An attack helicopter is equipped with a 20- mm cannon that fires 87 g shells in the forward direction with a muzzle speed of 853
uysha [10]

Answer

given,

mass of the shell = 87 g = 0.087 Kg

speed of the muzzle = 853 m/s

mass of the helicopter = 4410 kg

A burst of 176 shell fired in 2.93 s

resulting average force = ?

momentum of the shell = m v

                                       = 0.087 x 853

                                       = 74.21 kgm/s

momentum of 176 shell is = 176 p

                                          = 176 x 74.21

                                          = 13060.96

momentum of helicopter = - 13060.96 kgm/s

amount of speed reduce a = \dfrac{13060.96}{M}

                                          a= \dfrac{13060.96}{4410}

                                          a = 2.96 m/s²

velocity  = \dfrac{2.96}{2.93}

      v = 1.01 m/s

Two wires are made of the same material. Wire 1 has length that is 1.35 times the length of wire 2 and diameter that is 0.91 tim
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

1.117935:1

Explanation:

Since the wires are of the same material, they will have the same resistivity \rho.

The cross-sectional area of the of a wire is given by;

A=\pi\frac{d^2}{4}................(1)

where d is the diameter of the wire.

Also, the relationship between resistance R, cross-sectional area A and length l of a wire is given as follows;

\rho=\frac{RA}{l}..................(2)

Since the resistivity same for both wires, say wire 1 and wire 2, we can wreite the following;

\frac{R_1A_1}{l_1}=\frac{R_2A_2}{l_2}..................(3)

Hence from eqaution (3), the ration of wire 1 to 2 is expressed as;

\frac{R_1}{R_2}=\frac{l_1A_2}{l_2A_1}..................(4)

Given;

l_1=1.35l_2

\frac{R_1}{R_2}=\frac{1.35l_2A_2}{l_2A_1}\\\frac{R_1}{R_2}=\frac{1.35A_2}{A_1}.............(5)

We then use equation (1) to fine the ratio of the area A_1 to A_2

bearing in mind that d_1=0.91d_2

This ratio gives 0.8281. Substituting this into equation (5), we get the following;

\frac{R_1}{R_2}= 1.35*0.8281=1.117935

Describe how visible light is used with solar photovoltaic panels to produce electricity
padilas [110]
Solar panels convert the sun's light into usable solar energy using N-type and P-type semiconductor material. When sunlight is absorbed by these materials, the solar energy knocks electrons loose from their atoms, allowing the electrons to flow through the material to produce electricity.

Four springs are stretched to the same distance from the equilibrium position. The spring constants are listed in the table.
Natalka [10]
The Hook's law states that F=Ke, where 
F⇒force applied to the spring,
e⇒extension of the spring and 
K⇒spring constant. 
Spring constant determines the strength of the spring. The larger the spring constant the stronger the spring it is. 
The list from the greatest to list is:

The earth's radius is 6.37×106m; it rotates once every 24 hours.
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Speed of the point = 1.541 × 10⁶ m/h = 428 m/s

Explanation:

Modelling the earth as a sphere,

The equator and the pole have a length of an arc that's fully 90° of the whole 360° circular circumference.

A point located 1/4 of the length of the arc between the equator and the pole has an angle (1/4) × 90° arc = 22.5°.

On the attached image, θ = 22.5°, so Φ = 90° - 22.5° = 67.5°

To obtain the radius of the point on the globe

From the image again, it shows that trigonometric relations can be used to obtain this radius

Sin Φ = (radius of the point)/(radius of the earth)

Sin 67.5 = radius of the point/(6.37 × 10⁶)

Radius of the point = 6.37 × 10⁶ × 0.9239 = 5.885 × 10⁶ m

Speed of the point on the globe = (circumference of the circular path mapped out by the point during rotation)/(24 hours)

circumference of the circular path mapped out by the point during rotation = 2πr = 2π × 5.885 × 10⁶ = 3.6977 × 10⁷ m

Speed of the point = 3.6977 × 10⁷/24 = 1.541 × 10⁶ m/h = 428 m/s
