One of the largest planes ever to fly, and the largest to fly frequently, is
the Ukrainian-built Antonov An-124 Ruslan. Its wingspan is 73.2 m
and its length is 69.2 m. The gravitational potential energy associated
with the plane at an altitude of 1.45 km is 3.36 x 10^9 J. What is the airpanes mass

Show work pls :)

Respuesta :

The gravitational potential energy associated with the plane is 2.36 x [tex]10^{5}[/tex] J

What is gravitational potential energy?

Gravitational potential energy is energy an object possesses because of its position in a gravitational field.

It is given by P.E = mgh

where m = mass

g= acceleration due to gravity

h = height of the object

Here,

h = 1.45km  = 1450 m

P.E = 3.36 x [tex]10^{9}[/tex] J

g = 9.8m/[tex]s^{2}[/tex]

therefore, m = P.E/ gh = (3.36 x [tex]10^{9}[/tex]s J)/ 9.8 x 1450

m = 2.36 x [tex]10^{5}[/tex]

Hence mass of the airplane is 2.36 x [tex]10^{5}[/tex]
