An aircraft carrier uses a device called a catapult to accelerate jets to the speed needed for take off. the flight decks on these carriers have length d = 84 m. a jet with a mass of m = 13317 kg can be accelerated from rest to a speed of v = 53 m/s by the end of the flight deck.

a. select the correct symbolic expression for the magnitude of the average net force, fl, acting on the jet during its launch.
i. fl=mv/d
ii. fl=mv^2/2d
iii. fl=mv/2d
iv. fl=mv^2/d
v. fl=mvd
vi. fl=v^2/2d

b. calculate the numerical value of the magnitude of the force f in newtons?
c. what is the numerical value of the ratio r of the launch force fl to the jet's weight?

Aplane takes off from an airport and flies to town a, located d1 = 215 km from the airport in the direction 20.0° north of east. the plane then flies to town b, located d2 = 230 km at 30.0° west of north from town a. use graphical methods to determine the distance and direction from town b to the airport. (enter the distance in km and the direction in degrees south of west.)

Consider a one meter long horizontal pipe with a constant 100 cm^2 cross sectional area. water flows rightward into the pipe at x = 0 with flow velocity 02m/sec at every point within the pipe intake area. at x=1, the rightward flow rate is 0.192 m/sec. assume the water is a conserved quantity in the pipe, so there must be a leak (a sink) somewhere in the pipe. 1. compute net volumetric flow of the source if the system to be in equilibrium. 2. now assume the pipe in the problem has no leaks. compute the net volumetric rate of change for the system.
