Concept explainers

Moment of Inertia

Inertia can be termed as a resistance offered by a body to change its state. A rigid body initially at rest will apply resistance when acted by an external force that tends to change its state of rest or velocity, or a body initially at motion will provide resistance in changing its state of velocity or motion for coming to a state of rest. In other words, Newton's first law of motion describes the law of inertia of a rigid body.

Question 2: Consider the 5000kg aircraft below being in a 1000m radius looping maneuver (Fig.2). There are 4 forces acting on the aircraft (Weight, Thrust, Lift, Drag). Assuming that they are all approximately perpendicular to eachother at points A,B,C, calculate the following: A. Calculate the Lift Forces at points A, B, C if the aircraft was at a constant speed of 350km/h throughout the maneuver. B. Calculate the Lift Forces at points A, B, C if the aircraft starts the maneuver at point A at a speed of 400km/h, but reduces its speed with constant acceleration so that the pilot feels weightless at point C. C. A human can withstand earth's gravity was more than 9 times what it is now, we would not survive. What is the maximum of 9 times the gravitational acceleration, i.e. if the maximum speed the pilot can enter this maneuver? Figure 2: Looping Aircraft
