Equation 1 :
m1 :   m1a =T 
Equation 2:m2 : m2a= F - T 

Adding 1 and 2a=0.073

Placing in  equation 1

we get T = 218.18N

A Plane has a takeoff speed of 150 m/s and requires 1500m to reach that speed. Determine the acceleration of the plane and the t
luda_lava [24]

1) Acceleration: 7.5 m/s^2

The motion of the plane is a uniformly accelerated motion, so we can find its acceleration by using the suvat equation

v^2-u^2=2as

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the displacement

Here we have

v = 150 m/s is the final velocity of the plane

u = 0 (it starts from rest)

a=?

s = 1500 m is the displacement

Solving for a, we find

a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}=\frac{150^2-0}{2(1500)}=7.5 m/s^2

2. Time: 20 s

For this part of the problem, we can use another suvat equation:

v=u+at

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is the time

Here we already know:

v = 150 m/s is the final velocity of the plane

u = 0 (it starts from rest)

a=7.5 m/s^2 (found in part 1)

Solving for t, we find the time taken for the plane to reach the final velocity of 150 m/s:

t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{150-0}{7.5}=20 s

Light from a laser strikes a diffraction grating that has 5500 lines per centimeter. The central and first-order maxima are sepa
WINSTONCH [101]

.Answer:

491.4 nm

Explanation:

The distance between central and first maxima is,

y=0.455m

And the distance between screen abnd grating is,

L=1.62 m

Now the angle can be find as,

tan\theta=\frac{y}{L} \\\theta=tan^{-1}(\frac{0.455}{1.62})  \\\theta=15.68^{\circ}

Now the grating distance is,

d=\frac{1}{5500} cm\\d=1.82\times 10^{-6}m

Now with m=1 condition will become,

\lambda=dsin\theta

So,

\lambda=1.82\times 10^{-6}m\times sin(15.68^{\circ})\\\lambda=1.82\times 10^{-6}m\times 0.270\\\lambda=491.4\times 10^{-9}m\\\lambda=491.4 nm

Therefore the wavelength of laser light is 491.4 nm.

A 42.0-kg parachutist is moving straight downward with a speed of 3.85 m/s. (a) If the parachutist comes to rest with constant a
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

-414.96 N

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{0^2-3.85^2}{2\times 0.75}\\\Rightarrow a=-9.88\ m/s^2

F=ma\\\Rightarrow F=42\times -9.88\\\Rightarrow F=-414.96\ N

The force the ground exerts on the parachutist is -414.96 N

If the distance is shorter than 0.75 m then the acceleration will increase causing the force to increase
