Answer:

Fa = 5000 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

Let's assume that the movement of the plane is to the right, any movement or force to the right will be marked with a positive sign, while any force or movement to the left, will be taken as negative.

The force of the turbine drives the plane to the right, therefore it is positive, the acceleration is constant and keeps the movement to the right, therefore it is positive, the wind drag force tries to prevent the movement of the plane to the left therefore it is negative, with this analysis we deduce the following equation.

ΣF = m*a

where:

ΣF = sum of forces [N] (units of Newtons)

m = mass = 65000 [kg]

a = acceleration = 3 [m/s²]

Fa = force exerted by the air [N]

200000 - Fa = 65000*3

Fa = 200000 - (3*65000)

Fa = 5000 [N]

bulgar [2K]

The SI unit of force is the Newton.

1 newton is the force that accelerates a 1 kilogram mass
at the rate of 1 meter per second².

1 pound of force is equivalent to roughly  4.448 newtons.

(1 newton is equivalent to roughly  0.225  pounds of force.)

What would be the kinetic energy of an arrow having a potential energy of 50 J after it is shot from a bow?
klasskru [66]

Answer:

The kinetic energy of the arrow is equaled to the potential energy of the stretching of the bow, which in this case is 50 J.

Explanation:

Potential energy converts to kinetic as soon as it begins to move.
