In 1976, a 53 kg helicopter was built in Denmark. Suppose this helicopter flew east with a speed of 60.0 m/s and the total momen

tum of the helicopter and pilot was 7,200 kg∙m/s to the east. What was the mass of the pilot?

Answer:

67 kg.

Explanation:

From the question,

Total momentum = (mass of the pilot+ mass of the helicopter)×velocity.

I = (m+M)v............................... Equation 1

Where I = Total momentum of the pilot and the helicopter, m = mass of the pilot, M = mass of the helicopter, v = velocity.

make m the subject of the equation

m = (I/v)-M.............................. Equation 2

Given: I = 7200 kg.m/s, v = 60 m/s, M = 53 kg.

Substitute these values into equation 2

m = (7200/60)-53

m = 120-53

m = 67 kg.

Hence the mass of the pilot is 67 kg

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

\phi_i = BA

Explanation:

magnetic flux is the count of magnetic field lines passing through a given loop or area

As we know that magnetic flux is given by the formula

\phi = \vec B. \vec A

here we also know that magnetic field B and plane of the coil is perpendicular in initial position

So the area vector is always perpendicular to the plane of the coil

so the angle between magnetic field and area vector is parallel to each other and this angle would be zero

so magnetic flux of the coil initially we have

\phi = BAcos0 = BA
