A small private plane is currently playing this to an island the plane is 0.9 km on the air.ifvthe potential energy of the plane and it's three passengers is 48510000 j what is the combined mass of the plane and it's passengers? Round your answer to the nearest tenth place

Respuesta :

Answer:

the mass = 5494.4[kg]

Explanation:

In order to find the joint mass of the plane and the passengers, we must use the following equation:

[tex]E_{p} =m*g*h\\[/tex]

Where:

m = mass [kg]

g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]

h = elevation = 0.9 [km]

Now clearing the term m

[tex]m =\frac{E_{k}}{g*h}\\ m = \frac{48510000}{9.81*900}\\ m = 5494.4 [kg][/tex]
