A package falls from an airplane in level flight at constant speed. If air resistance can be neglected, how does the motion of t

Answer: The package appears to fall straight downward

Explanation:

When the package is dropped from the plane (which has constant speed) it will follow a parabolic path. Then, as the plane and the package have the same constant speed in the horizontal component (X component of the movement) and a constant vertical acceleration due gravity, from the plane the package will always be seen below it, falling straight downward (free fall).

This is possible if it is assumed that there are no additional horizontal forces such as air resistance, thus fulfilling Newton's 1st Law of inertia that estates if a body is in equilibrium the sum of all the forces acting on it is equal to zero.

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

XY=636N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Distance d=0.35m

Angle \theta=32\textdegree

Force F=750N

Generally the equation for magnitude of the stabilizing component of the brachialis force is mathematically given by

 XY=Fcos\theta

 XY=750cos 32\textdegree

 XY=636N

A sliver cylindrical rod has a length of 0.5 m and a radius of 0.4 m, find the density of the rod if it's mass is 2.640 kg
Serga [27]

Answer:

Density=10.50kg/m³

Explanation:

Solution,\\Height(h)=0.5m\\Radius(r)=0.4m\\Now, \\Volume=\pi r^{2} h\\\\Volume=\pi *(0.4m)^{2} *0.5m\\\\Volume=0.251327m^{3} \\\\Again,\\\\Density=\frac{mass}{volume} \\\\Density=\frac{2.640kg}{0.251327} \\\\Density=10.50kg/m^{3}

A rock is thrown horizontally from a high building at 33.8 m/s. What is the magnitude of its velocity 4.25 s later?
Alex17521 [72]
<h2>Answer:53.63ms^{-2}</h2>

Explanation:

The equations of motion used in this question is v=u+at

When a object is projected horizontally from a sufficiently height,the x-component of acceleration remains zero because there is no force that drags the object in x direction.

But,due to gravity,the object accelerates downward at a rate of 9.8ms^{-2}.

In X-Direction,

Given that initial velocity=u_{x}=33.8ms^{-1}

Using v=u+at,

v_{x}=33.8+(0)4.25=33.8ms^{-1}

In Y-Direction,

Given that initial velocity=u_{x}=0ms^{-1}

Using v=u+at,

v_{y}=0+(9.8)4.25=41.65ms^{-1}

v=\sqrt{v_{x}^{2}+v_{y}^{2}}

v=\sqrt{1142.44+1734.72}=\sqrt{2877.163}=53.63ms^{-1}

<h3>What is scientific method?</h3>

The scientific method is the process of objectively establishing facts through testing and experimentation.

The basic scientific process or scientific method involves the following;

  • making an observation
  • forming a hypothesis
  • making a prediction
  • conducting an experiment
  • analyzing the results and
  • drawing conclusion.

Thus, if Kim’s experiment showed that chicken eggshells were stronger when she gave the hen feed, to which extra calcium had been added. The step of this scientific method is "draw conclusion".
