If the airplane flies horizontally at 70 m/s. Its propeller delivers 1500 N of thrust (forward force) to overcome aerodynamic drag (backward force)weighs 1700 lbf, estimate the lift force produced by the airplane’s wings (in lbf and newtons) when flying at 70.0 m/s.
A body weighs 1000 lbf when exposed to a standard earth gravity g = 32.174 ft/s 2 . ( a ) What is its mass in kg? ( b ) What will the weight of this body be in N if it is exposed to the moon’s standard acceleration g moon =1.62 m/s 2 ? (c) How fast will the body accelerate if a net force of 400 lbf is applied to it on the moon or on the earth?
A ship of 7500 tonnes displacement has KM 8.6 m, KG 7.8 m and 20 m
beam. A quantity of deck cargo is lost from the starboard side (KG 12 m,
and centre of gravity 6 m in from the rail). If the resulting list is 3 degrees
20 minutes to port, find how much deck cargo was lost.
