3 An F/A-18 Super Hornet cruises at 770 mph while monitoring a UFO with the appearance of a flying saucer. While the Hornet flies east over the ground, the saucer moves north at 580 mph with respect to the ground. A) Find the speed of the saucer with respect to the Hornet. In order words, calculate the flying saucer's speed in the reference frame of the Hornet. B) Find the direction of the saucer's velocity in the reference frame of the Hornet. In other words, calculate the direction the saucer appears to be moving as seen by

Zorch, an archenemy of Superman, decides to slow Earth’s rotation to once per 29 h by exerting a force parallel to the equator, opposing the rotation. Superman is not immediately concerned, because he knows Zorch can only exert a force of 4.15 × 107 N. For the purposes calculations in this problem you should treat the Earth as a sphere of uniform density even though it isn't. a. How long, in seconds, must Zorch push with this force to accomplish his goal? (This period gives Superman time to devote to other villains.)
Graph below represents the force on a 12 kg air mass as it passes through a jet engine. Immediately after entering the engine, the force is 9,039 N, and the force tapers linearly to zero once the air reaches the back of the engine 2.3 m later. If the air enters the engine with velocity 252 m/s, what is its exit velocity? (Please answer to the fourth decimal place - i.e 14.3225)
A paper airplane is thrown horizontally with a velocity of 18 m/s. The plane is in the air for 7.43 s before coming to stand still on the ground. (Suppose, the planes fly horizontally without losing any altitude.) Calculate the acceleration of the plane?
The elevator in an office building, starting from rest at the first floor, is accelerated 0.75 m/sec2 for 5 secs. It continues at constant velocity for 12 secs, more and is then stopped in 3 secs with constant deceleration. If the floors are 3.75 m apart, at what floor did the elevator stop?
3. An engineer is designing the runway for an airport. Of the planes that will use theairport, the lowest acceleration rate is likely to be 3 m/s2. The takeoff speed forthis plane will be 65 m/s. Assuming this minimum acceleration, what is the minimum allowed length for the runway?
JUST DRAW THE SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM. NO NEED TO SOLVE. THANK YOU In Rizal province, one of its power plants has been thoroughly monitored for possible conversion into a wind power plant. A propeller wind turbine is to be used. Survey showed that Rizal Province at a height of 10 meters above the ground has a minimum wind speed of 7.1 miles per hour duringthe month of June and a maximum wind speed of 12.9 miles per hour during the month of January. The minimum temperature is at 75 degree Fahrenheit during the month of January and maximum temperature is at 89 degree Fahrenheit during the month of May. The existing power plant has an output of 54MW. For the proposed wind power, the power coefficient of turbine is 35% and the generator efficiency is 95%. Theimpeller diameter is assumed not to exceed 90m. Determine the following:a. Theoretical Wind Power Outputb. Electrical Power Outputc. Number of turbines to be installed
Please include explanation. A 6-MW offshore wind turbine has a capacity factor of 40%. It has a height of 120 m, and 107-m long blades. The angular acceleration is 1.388 rad/s2. Assume that the distance from the center of the turbine to the connection with the blade is negligible, and that the turbine starts from rest. At ? = 12 s, calculate the velocity and the acceleration for points (a) at half the length and (b) at the tip of the blade.
You walk along the beach towards a dock while your friend rows a boat towards the same dock on a flat lake. Your friend's boat approaches the dock on a straight course, but also rotates about its center-of-mass since your friend is not pulling evenly on the oars. If you knew your own velocity (vwalker), the magnitude of boat's angular velocity (thetaboat), and radius vector from yourself to your friend in the boat (rfriend) at any given time, you could use the following equation to calculate the your friend's velocity: vfriend = vwalker + (thetaboat)k x rfriend where k is a unit vector in the vertical direction. True False
A car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly over a time of 5.21 seconds for a distance of 110 m. accelerates down a runway at 3.20 m/s2 for 32.8 s until is finally lifts off the ground, If Upton free falls for 2.60 seconds. The takeoff speed for this plane will be 65 m/s. Assuming this minimum acceleration, what is the minimum allowed length for the runway? I want typed good format answer.Please don't skip it as advanced physics as it is simple physics problem.
