The New Haven Green, a square reserved for the public, is now a pedestrian area surrounded by stately trees, the Yale campus, and an assortment of museums and architecturally significant homes and churches. The downtown is generally clean and attractive and is known for its large number of trees.
A 0.500-kg glider, attached to the end of an ideal spring with force constant k = 450 N/m, undergoes SHM with an amplitude of 0.040 m. Compute (a) The maximum speed of the glider; (b) The speed of the glider when it is at x = -0.015 m; (c) The magnitude of the maximum acceleration of the glider; (d) The acceleration of the glider at x = -0.015 m; (e) The total mechanical energy of the glider at any point in its motion.
The best glide distance with engines windmilling is obtained with a clean airplane configuration and with a glide speed of 160 to 170 knots. At this speed, the Learjet 25 glides approximately 26 nautical miles for each 10000 feet of altitude loss.
