The aircraft carrier is moving at a constant speed and launches a jet plane with a mass
Question:
The aircraft carrier is moving at a constant speed and launches a jet plane with a mass of 3 Mg in a distance of 75 m along the deck by means of a steam-driven catapult. If the plane leaves the deck with a velocity of 240 km/h relative to the carrier and if the jet thrust is constant at 22 kN during takeoff, compute the constant force P exerted by the catapult on the airplane during the 75-m travel of the launch carriage.

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
