Motion In Straight Line

Question
CBSEENPH11026276

The engine of a jet aircraft applies a thrown force of 105 N during take off and causes the plane to attain a velocity of 1 km/s in 10 s. The mass of the plane is

  • 102 kg

  • 103 kg

  • 104 kg

  • 105 kg

Solution

B.

103 kg

Given:- Force F = 105 N

  Velocity during take off = 1 km/s = 1000 m

      i.e       initial velocity = 0

Hence Change in velocity = (103 - 0) 

 And time t = 1

The acceleration produced in jet

             α =Change in velocitytime

             α = 103 - 010

                 = 100 m/s2

∴ Mass = Forceacceleration

          = 105102

⇒  Mass = 103 kg
