The net force acting on a Cessna 172 airplane has a magnitude of 1900 N and points in the positive x direction. If the plane has

Answer: 10.05m/s²

Explanation:

Force acting on the plane has a magnitude of 1900N.

Mass of plane = 860kg

We then calculate the acceleration which will be:

= 1900 / 860

= 2.21 m/s²

Since acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8m/s², then the net acceleration will be:

= ✓(2.21² + 9.8²)

= ✓(4.88 + 96.04)

=✓100.92

= 10.05m/s²

A person travels distance πR along the circumference
lakkis [162]

Answer: 2R

Explanation:

Here the person travels пR distance. We know that the circumference of a circle is 2πR. So your imaginated person has traveled the distance which​ is half of the circumference of the circle. And this distance is equal to its diameter. We know that diameter of a circle is two times larger than the radius. So the person's displacement is two times of the radius, means 2R. [Here 'R' means the radius of the circle]

Consider a capacitor made of two rectangular metal plates of length and width , with a very small gap between the plates. There
mezya [45]

Answer:

F= σ² L² /2ε₀

F = (L² ε₀/4π)   ΔV² / r⁴

Explanation:

a)  For this exercise we can use Coulomb's law

          F = - k Q² / r²

where the negative sign indicates that the force is attractive and the value of the charge is equal to the two plates

Capacitance is defined by

         C = Q / ΔV

        Q = C ΔV

also the capacitance for a parallel plate capacitor is related to its shape

         C = ε₀ A / r

we substitute

         Q = ε₀ A ΔV / r

we substitute in the force equation

            F = k (ε₀ A ΔV / r)² / r²

           k = 1 / 4πε₀

           F = ε₀ /4π  L² ΔV² / r⁴4

           F = L² ΔV² ε₀/ (4π r⁴)

           F = (L² ε₀/4π)   ΔV² / r⁴

b) Another way to solve the exercise is to use the relationship between the force and the electric field

          F = q E

where we can calculate the field created by a plane using Gaussian law, where we use a cylinder with a base parallel to the plate as the Gaussian surface

           Ф = ∫E .dA = q_{int} / ε₀

the plate have two side

           2E A = q_{int} / ε₀

              E = σ / 2ε₀

               σ = q_{int} / A

               

substituting in force

          F = q σ / 2ε₀

the charge total on the other plate is

       q = σ A

       q = σ  L²

      F= σ² L² /2ε₀

The sound level at 1.0 m from a certain talking person talking is 60 dB. You are surrounded by five such people, all 1.0 m from
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

66.98 db

Explanation:

We know that

L_T=L_S+10log(n)

L_T= Total signal level in db

n= number of sources

L_S= signal level from signal source.

L_T=60+10 log(5)

= 66.98 db

A skateboarder with mass ms = 54 kg is standing at the top of a ramp which is hy = 3.3 m above the ground. The skateboarder then
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

A) W_{ff} =-744.12J

B) F_f=-W_{ff}*sin\theta /hy = 112.75N

C) F_{f2}=207.58N

Explanation:

This question is incomplete. The full question was:

<em>A skateboarder with mass ms = 54 kg is standing at the top of a ramp which is hy = 3.3 m above the ground. The skateboarder then jumps on his skateboard and descends down the ramp. His speed at the bottom of the ramp is vf = 6.2 m/s.  </em>

<em>Part (a) Write an expression for the work, Wf, done by the friction force between the ramp and the skateboarder in terms of the variables given in the problem statement.  </em>

<em>Part (b) The ramp makes an angle θ with the ground, where θ = 30°. Write an expression for the magnitude of the friction force, fr, between the ramp and the skateboarder.  </em>

<em>Part (c) When the skateboarder reaches the bottom of the ramp, he continues moving with the speed vf onto a flat surface covered with grass. The friction between the grass and the skateboarder brings him to a complete stop after 5.00 m. Calculate the magnitude of the friction force, Fgrass in newtons, between the skateboarder and the grass.</em>

For part A), we make a balance of energy to calculate the work done by the friction force:

W_{ff}=\Delta E

W_{ff}=1/2*m*vf^2-m*g*hy

W_{ff}=-744.12J

For part B), we use our previous value for the work:

W_{ff}=-F_f*(hy/sin\theta)   Solving for friction force:

F_f=-W_{ff}*sin\theta /hy

F_f=112.75N

For part C), we first calculate the acceleration by kinematics and then calculate the module of friction force by dynamics:

Vf^2=Vo^2+2*a*d

Solving for a:

a=-3.844m/s^2

Now, by dynamics:

|F_f|=|m*a|

|F_f|=207.58N
