An early submersible craft for deep-sea exploration was raised and lowered by a cable from a ship. When the craft was stationary, the tension in the cable was 5500 N. When the craft was lowered or raised at a steady rate, the motion through the water added an 1800 N drag force. What was the tension in the cable when the craft was being lowered to the seafloor?

for a craft with a mass of 1500 kg.

Explanation:

Let consider that craft has a mass of 1500 kg. The submersible craft is modelled after the Newton's Laws, whose equation of equilibrium is:

The tension experimented by the cable while the craft is lowering to the seafloor is:

they should be similar or the same

answer: the exterior temperature of commercial jet planes as they leave the stratosphere and return to the ground increases steadily.

explanation:

the lower most layer of atmosphere is troposphere which extends from 0 to 12 km above the surface of the earth. the temperature initially decreases as distance is increased from the earth's surface. commercial jets fly in lower part of the stratosphere. the stratosphere extends upto 50 km. the temperature in stratosphere starts rising again due to presence of ozone which traps the uv rays.

thus, when the planes leave the stratosphere and return to the ground, the exterior temperature increases steadily.
