A fighter jet is launched from an aircraft carrier with the aid of its own engines and a steam-powered catapult. The thrust of its engines is 2.00 x 105 N. In being launched from rest it moves through a distance of 95.8 m and has a kinetic energy of 4.37 x 107 J at lift-off. What is the work done on the jet by the catapult?

A fighter jet is launched from an aircraft carrier with the aid of its own engines and a steam-powered catapult. The thrust of its engines is 2.72 x 105 N. In being launched from rest it moves through a distance of 58.6 m and has a kinetic energy of 5.29 x 107 J at lift-off. What is the work done on the jet by the catapult?
Concept: Work-Energy Theorem Qu. 1 A fighter jet is launched from an aircraft carrier with the aid of its own engines and a steam powered catapult. The net thrust of its engines is 2 x 10' N. In being launched from rest it moves through a distance of 90 m and has a kinetic energy of 4 x 10'J at lift-off. a) Draw a diagram identifying the forces and a coordinate system (5 points) b) What is the work done...
18) A jet fighter plane is launched from a catapult on an aircraft carrier. It reaches a speed of 42 m/s at the end of the catapult, and this requires 3.0s. Assuming the acceleration is constant, what is the length of the catapult? Answer: O A) 24 m O B) 36 m O C) 63 m 0 D) 84 m
A fighter jet taking off from an aircraft carrier accelerates from rest to Mach 2 seconds. What force is pressing an 80-kg pilot against the seat?
Problem 3. Airplanes are launched from aircraft carriers by means of a steam catapult as shown in the figure below. The catapult is a well-insulated cylinder that contains steam and is fitted with a nearly frictionless piston. The piston is connected to the airplane by a cable. As the steam expands, the movement of the piston causes movement of the plane. A catapult design calls for 600 lbm of steam at 2000 psia and 800 °F to be expanded to...
134. Catapult Launcher A catapult launcher on an aircraft carrier accelerates a jet from rest to 72 m/s. The work done by the catapult during the launch is 7.6 X 10). (a) What is the mass of the jet? (b) If the jet is in contad with the catapult for 2.0 s, what is the power output of the catapult?
A steam catapult launches a jet aircraft from the aircraft carrier John C. Stennis, giving it a speed of 185 mi/h in 2.90 s. A) Find the average acceleration of the plane. B) Assuming the acceleration is constant, find the distance the plane moves.
Can someone help me with this problem. Incorrect. Assuming in both cases the jet starts from rest and has the same takeoff velocity, it takes less time to get to takeoff speed when launching from the carrier. Comparing the time, and knowing that the launch velocities are equal, you can compare the accelerations To answer this question, first click here to view the associated video. To attain its takeoff speed, the typical land-based takeoff distance for a certain fighter jet...
only need part C thank you HW 17.2.17.3 Problem 17.26 The jet aircraft has a total mass of 29 Mg and a center of massa. Initially at take-off the engines provide a thrust 2T 6 kN and T. 1.9 kN. Neglect the mass of the wheels and due to low velocity, neglect any lift caused by the wings. (Figure 1) ✓ Correct Part Figure < 1 of 1 Determine the normal reactions on each of the towing wheels loc Express...
1. A rocket is launched vertically from the Earth, and the thrust (pushing force) from the engines is directed upward, and has a magnitude of 5.00 x 106 N. The mass of the rocket is initially 2.00 x 105 kg. (a) What is the initial acceleration of the rocket, assuming you can neglect air resistance? (b) After the rocket has been in flight for a while, burning and exhausting a lot of fuel, its mass has decreased to 1.20 x 105 kg, and...
