Use the Following Scenario to Answer the Next Problem 10-4 X2 Where Yo Is the Highest Point, and X
Multiple Choice
Use the following scenario to answer the next problem.
NASA's "Weightless Wonder" flights can simulate "zero-g" or some other extraterrestrial gravity by flying a C-9 jet plane in a parabolic path. One path the plane takes is expressed as y = yo + 0.8 x - 1.02 10-4 x2 where yo is the highest point, and x and y are the horizontal and vertical coordinates (in m) .
-What is the horizontal speed of the plane if the flight is to simulate lunar gravity,
GMoon = 1.62 m/s2.
A) 50 m/s
B) 100 m/s
C) 150 m/s
D) 200 m/s
E) 250 m/s
