A plane flying horizontally at 384 m/s releases a package at an altitude of 15,721 m.

Answer:

t = 56.6 s

Explanation:

In the absence of air resistance we can use the kinematic equation

s = ½at²

The package is at vertical rest at the drop point. The horizontal velocity will not matter.

t = √(2s/a)

t = √(2(15721)/9.81)

t = 56.6 s

With air resistance, the time will likely be significantly longer as terminal velocity probably has  been achieved.

Without air resistance, the velocity at ground impact would be

v = at = 9.81(56.6) = 555 m/s

which is almost double the speed of sound in air, so air resistance is not negligible.

FinnZ [79.3K]
Impulse = (force) x (time)

The first impulse was (20 N) x (10 sec) = 200 meters/sec

The second one is (50 N) x (time) and we want it equal to the first one, so

(50 N) x (time) = 200 meters/sec

Divide each side by 50N :    Time = 200/50 = <em>4 seconds</em>

By the way, the quantity we're playing with here is the cart's <em>momentum</em>.

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

the answer is 2000Nm

Explanation:

wprk done = force × distance moved

w.d = 200N × 10m

A pie is cooked in an oven at 200 °C. The aluminium film that ckvered the pie can be touched soon after it is removed while the
GREYUIT [131]

Answer and Explanation:

The aluminum is more productive in the absorption and heat transfer to other particles. It instantly converts heat absorbed from the environment into the atmosphere when removed from the oven, enabling us to operate with it faster than the pie that takes much longer to convert heat to the environment.

So this is the reason for pie to be the dangerously hot

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

μ = 0.309

Explanation:

coefficient of kinetic friction is defined as the ratio of two forces, friction force and the normal force acting on the object.

θ = arctan(15/100)= 8.531⁰

In the vertical direction:

N = mgcosθ = 100 *9.8 *cos(8.531) = 970N

law of conservation of energy implies

mgsinθ - μNx = 1/2m(v₂²-v₁²)

100*9.8*sin (8.531) - μ(970*2) = 1/2(100)(0²-3²)

150.6 - 1940μ = 450

- 1940μ = -600.6

μ = 0.309
