A model airplane of mass 0.4 kg is attached to a horizontal string and flies in a horizontal circle of radius 5.9 m, making 2 revolutions every 7 s. (The weight of the plane is balanced by the upward “lift” force of the air on the wings of the plane.) The accelaration due to the gravity is 9.81 m/s2 . Find the speed of the plane. Answer in units of m/s.

Find the tension in the string. Answer in units of N.

The model airplane has a mass of 0.90 kg and moves at constant speed of 19 m/s on a circle that is parallel to the ground. The path of the airplane and the guideline lie in the same horizontal plane because the weight of the plane is balanced by the lift generated by its wings. What is the work done by the tension in the 17 m guideline when the model airplane completes one circle?

A model airplane of mass 0.760 kg flies with a speed of 35.0 m/s in a horizontal circle at the end of a 54.0-m control wire as shown in Figure (a). The forces exerted on the airplane are shown in Figure (b): the tension in the control wire, the gravitational force, and aerodynamic lift that acts at θ = 20.0° inward from the vertical. Compute the tension in the wire, assuming it makes a constant angle of θ = 20.0°...

An airplane releases a ball as it flies parallel to the ground at a height of 135 m as shown in the figure. If the ball lands on the ground exactly 135 m from the release point, calculate the speed v of the plane. Neglect any effects due to air resistance, and use g = 9.81 m/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity.

1. An object of mass 1.2 kg is attached to a string of 0.83 m. When this object is rotated around a horizontal circle, it completes 15 revolutions in 9.6 seconds. a. What is the period (T) of this motion? b. What is the tangential velocity of the object? c. What is the tension on the string? Hint: The tension on the string is the centripetal force that causes the circular motion.

One end of a cord is fixed and a small 0.550-kg object is attached to the other end, where it swings in a section of a vertical circle of radius 2.50 m, as shown in the figure below. When θ = 18.0°, the speed of the object is 6.50 m/s. An object is swinging to the right and upward from the end of a cord attached to a horizontal surface. The cord makes an angle θ with the vertical. An...

The model airplane in figure below is flying at a speed of 23 m/s on a horizontal circle of radius 15 m. The mass of the plane is 0.99 kg. The person holding the guideline pulls it in until the radius becomes 13 m. The plane speeds up, and the tension in the guideline becomes four times greater. What is the net work done on the plane?

An airplane has a mass of 2.3×106 kg , and the air flows past the lower surface of the wings at 94 m/s . Part A If the wings have a surface area of 1500 m2 , how fast must the air flow over the upper surface of the wing if the plane is to stay in the air? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Kim whirls a 10 kg bag, which is connected to a string in a horizontal circle above her head at some unknown constant speed v. Suddenly, the string breaks and the bag flies off and lands 10 m away with a time of flight of 0.5 s. If the string was 1.5 m long, a) What was the speed of the rock before the string snapped? (vertical motion irrelevant) b) Find the tension in the string before it snaps.

A ball with a mass of 1.50 kg is attached to the end of a string that is 0.400 m in length. You swing the ball so that it swings in a vertical circle, traveling at a speed of 4.80 m/s at the top of the circle. (a) Draw the free-body diagram of the ball. Make sure you label all your vectors and clearly indicate their direction. (b) What is the tension in the string when the ball is at...
