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
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
= 100 m/s2
∴ Mass =
=
⇒ Mass = 103 kg
