Correct me if I am wrong,
but can I say that the vertical component of P is PCos(35), and it doesn't fall out of the sky because Weight is equal to PCos(35)
Therefore, PCos(35) = 3.92 * 105
So, If we rearrange that equation, P = 3.92*105 / Cos(35) == 321107.6 [1dp]
??
yes I think that the weight is correct. I couldn't read the sheet correctly.
the info that I think we need : time or radius
I am not sure whether we need to plug it into an equation or just use trig??
Homework Statement
An aircraft flies with its wings tilted, in order to fly in a horizontal circle of radius r. The aircraft has mass 4.00 x 104 Kg and has a constant speed of 250ms-1 . with the aircraft flying in this way, two forces are acting on the plane, P [lift] and W [weight which is...
