- A fighter jet is launched from an aircraft carrier with the aid of its own engines and a steam-powered catapult. The thrust of its engines is 2.37 x 105 N. In being launched from rest it moves through a distance of 80.6 m and has a kinetic energy of 4.56 x 107 J at lift-off. What is the work done on the jet by the catapult?arrow_forwardMeasurements in the 1800s showed that a draft horse could provide a maximum steady output power over the course of a working day; that’s how the “horsepower,” about 750 W, came to be defined. Another animal that’s used for pulling loads for which there are good data is the sled dog. A 38 kg dog can provide power to pull a sled with a force of 60 N at a steady 2.2 m/s. Dogs and horses have approximately the same 25% metabolic efficiency as humans.
