How would you weight a plane without scales?

Answers:* Disassemble the plane and load it onto a cargo ship. The ship will sink lower into the water with the plane on board than it was before. The change in freeboard will translate into a tonnage loaded. * Compact the plane into as tight a cube as possible. The volume of the cube multiplied by the density of the main component of the plane (e.g. aluminum) will provide a good estimate of the weight. * Toe the plane down a long runway at increasing speed. At the wind speed that the plane lifts off the back calculation of the engineering for the wings will tell you the "lift" provided. This will equal the weight


How does an inclined plane reduce the amount of only force needed?

An inclined plane is a surface that is not horizontal (level), with one end higher than the other. Pushing a broken down car is much easier and takes less effort downhill, than to push the same car uphill.


What simple machine is a staircase?

an inclined plane. Take out the steps on a staircase. It looks like a line that goes up at an angle right? That's basically what in inclined plane is. It is a basic function that exerts smaller amounts of energy over a longer period of time. In simpler terms, it makes going upstairs easier than climbing a ladder to the upper floor.


How can large ships float in water?

The mass of water expelled by the ship is more than the mass of the ship. Hence the buoyant force is more than the weight of the ship and so ship floats.


Why you see the fighter plane first but hear the plane later?

Because it is travelling faster than the speed of sound, the sound comes later. However, if a fighter plane was slower than the speed of sound, you'd see the plane first.

Would it be easier for a plane to fly higher in an atmosphere less dense than Earths?

i No, ;it would be easier in denser air. Less dense air gives nothing for the wings of the plane to use to propel itself upwards. Less dense air would make the plane crash.

How can a fixed inclined plane make work easier no it can't.?

inclined plane makes life easier according to the length of the inclined plane.if we use a longer inclined plane,we will use less effort but the distace moved by the effort is greater than the load.but if we use a shorter inclined plane,we need to use more effort but the distance moved by the effort is less than the load.

In which ways have ship building changed?

Ship building has become more computerized and safer since back in the days. Modular style building has largely replaced rib style building previously used in old ship yards. It provides easier construction and more measure of control over the build of the ships than before along with giving the workers more safety.
