It's possible for a determined group of people to pull an aircraft. drag is negligible at low speeds, and the only force impeding motion is the rolling friction of the rubber tires on the concrete runway. in 2000, a team of 60 british police officers set a world record by pulling a boeing 747, with a mass of 200,000 kg, a distance of 100 m in 53 s. the plane started at rest. suppose that the rolling friction coefficient = 0.02.
estimate the force with which each officer pulled on the plane, assuming constant pulling force and constant acceleration.

Explanation:

initial speed of the aircraft = 0

it covers a distance = 100 m

time taken by it = 53 s

so we will have

now we know that there are two forces on the aircraft

1) applied force in forward direction

2) friction force in opposite direction

so we will have

so net force by 60 officers is 53440 N

so force due to each officer is given as

that would be because of both gravity and friction. so     c

bacteria that live on the ocean floor are sustained by phytoplankton. phytoplankton, microscopic marine photosynthetic organisms, have a vastly significant role to play not only in the marine food web of which they’re part of, but also on a more global scale. despite their infinitely small size in comparison to other marine organisms, these tiny creatures occupy an immensely important ecological niche: they are the foundation of the marine food web, and as primary producers, play key roles in supporting all other organisms in the marine environment, as well as in the regulation of the earth’s climate through the sequestration of carbon, oxygen production, and other related processes. phytoplankton account for roughly half of all global primary productivity; therefore, their significance extends far beyond the marine environment alone. there is an intriguing sense of irony in the realization that these tiny living beings that often live out their existence unnoticed and undetected by the rest of the world, have such a far-reaching impact on the lives of virtually all other living organisms on the planet, particularly on those in the marine environment. the world that we have become accustomed to has been and is continuously shaped by the workings of these miniscule yet vital “plants of the sea”.

hope this !
