Chapter 5: Q 4. (page 127)

A jet plane is speeding down the runway during takeoff. Air

resistance is not negligible. Identify the forces on the jet.

Short Answer

Expert verified

four forces are apply thrust, normal, weight and drag

Step by step solution

01

Step 1.Given information

here given that if the object is speeding down on runway during takeoff and the Air resistance is not negligible, then in this situation how many forces are present.so Identify the forces on it..

02

Step 2

draw the free body diagram of the jet plane

03

Step 3

any object who touches the surface is subject to normal force and directed to earth gravitational force.

object accelerating due the engine, so the force will be in the direction of the object which is thrust force and the drag force who oppose the movement of object in air resistance is act against direction of plane.

there are four forces are present:

normal force

gravitational force

thrust force

drag force

a. The weight of a laptop computer.

b. The propulsion force of a bicycle.

The leaf hopper, champion jumper of the insect world, can

jump straight up at 4 m/s2. The jump itself lasts a mere 1 ms before the insect is clear of the ground.

a. Draw a free-body diagram of this mighty leaper while the

jump is taking place.

b. While the jump is taking place, is the force of the ground on

the leaf hopper greater than, less than, or equal to the force of

gravity on the leaf hopper? Explain.

the potential energy of two electric charges is inversely proportional to the distance between them. Two charges 30 nm apart have 1.0 J of potential energy. What is their potential energy if they are 20 nm apart?

Problems 35 through 40 show a free-body diagram. For each:

a. Identify the direction of the acceleration vector and show it as a vector next to your diagram. Or, if appropriate, write b. If possible, identify the direction of the velocity vector and show it as a labeled vector.

c. Write a short description of a real object for which this is the

correct free-body diagram. Use Examples 5.4, 5.5, and 5.6 as

models of what a description should be like.

rubber bands?

b. What will be the acceleration of two of these objects glued

together if they are pulled by two rubber bands?
