Airplane Definition and 355 Threads

if someone falls out of a airplane that is horizontally traveling at 60m/s and goes into the ocean 3.0 seconds later with no air resistance what would the horizontal distance he travels while falling be. is the formula d=vt and the answer 180 m

I have been having trouble getting key components of this problem: A plan is flying in a horizontal circle at a speed of 480 km/h. The wings are tilted 40 degrees to the horizontal. What is the radius of the circle in which the plane is flying? Assume that the required force is provided...

I hope there are some physicists here, an argument has been going on for many years between myself and someone else, anybody who has any insight, please answer the following question and you will help to resolve this debate! A 747 jetliner weighing 163844 kg (the empty weight of a 747) lands...

simple question when it states "An airplane flies due north at 150km/h with respect to the air." with respect? what exactly does that mean? assuming that "relative to..." has the same meaning?? dajusta.

what provide the centripetal force? the lifting force on the airplane? or the weight of the airplane? or both? i read from the book, it says both, but since weight [mg] is always acting downward, how can it provide the centripetal force? my teacher seems can't help me a lot.
