A jumbo jet weighing 65,000 kg Is accelerating at 3 m/s^2 while its jet engines are putting out 200000 N of thrust. How much air drag acts on the craft?

Please, show your work.

Fa = 5000 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law, which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

Let's assume that the movement of the plane is to the right, any movement or force to the right will be marked with a positive sign, while any force or movement to the left, will be taken as negative.

The force of the turbine drives the plane to the right, therefore it is positive, the acceleration is constant and keeps the movement to the right, therefore it is positive, the wind drag force tries to prevent the movement of the plane to the left therefore it is negative, with this analysis we deduce the following equation.

ΣF = m*a

where:

ΣF = sum of forces [N] (units of Newtons)

m = mass = 65000 [kg]

a = acceleration = 3 [m/s²]

Fa = force exerted by the air [N]

200000 - Fa = 65000*3

Fa = 200000 - (3*65000)

Fa = 5000 [N]

c because the action was the roller coaster reaches bottom of hill (action) reaction would be blood tends to drain away from head

hope this !

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.
