Answer:

Horizontal component of velocity = 241.61 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity of a jetliner is 245 m/s

The vertical component of the plane's velocity is 40.6 m/s, v_y=40.6\ m/s

We need to find the magnitude of the horizontal component of the plane velocity.

The resultant velocity is given by :

v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}

Where, v_x is the horizontal component of the plane velocity

v^2=v_x^2+v_y^2\\\\v_x^2=v^2-v_y^2\\\\v_x^2=(245)^2-(40.6)^2\\\\v_x=\sqrt{58376.64}\\\\v_x=241.61\ m/s

So, the magnitude of the horizontal component of the plane velocity is 241.61 m/s.

  • Mass=m=142kg
  • Acceleration=a=30m/s
  • Force=F

Using Newton's second law

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow F=ma

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow F=142(30)

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow F=4260N

gtnhenbr [62]
The first rule of vectors is that the horizontal and vertical components are separate. Disregarding air resistance, the only thing we have to worry about is gravity.

The appropriate suvat to use for the vertical component is v = u +at
I will take a to be -9.81, you may have to change it to be 10 if your qualification likes g to be 10.

v = 30 + (-9.81x2)
v = 30 - 19.62
=10.38m/s

Therefore we know that after 2.0 s the vertical component will be 10.38ms^-1, ie 10m/s as the answers given are all to 2sf.

The horizontal component is completely separate to the vertical component and since there is no air resistance, it will remain constant throughout the projectiles trajectory. Therefore it will remain at 40ms^-1.

Combining this together we get:
(1) vx=40m/s and vy=10m/s

Consider two uniform solid spheres where both have the same diameter, but one has twice the mass of the other. how much larger i
egoroff_w [7]
<span>The moment of inertia of the large sphere will be twice that of the smaller sphere.
   The formula for the moment of inertia for a solid sphere is:
 I = (2/5)mr^2
 where
 I = moment of inertia
 m = mass
  r = radius

   Since both spheres have the same diameter, they also have the same radius, so the only change is their mass. And the moment of inertia is directly proportional to their mass as shown by the above formula. So the sphere with twice the mass will have twice the moment of inertia, or 2 times.</span>
