What is the acceleration of the jet

Reference no: EM13657225

On aircraft carriers, catapults are utilized to accelerate jet aircraft to flight speeds in a short distance. One such catapult takes an 18,000 kg jet from 0-70 m/s in 2.5 s.

1. What is the acceleration of the jet?

2. How far does the jet travel as accelerating?

3. How large is the force that the catapult must exert on the jet?

Define is the inductance : As a way of determining the inductance of a coil used in a research project, a student first connects the coil to a 15.0 V battery and measures a current of 0.660 A. The student then connects the coil to a 24.0V (rms), 60.0 Hz generator and measures ..

Axis is perpendicular to the earths magnetic field : A 520 turn circular-loop coil 14.5 cm in diameter is originally aligned so that its axis is parallel to Earth's magnetic field. In 2.82 ms the coil is flipped thus that its axis is perpendicular to the Earth's magnetic field.

Long and narrow rectangular loop of wire : A long and narrow rectangular loop of wire of width 0.080 m is moving toward the bottom of the screen with a speed of 0.020 m/s. The loop is leaving a region in which a 3.0-Tmagnetic field exists; the magnetic field outside this region is zero.

What is the acceleration of the jet : On aircraft carriers, catapults are utilized to accelerate jet aircraft to flight speeds in a short distance. One such catapult takes an 18,000 kg jet from 0-70 m/s in 2.5 s. What is the acceleration of the jet? How far does the jet travel as acceler..

Suppose the tower is of uniform composition : The Leaning Tower of Pisa is 55m tall and about 7.0m in diameter. The top is 4.5m off center. Is the tower in stable equilibrium? If thus how much farther can it lean before it becomes unstable? Suppose the tower is of uniform composition.

What force does this pressure exert on a dart : Many cultures around the world still utilize a simple weapon called ablowgun, a tube with a dart that fits tightly inside. A sharp breath into the end of the tube launches the dart. When exhaling powerfully, a healthy person can supply air at a gauge..
