The correct Answer is:
To find the net vertical force on the aeroplane, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Calculate the pressure difference using Bernoulli's principle. According to Bernoulli's principle, the pressure difference between the upper and lower surfaces of the wing can be calculated using the formula: \[ P_2 - P_1 = \frac{1}{2} \rho (V_1^2 - V_2^2) \] Where: - \( \rho \) = density of air = 1.2 kg/m³ - \( V_1 \) = speed of air above the wing = 70 m/s - \( V_2 \) = speed of air below the wing = 60 m/s Substituting the values: \[ P_2 - P_1 = \frac{1}{2} \times 1.2 \times (70^2 - 60^2) \] Calculating \( 70^2 \) and \( 60^2 \): \[ 70^2 = 4900 \quad \text{and} \quad 60^2 = 3600 \] Thus, \[ P_2 - P_1 = \frac{1}{2} \times 1.2 \times (4900 - 3600) = \frac{1}{2} \times 1.2 \times 1300 \] Calculating further: \[ P_2 - P_1 = 0.6 \times 1300 = 780 \text{ Pascals} \] ### Step 2: Calculate the upward force due to pressure difference. The upward force (thrust force) can be calculated using the pressure difference and the area of the wing: \[ F = (P_2 - P_1) \times A \] Where: - \( A \) = area of the wing = 14 m² Substituting the values: \[ F = 780 \times 14 = 10920 \text{ Newtons} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the weight of the aeroplane. The weight of the aeroplane can be calculated using the formula: \[ W = m \times g \] Where: - \( m \) = mass of the aeroplane = 1000 kg - \( g \) = acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s² Substituting the values: \[ W = 1000 \times 10 = 10000 \text{ Newtons} \] ### Step 4: Calculate the net vertical force. The net vertical force \( F_{net} \) acting on the aeroplane is the difference between the upward force and the weight of the aeroplane: \[ F_{net} = F - W \] Substituting the values: \[ F_{net} = 10920 - 10000 = 920 \text{ Newtons} \] ### Conclusion The net vertical force on the aeroplane is **920 Newtons** acting upwards. ---
