The f-35 is the latest generation of military fighter jet currently by many countries. It has a single turbofan engine that is capable of producing 190 kN of thrust. The aircraft weighs approximately 1.33 x 10^4 kg. - What is the maximum acceleration the jet can sustain in a vertical climb?
- On a cool morning where the temperature is at 6.0 degrees celcius, what is the speed of the sound?
- On that same cool morning, what is the distance travelled by the jet if it accelerates to a Mach number of M = 0.7 in a horizontal flight starting from M = 0.25. Assume that air resistance can be ignored.

A12-kg bag of groceries is tossed onto a table at 4.0 m/s and slides to a stop in 2.2 s . modify the equation fδt=δ (mv) to find the force of friction.

Imagine you are riding on a yacht in the ocean and traveling at 20 mph. you then hit a golf ball at 100 mph from the deck of the yacht. you see the ball move away from you at 100mph, while a person standing on a near by beach would observe your golf ball traveling at 120 mph (20 mph + 100 mph). now imagine you are aboard the hermes spacecraft traveling at 0.1c (1/10 the speed of light) past mars and shine a laser from the front of the ship. you would see the light traveling at c (the speed of light) away from your ship. according to einstein’s special relativity, how fast will a person on mars observe the light to be traveling? a) 0.1c (1/10 the speed of light) b) c (the speed of light) c)1.1c (c+0.1c)

The ratio of lift to drag l/d for a wing or airfoil is an important aerodynamic parameter, indeed, it is a direct measure of the aerodynamic efficiency of the wing. if a wing is pitched through a range of angle of attack, l/d first increases, then goes through a maximum, and then decreases. consider an infinite wing with an naca 2412 airfoil. estimate the maximum value of l/d. assume that the reynolds number is 9x10^6.
