    Finding tension and the time taken

    Homework Statement A mass of 15 kg is supported at 2 meters from the ground by a light rope which passes over a light, smooth pulley and it carries at its over end a mass of 6kg which is held to the floor. Find the tension in the rope when the restraint is removed and the time taken for the...

    How long will it take to reach 3km?

    I have changed my lay out hope this is better for you to follow:- Conversions. 8000 × 9.8 = 78400N 160Km/h = 44.44m/s Equations Needed. F = m × a S = u × t + 0.5 × a × t2 The solution. Net Force = Jet thrust – (air resistance + weight of plane) Net force = 90000N –...

    How long will it take to reach 3km?

    Net force = 9000 - 89000 = 600N F=ma a=600/800 = 0.075m/s^2 V^2=U^2+as V^2= (44.44^2) + (2*0.075*300) V= 49.24m/s t=V-U/a = 49.24 - 44.44 / 0.075 = 63.99s Could you please tell me if this is right Thanks In advance

    Calclate its volume after compression?

    V2 = p1v1t2 / t1p2 v2= 140,000, 0.1, 333.15 / 298.15, 700000 = 0.022 is this correct

    Testing VHF Radio Wave Performance with Different Antennas

    VHF does not travell far as the wave is small and anythink in its way will effect it strength. what distance where you thinking? couple of miles i was thinking because the power will just bend the needle rite over. Is it possible to have a copy of the schematics of the homemede strenght...

    Testing VHF Radio Wave Performance with Different Antennas

    The best antenna you could use would be a dipole they are very efficient and you will get the standing wave ratio down to about 1.2.1. bought antennas are a gimmick they place capacitors into burn off unwanted power to get there swr down so there is aloss of power. I would try the setup...

    Testing VHF Radio Wave Performance with Different Antennas

    I would like to know how far the transsmission will be measured over i.g miles the power used watts As a ameture radio operator if you have some one on a vertical and some one on a horizontal there can be a diiference and vice versa and sum time they can be very distorted. What type of...
