A jet with mass m = 8 × 104 kg jet accelerates down the runway for takeoff at 1.5 m/s2.

I have Found out so far that...
1) net horizontal force(takeoff) = 120000
2)Net vertical force(takeoff) = 0
Now... Once off the ground, the plane climbs upward for 20 seconds. During this time, the vertical speed increases from zero to 20 m/s, while the horizontal speed increases from 80 m/s to 96 m/s.
3)What is the net horizontal force on the airplane as it climbs upward = 64000
I need help here...
4) What is the net vertical force on the airplane as it climbs upward?

Answer:

Part 4


F_(net) = 8 * 10^4 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 4)

As we know that mass of the Jet is given as


m = 8 * 10^4 kg

now in vertical direction the speed of the jet is changing from zero to 20 m/s

so we can say


v_i = 0


v_f = 20 m/s

now time taken to change the speed is given as


\Delta t = 20 s

now we can find the acceleration of the jet


a = (20 - 0)/(20)


a = 1 m/s^2

now net force on the jet is given as


F_(net) = ma


F_(net) = (8 * 10^4)(1)


F_(net) = 8 * 10^4 N

The net vertical force for this jet that is accelerating from 0 m/s to 20 m/s over 20 seconds is:

F=ma=m(V2-V1)/(t2-t1)

where V2 is the final speed and V1 is the initial speed and t2 is the final time and t1 is the initial time.

F=(8x10^4kg)(20m/s - 0 m/s)/20s =(8x10^4kg)(1m/s^2) = 8x10^4 N
