A small private plane is currently playing this to an island the plane is 0.9 km on the air. ifvthe potential energy of the plane and it's three passengers is 48510000 j what is the combined mass of the plane and it's passengers? Round your answer to the nearest tenth place

the mass = 5494.4[kg]

Explanation:

In order to find the joint mass of the plane and the passengers, we must use the following equation:

Where:

m = mass [kg]

g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]

h = elevation = 0.9 [km]

Now clearing the term m

force is based upon mass and acceleration.the statement is not always true.

it can be explained from newton's second law of motion.

as per newton's second law of motion the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place along the direction of force.

mathematically it can be written as -

                                              ⇒      

here   k is the proportionality constant whose value is 1.

                                                            [a is the acceleration=dv/dt]

hence we see that force not only depends on mass and acceleration but also on velocity and rate of change of mass. force f will depend on mass and acceleration only when mass is constant.

hence the statement that force is based upon mass and acceleration is false.
