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

sasho [114]

Answer:

The magnitude of the average force exerted by the club on the ball during contact = mv/t

Explanation:

Impulse exerted on the ball = Momentum of the ball = mass * velocity = m*v

As we know,  

m*v = Integration of F.dt with limits 0 to T

Ft = mv

F = mv/t

The magnitude of the average force exerted by the club on the ball during contact = mv/t

The pail is rotated at a constant rate so it has the minimum speed at all points along its circular path. The water has mass m.
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

The pail is rotated at a constant rate in vertical circular path  so it has the minimum speed at all points along its circular path . That means at top position the velocity is almost zero. In that case the centripetal force at top position will be provided by its weight or

mg = mv² / r ( r is radius of  vertical circular path )

v = √ rg

At the bottom position its velocity will be increased due to loss of potential energy

so 1/2 m V² = 1/2 m v² + mg x 2r  

V =√ 5 gr

If R be the reaction force at the bottom by bottom of pail

R - mg = mV² / r

R = mg +mV² / r

= mg + m x 5gr / r

R = 6mg

This is the magnitude of the force exerted by the water on the bottom of the pail .

levacccp [35]

Answer:

Obviously Lengthen...   T = 2\pi \sqrt{L/g}   or   g = 4\pi ^{2} L/g

Explanation:

As we can observe from the equation, time period of a simple pendulum depends upon the length directly. When the gravitational acceleration increases the time period of the pendulum decreases and vice versa. So, by increasing the length, the time period can be adjusted...

The equation for the change in the position of a train (measured in units of length) is given by the following expression: x = ½
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

(B) (length)/(time³)

Explanation

The equation x = ½ at² + bt³ has to be dimensionally correct. In other words the term bt³ and ½ at² must have units of change of position = length.

We solve in order to find the dimension of b:

[x]=[b]*[t]³

length=[b]*time³

[b]=length/time³
