Answer:

Acceleration, $a=4\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the helicopter, m = 4500 kg

Net force acting on the helicopter, F = 18000 N

Let a is the acceleration of the helicopter. The force acting on an object is equal to the product of mass and acceleration. It is calculated as :

$F=ma$

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}$

$a=\dfrac{18000\ N}{4500\ kg}$

$a=4\ m/s^2$

So, the acceleration of the helicopter is $4\ m/s^2$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

Emitted power will be equal to $7.85\times 10^{-5}watt$

Explanation:

It is given factory whistle can be heard up to a distance of R=2.5 km = 2500 m

Threshold of human hearing $I=10^{-12}W/m^2$

We have to find the emitted power

Emitted power is equal to $P=I\times A$

$P=I\times 4\pi R^2$

$P=10^{-12}\times 4\times 3.14\times 2500^2=7.85\times 10^{-5}watt$

So emitted power will be equal to $7.85\times 10^{-5}watt$

SOVA2 [1]

Archaeological evidence shows that Egyptians worked together to build the pyramids. Remains of quarries and ancient tools suggest that large slabs were created from rock beds. The slabs were placed on sleds and pulled to the building site. To make this process easier, men most likely poured oil on the roadway. This process is depicted in tomb paintings that date back to 1900 BCE.

Bumek [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

According to the statement, three confused sleigh dogs are trying to pull a sled across the Alaskan snow.

Forces in same direction gets added , so 35N + 42N=77N and the Net Force is 77N -53N as it is acting in opposite direction.

Net force is 25N in east to the maximum without any hassle.

The heating coils in you toaster during the first five seconds after you turn the toaster on is Δ K = W + Q.

Your automobile just before you fill it with gas until you pull away from the gas station at speed v is ΔK + ΔU + ΔEint = W + Q + TMW + TMT

your body while you sit quietly and eat a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for lunch is ΔEint = Q + TET + TER
 

your home during five minutes of a sunny afternoon while the temperature in the home remains fixed is ΔU = W + Q + TMW + TMT
