An airplane in level flight is acted on by four basic forces. Drag is air resistance, lift is the upward force provided by the wings, thrust is the force provided by the airplane's engines, and weight is the downward force of gravity acting on the airplane.

In level flight at constant speed, which pair of forces must be equal?

Ateam of astronauts is on a mission to land on and explore a large asteroid. in addition to collecting samples and performing experiments, one of their tasks is to demonstrate the concept of the escape speed by throwing rocks straight up at various initial speeds. with what minimum initial speed vesc will the rocks need to be thrown in order for them never to "fall" back to the asteroid? assume that the asteroid is approximately spherical, with an average density p 3.84 x108 g/m3 and volume v 2.17 x 1012 m3 recall that the universal gravitational constant is g 6.67 x 10-11 n m2/kg2

Abeam of electrons with of wavelength of 7.5 x 10-6 m is incident on a pair of narrow rectangular slits separated by 0.75 mm. the resulting interference pattern is projected onto a screen 10.0 m from the slits. what is the separation of the interference maxima in the resulting interference pattern?

What should the power status of a circuit be when measuring resistance with an ohmmeter?
