An airplane of mass 1.50 104 kg is in level flight, initially moving at 60.0 m/s. The resistive force exerted by air on the airplane has a magnitude of 4.0 104 N. By Newtons third law, if the engines exert a force on the exhaust gases to expel them out of the back of the engine, the exhaust gases exert a force on the engines in the direction of the airplanes travel. This force is called thrust, and the value of the thrust in this situation is 7.50 104 N. (a) Is the work done by the exhaust gases on the airplane during some time interval equal to the change in the airplanes kinetic energy? Explain. (b) Find the speed of the airplane after it has traveled 5.0 102 m.

As a fish jumps vertically out of the water, assume that only two significant forces act on it: an upward force F exerted by the tail fin and the downward force due to gravity. A record Chinook salmon has a length of 1.50 m and a mass of 61.0 kg. If this fish is moving upward at 3.00 m/s as its head first breaks the surface and has an upward speed of 6.00 m/s after two-thirds of its length has left the surface, assume constant acceleration and determine (a) the salmons acceleration and (b) the magnitude of the force F during this interval.
