Answer:

How does a Van de Graaff generator works?

A Van de Graaff generator pulls electrons from the Earth, moves them along a belt and stores them on the large sphere. These electrons repel each other and try to get as far away from each other as possible, spreading out on the surface of the sphere. ... It provides a convenient path for electrons to move to the ground.

An Airbus A320 jetliner has a takeoff mass of 75,000 kg. It reaches its takeoff speed of 82 m/s (180 mph) in 35 s. What is the t
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

175.5 kN

Explanation:

We find the acceleration of the Airbus A320 jetliner from,

a = (v - u)/t where u = initial velocity of jetliner = 0 m/s (since it starts from rest), v = final velocity of jetliner = 82 m/s and t = time for velocity change = 35 s

So a = (v - u)/t = (82 m/s - 0 m/s)/35 s = 82 m/s ÷ 35 s = 2.34 m/s²

Now, the thrust of the engines on the jetliner T = ma where m = mass of jetliner = 75,000 kg and a = acceleration of jetliner = 2.34 m/s²

T = ma

= 75,000 kg × 2.34 m/s²

= 175500 N

= 175.5 kN

A woman can row a boat at 4.0 mph is still water.
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

1) \theta=120^{\circ} from the positive x-axis.

2) t=20\ min

Explanation:

Given:

speed of rowing in still water, v=4\ mph

1)

speed of water stream, v_s=2\ mph

we know that the direction of resultant of the two vectors is given by:

tan\ \beta=\frac{v.sin\ \theta}{v_s+v.cos\ \theta}

where:

\beta=the angle of resultant vector from the positive x-axis.

\theta = angle between the given vectors

When the rower wants to reach at the opposite end then:

\beta =90^{\circ}

so,

tan\ 90^{\circ}=\frac{v.sin\ \theta}{v_s+v.cos\ \theta}

\Rightarrow v_s+v.cos\ \theta=0

2+4\times cos\ \theta=0

cos\ \theta=-\frac{1}{2}

\theta=120^{\circ} from the positive x-axis.

2)

Now the resultant velocity of rowing in the stream:

v_r=\sqrt{v^2+v_s^2+2\times v.v_s.cos\ \theta}

v_r=\sqrt{4^2+2^2+2\times 4\times 2\times cos\ 120}

v_r=12\ mph

Therefore time taken to cross a 4 miles wide river:

t=\frac{4}{12}

t=\frac{1}{3}\ hr

t=20\ min
