The speed of an aircraft is sometimes expressed as a mach number: mach 1 means that the speed is equal to the speed of sound. if

you wish to determine the speed of an aircraft going mach 2.2, for example, in meters per second or miles per hour, what additional information do you need?

<span>The speed of sound needs to be given, in the proper form. This will allow for the proper conversion (namely, a multiplication by the Mach rate) to find the actual speed that the aircraft is traveling, compared to how fast sound travels.</span>

A 15.0-m uniform ladder weighing 500 N rests against a frictionless wall. The ladder makes a 60.08 angle with the horizontal. (a
grigory [225]

Answer:

a)  fr = 266.92 N,   fy = 1300 N,  b)    μ = 0.36

Explanation:

a) This is a balancing act.

Let's write the rotational equilibrium relations, where the turning point is the bottom of the ladder and the counterclockwise rotations are positive

             -w x - W x₂ + R y = 0         (1)

usemso trigonometry to find distances

            cos 60.08 = x / 7.5

            x = 7.5 cos 60.08

            x = 3.74 m

fireman

           cos 60.08 = x₂ / 4

           x2 = 4 cos 60

           x2 = 2 m

wall support

           sin 60.08 = y / 15

           y = 15 are 60.08

           y = 13 m

we substitute in equation 1

           R y = w x + W x2

            R = (w x + W x2) / y

            R = (500 3.74 +800 2) / 13

            R = 266.92 N

now let's write the expressions for the translational equilibrium

X axis

           R -fr = 0

           R = fr

           fr = 266.92 N

Y Axis  

           Fy - w-W = 0

           fy = 500 + 800

           fy = 1300 N

b) ask the friction coefficient

the firefighter's distance is

          cos 60.08 = x₃ / 9.00

          x₃ = 9 cos 60

          x₃ = 5.28 m

from equation 1

          R = (w x + W x₃) / y

          R = 500 3.74 + 800 5.28) / 13

          R = 468.769 N

we saw that

          fr = R = 468.769

The expression for the friction force is

          fr = μ N

in this case the normal is the ratio to pesos

        N = Fy

       N = 1300 N

        μ N = fr

        μ = fr / N

        μ = 468,769 / 1300

         μ = 0.36

A group of hikers hear an echo 3.3 s after they shout. The temperature is 20◦C.
romanna [79]

Answer:

560 m

Explanation:

The speed of sound in air is approximately:

v ≈ v₀ + 0.6T

where v₀ is the speed of sound at 0°C (273 K) in m/s, and T is the temperature in Celsius.

The speed of sound at 20°C at that altitude is:

v ≈ 327 + 0.6(20)

v ≈ 339 m/s

The sound travels from the hikers to the mountain and back again, so it travels twice the distance.

339 m/s = 2d / 3.3 s

2d = 1118.7 m

d = 559.35 m

Rounding, the mountain is approximately 560 m away.

The linear impulse delivered by the hit of a boxer is 202 N · s during the 0.244 s of contact. What is the magnitude of the aver
zlopas [31]

Answer: Magnitude of the average force exerted on the glove by the other boxer is 827.86 N (approximately 828 N).

Explanation: Impulse is defined as the force acting on an object for a short period or interval of time.

Mathematically it is given by the relation:

Impulse = Force \times Time

According to the numerical values given in the question, I = 202 Ns and T = 0.244 s

So, Force F = \frac{Impulse}{Time} = \frac{202}{0.244} = 827.86 N

Magnitude of the average force exerted on the glove by the other boxer is 827.86 N (approximately 828 N).
