws a rock straight down with a speed of 17 m/sm/s .
lara [203]

Answer:

3.467 s

Explanation:

given,

distance , d = 49 mm = 0.049 m

initial speed of the of the rock, v = 17 m/s

time taken by the Heather rock to reach water

using equation of motion

s = ut +\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

taking downward as negative

-0.049 = -17 t -\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times t^2

4.9 t² + 17 t - 0.049 = 0

now,

t_1 = \dfrac{-(17)\pm \sqrt{17^2 - 4\times 4.9 \times (-0.049)}}{2\times 4.9}

t₁ = -3.47 s , 0.0028 s

rejecting negative values

t₁ = 0.0028 s

now, time taken by the ball of Jerry

using equation of motion

s = ut +\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

taking downward as negative

-0.049 = 17 t -\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times t^2

4.9 t² - 17 t - 0.049 = 0

now,

t_2 = \dfrac{-(-17)\pm \sqrt{17^2 - 4\times 4.9 \times (-0.049)}}{2\times 4.9}

t₂ = 3.47 s ,-0.0028 s

rejecting negative values

t₂ = 3.47 s

now, time elapsed is = t₂ - t₁ = 3.47 - 0.0028 = 3.467 s

At a given moment in time, instantaneous speed can be thought of as the magnitude of instantaneous
kaheart [24]

At a given moment in time, the instantaneous speed can be thought of as the magnitude of instantaneous velocity.

Instantaneous speed is the magnitude of the instantaneous velocity, the instantaneous velocity has direction but the instantaneous speed does not have any direction. Hence, the instantaneous speed has the same value as that of the magnitude of the instantaneous velocity. It doesn't have any direction.
