Chapter 2: Q74P (page 37)

A pilot flies horizontally at 1300km/h, at height h=35mabove initially level ground. However, at time t=0, the pilot begins to fly over ground sloping upward at angle胃=4.3掳(Fig. 2-41). If the pilot does not change the airplane鈥檚 heading, at what time does the plane strike the ground?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The time t at which the plane strikes the ground is 1.29 s

Step by step solution

01

Given data

The speed of the plane is v=1300km/hat height h=35mabove the ground.

The angle sloping upward is胃=4.3掳.

02

Relation between speed, distance, and time at constant acceleration

When acceleration is constant one can say that speed is the ratio of distance and time.

03

Calculation of distance using trigonometry

If the plane moves with velocity v=1300km/hcontinuously and the terrain continues its upward slope of 4.3掳, then the plane will strike the ground after traveling a distance of

x=htan4.3=35mtan4.3=465.5m

So, the time of flight is,

t=xv=0.465km1300km/h=0.00036hr=1.29s鈮�1.3s

Therefore, at 1.3 s the plane will hit the ground.

Question: An iceboat has a constant velocity toward the east when a sudden gust of wind causes the iceboat to have a constant acceleration toward the east for a period of3.0s. A plot of x versus t is shown in Fig. 2-47, where t=0is taken to be the instant the wind starts to blow and the positiveis toward the east. (a) What is the acceleration of the iceboat during the3.0sinterval? (b) What is the velocity of the iceboat at the end of the3.0sinterval? (c) If the acceleration remains constant for an additional3.0s, how far does the iceboat travel during this second3.0sinterval?

(a) If the maximum acceleration that is tolerable for passengers in a subway train is1.34m2 and subway stations are located 806mapart, what is maximum speed a subway train can attain between stations? (b)What is the travel time between stations? (c) If a subway train stops for localid="1660818170335" 20s at each station, what is the maximum average speed of the train, from one start up to the next? (d) Graph x, v and a versus t for the interval from one start-up to the next?

The speed of a bullet is measured to be 640m/s as the bullet emerges from a barrel of length 1.20m. Assuming constant acceleration, find the time that the bullet spends in the barrel after it is fired.

Two particles move along an x axis. The position of particle 1 is given by x=6t2+3t+2(in meters and seconds); the acceleration of particle 2 is given bya=-8t(in meters per second squared and seconds), and, at t=0, its velocity is20m/s. When the velocities of the particles match, what is their velocity?
