If all the mass of fuel and oxygen is burned to form gases of combustion, the downward velocity of these gases would be 12,505 m/s.

<h3>Conservation of linear momentum</h3>

The principle of conservation of linear momentum states that, the total momentum of an isolated system is constant.

The downward velocity of thes gases is calculated as follows;

v1(m1 + m2) = v2(m2)

305(1000 + 25) = v2(25)

312,625 = 25v2

v2 = 312,625/25

v2 = 12,505 m/s

Thus, If all the mass of fuel and oxygen is burned to form gases of combustion, the downward velocity of these gases would be 12,505 m/s.

A 3.00-kg model airplane has velocity components of 5.00 m/s due east and 8.00 m/s due north. What is the plane’s kinetic energy
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Kinetic energy, E = 133.38 Joules

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the model airplane, m = 3 kg

Velocity component, v₁ = 5 m/s (due east)

Velocity component, v₂ = 8 m/s (due north)

Let v is the resultant of velocity. It is given by :

v=\sqrt{v_1^2+v_2^2}

v=\sqrt{5^2+8^2}=9.43\ m/s

Let E is the kinetic energy of the plane. It is given by :

E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3\ kg\times (9.43\ m/s)^2

E = 133.38 Joules

So, the kinetic energy of the plane is 133.38 Joules. Hence, this is the required solution.
