Physics Newton's Laws of Motion Conservation of Linear Momentum Impulse MCQ (Single Correct)

A jet plane flies in the air because

A
The gravity does not act on bodies moving with high speeds
B
The thrust of the jet compensates for the force of gravity
C
The flow of air around the wings causes an upward force, which compensates for the force of gravity
D
The weight of air whose volume is equal to the volume of the plane is more than the weight of the plane

Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
B

Initially, when the plane is taking off, thrust force is more than the force of gravity. When it is in the air, the force of gravity is compensated by the thrust of the jet. And when the plane lands, at that point of time, the thrust force is less than the force of gravity.
