Answer:

The percentage of the weight supported by the front wheel is  A= 19.82 %

Explanation:

B] Let the mass of plane be m, force on backwheels be Nb and nosewheel be Nn

Torque equation about nose wheel,

mg*(2.58-0.8) - Nb *(3.02-0.8) = 0

Nb =  mg*(2.58-0.8)/(3.02-0.8) = 0.8018 mg

Nn = mg - Nb = (1-0.8018) mg = 0.1982mg

Weight percentage supported by front wheel = 19.82% answer

The children at the local park think the slide is too slow. There is too much fiction. What could you do to decrease the amount
igor_vitrenko [27]
In order to decrease the friction on the slide,
we could try some of these:

-- Install a drippy pipe across the top that keeps continuously
dripping olive oil on the top end of the slide.  The oil oozes
down the slide and keeps the whole slide greased.

-- Hire a man to spread a coat of butter on the whole slide,
every 30 minutes.

-- Spray the whole slide with soapy sudsy water, every 30 minutes.

-- Drill a million holes in the slide,and pump high-pressure air
through the holes.  Make the slide like an air hockey table.

-- Keep the slide very cold, and keep spraying it with a fine mist
of water.  The water freezes, and a thin coating of ice stays on
the slide.

-- Ask a local auto mechanic to please, every time he changes
the oil in somebody's car, to keep all the old oil, and once a week
to bring his old oil to the park, to spread on the slide.  If it keeps
the inside of a hot car engine slippery, it should do a great job
keeping a simple park slide slippery.

-- Keep a thousand pairs of teflon pants near the bottom of the ladder
at the beginning of the slide.  Anybody who wants to slide faster can
borrow a set of teflon pants, put them on before he uses the slide, and
return them when he's ready to go home from the park.

ella [17]
<span>The momentum of the basketball is three times that of the softball. Momentum equals mass times velocity. Therefore, if the basketball and softball are moving at the same velocity, and the basketball has three times the mass of the softball, the basketball has three times the momentum of the softball.</span>
