Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass of the object and to the square of its velocity: K.E. = 1/2 m v2.
The part that causes the disc caliper piston to retract when the brakes are released is the square-cut O-ring.
The square cut seal is the most important part of a disc brake caliper, for keeping the brake behind the piston so that when you step on the brake pedal, it releases a pressure that applied to the piston which in return applies the pad to the rotor.
(a) No, because the mechanical energy is not conserved
Explanation:
The work-energy theorem states that the work done by the engine on the airplane is equal to the gain in kinetic energy of the plane:
(1)
However, this theorem is only valid if there are no non-conservative forces acting on the plane. However, in this case there is air resistance acting on the plane: this means that the work-energy theorem is no longer valid, because the mechanical energy is not conserved.
Therefore, eq. (1) can be rewritten as

which means that the work done by the engine (W) is used partially to increase the kinetic energy of the airplane (
) and part is lost because of the air resistance (
).
(b) 77.8 m/s
First of all, we need to calculate the net force acting on the plane, which is equal to the difference between the thrust force and the air resistance:

Now we can calculate the acceleration of the plane, by using Newton's second law:

where m is the mass of the plane.
Finally, we can calculate the final speed of the plane by using the equation:

where
is the final velocity
is the initial velocity
is the acceleration
is the distance travelled
Solving for v, we find

Answer:
-48 N
Explanation:
mass of door (m) = 4 kg
acceleration of the door = 12 m/s^{2}
force exerted by the person = 48 N
From Newton's third law of motion, action and reaction are equal but opposite. Therefore the force exerted on the door by the person which is 48 N will be the same as the force exerted on the person by the door but opposite in its direction, and this would be - 48 N
