A medium-sized jet has a 3.8-mm-diameter fuselage and a loaded mass of 85,000 kg. The drag on an airplane is primarily due to th

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

$F_{thrust}$ ≅ 111 KN

Explanation:

Given that;

A medium-sized jet has a 3.8-mm-diameter i.e diameter (d) = 3.8

mass = 85,000 kg

drag co-efficient (C) = 0.37

(velocity (v)= 230 m/s

density (ρ) = 1.0 kg/m³

To calculate the thrust; we need to determine the relation of the drag force; which is given as:

$F_{drag}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$ × CρAv²

where;

ρ = density of air wind.

C = drag co-efficient

A = Area of the jet

v = velocity of the jet

From the question, we can deduce that the jet is in motion with a constant speed; as such: the net force acting on the jet in the air = 0

SO, $F_{drag}-F_{thrust} = 0$

We can as well say:

$F_{drag}= F_{thrust}$

We can now replace $F_{thrust} with F_{drag}$ in the above equation.

Therefore, $F_{thrust}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$ × CρAv²

The A which stands as the area of the jet is given by the formula:

$A=\frac{\pi d^2}{4}$

We can now have a new equation after substituting our A into the previous equation as:

$F_{thrust}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$ × Cρ $(\frac{\pi d^2}{4})v^2$

Substituting our data from above; we have:

$F_{thrust}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$ × $(0.37)(1.0kg/m^3)(\frac{\pi(3.8m)^2 }{4})(230m/s)^2$

$F_{thrust}$ = $\frac{1}{8} (0.37)(1.0kg/m^3)({\pi(3.8m)^2 })(230m/s)^2$

$F_{thrust}$ = 110,990N

$F_{thrust}$ in N (newton) to KN (kilo-newton) will be:

$F_{thrust}$ = $(110,990N)*\frac{1KN}{1,000N}$

$F_{thrust}$ = 110.990 KN

$F_{thrust}$ ≅ 111 KN

In conclusion, the jet engine needed to provide 111 KN thrust in order to cruise at 230 m/s at an altitude where the air density is 1.0 kg/m³.

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

number of pulses produced = 162 pulses

Explanation:

give data

radius = 50 mm

encoder produces = 256 pulses per revolution

linear displacement = 200 mm

solution

first we consider here roll shaft encoder on the flat surface without any slipping

we get here now circumference that is

circumference = 2 π r .........1

circumference = 2 × π × 50

circumference = 314.16 mm

so now we get number of pulses produced

number of pulses produced = $\frac{linear\ displacement}{circumference}$ × No of pulses per revolution .................2

number of pulses produced = $\frac{200}{314.16}$ × 256

number of pulses produced = 162 pulses
