The power required to maintain level flight depends on air drag or resistance at that altitude, which may be estimated by the relationship 1 power = Pe C„AU³ air where pr is density of air at the given altitude, C, represents the drag coefficient of the plane, A is the planform area, and U represents the cruising speed of the plane. Assume that a plane is moving at constant speed and, C, remaining constant, determine the ratio of power that would be required when the plane is cruising at 8000 m and when the plane is cruising at 11,000 m.arrow_forwardFor a short period of time, the frictional driving force acting on the wheels of the 2.7-Mg van is FD = (600t²) N, where t is in seconds.

- A person who has a weight of 158 pound-force [lb; on Earth is travelling to Mars in a spacecraft. As long as the engines on the spacecraft are not operating, the person is essentially weightless during the voyage. During a course correction, the spacecraft undergoes an acceleration of 0.81 g. The tem "g" is the Earth-normal gravity, so 1 "g" is 9.8 meters per second squared [m's1. This acceleration makes it feel like there is gravity in the spacecraft, and the person will have a perceived weight during the acceleration period, rather than feeling weightless. Once the person reaches Mars, what is the mass, in units of kilograms [kg), and weight, in units of pound-force [lb], of the person on Mars?
