A 1.7 kg model airplane is flying north at 12.5 m/s initially, and 25 seconds later is observed heading 30 degrees west of north at 25 m/s. What is the magnitude of the average net force on the airplane during this time interval?

Average net force = 0.62 N

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass; m = 1.7 kg

Initial velocity; u = 12.5 m/s

Final velocity; v = 25 m/s

time; t = 25 seconds

Now, we are told that the final velocity was 30° west of North. So, resolving this velocity along the horizontal gives;

v = 25 cos 30°

Now, using Newton's first equation of motion gives;

v = u + at

Where a is acceleration

Plugging in the relevant values gives;

25 cos 30° = 12.5 + 25a

21.6506 - 12.5 = 25a

a = (21.6506 - 12.5)/25

a = 0.3660 m/s²

Now, magnitude of the average net force would be; F = ma

F = 1.7 × 0.366

F ≈ 0.62 N

because if the tool that you are using is not balanced it there would be false mass.

the aurora is formed when charged particles emitted from the sun during a solar flare penetrate the earth's magnetic shield and collide with atoms and molecules in our atmosphere. these collisions result in countless little bursts of light, called photons, which make up the aurora.

auroras are generated by charged solar particles hitting molecules in earth's atmosphere. this usually happens in high latitudes, because our planet’s magnetic field tends to funnel these particles toward the poles. that’s why it can be experienced in northern ohio.
