Environmental science enlightens us on how to conserve our environment in the face of increasing human population growth and anthropogenic activities that degrade natural resources and ecosystems.

Explanation:

The scope of environmental studies is very wide and it deals with many areas like:

(i) Conservation of natural resources,

(ii) ecological aspects,

(iii) pollution of the surrounding natural resources,

(iv) controlling the pollution,

(v) social issues connected to it, and

(vi) impacts of human population on the environment.

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

A. Technician A only.B.

Explanation: The fuel system of a vehicle is made up of the fuel pump,the fuel filter,the injector or carburettor and the fuel tank. The main function of the fuel system is supply fuel to the engine of a vehicle. In order to check for leakage in the fuel system a small pressure smoke is usually installed in the fuel system.

Nitrogen at low pressure has also been used to check for leakage in the fuel system of a vehicle.

If the briefcase hits the water 6.0 s later, what was the speed at which the helicopter was ascending?
vovikov84 [41]

Complete Question

In an action movie, the villain is rescued from the ocean by grabbing onto the ladder hanging from a helicopter. He is so intent on gripping the ladder that he lets go of his briefcase of counterfeit money when he is 130 m above the water. If the briefcase hits the water 6.0 s later, what was the speed at which the helicopter was ascending?

Answer:

The speed of the helicopter is u  =  7.73 \  m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The height at which he let go of the brief case is  h =  130 m  

    The  time taken before the the brief case hits the water is  t =  6 s

Generally the initial speed of the  briefcase (Which also the speed of the helicopter )before the man let go of it is  mathematically evaluated using kinematic equation as

      s = h+  u t +  0.5 gt^2

Here s  is the distance covered by the bag at sea level which is zero

      0 = 130+  u * (6) +  0.5  *  (-9.8) * (6)^2

=>    0 = 130+  u * (6) +  0.5  *  (-9.8) * (6)^2

=>   u  =  \frac{-130 +  (0.5 * 9.8 *  6^2) }{6}

=>   u  =  7.73 \  m/s

The flywheel of a steam engine runs with a constant angular velocity of 140 rev/min. When steam is shut off, the friction of the
ratelena [41]

Answer:

A) α = -1.228 rev/min²

B) 7980 revolutions

C) α_t = -8.57 x 10^(-4) m/s²

D) α = 21.5 m/s²

Explanation:

A) Using first equation of motion, we have;

ω = ω_o + αt

Where,

ω_o is initial angular velocity

α is angular acceleration

t is time the flywheel take to slow down to rest.

We are given, ω_o = 140 rev/min ; t = 1.9 hours = 1.9 x 60 seconds = 114 s ; ω = 0 rev/min

Thus,

0 = 140 + 114α

α = -140/114

α = -1.228 rev/min²

B) the number of revolutions would be given by the equation of motion;

S = (ω_o)t + (1/2)αt²

S = 140(114) - (1/2)(1.228)(114)²

S ≈ 7980 revolutions

C) we want to find tangential component of the velocity with r = 40cm = 0.4m

We will need to convert the angular acceleration to rad/s²

Thus,

α = -1.228 x (2π/60²) = - 0.0021433 rad/s²

Now, formula for tangential acceleration is;

α_t = α x r

α_t = - 0.0021433 x 0.4

α_t = -8.57 x 10^(-4) m/s²

D) we are told that the angular velocity is now 70 rev/min.

Let's convert it to rad/s;

ω = 70 x (2π/60) = 7.33 rad/s

So, radial angular acceleration is;

α_r = ω²r = 7.33² x 0.4

α_r = 21.49 m/s²

Thus, magnitude of total linear acceleration is;

α = √((α_t)² + (α_r)²)

α = √((-8.57 x 10^(-4))² + (21.49)²)

α = √461.82

α = 21.5 m/s²
