Answer:
a) P = 1240 lb/ft^2
b) P = 1040 lb/ft^2
c) P = 1270 lb/ft^2
Explanation:
Given:
- P_a = 2216.2 lb/ft^2
- β = 0.00357 R/ft
- g = 32.174 ft/s^2
- T_a = 518.7 R
- R = 1716 ft-lb / slug-R
- γ = 0.07647 lb/ft^3
- h = 14,110 ft
Find:
(a) Determine the pressure at this elevation using the standard atmosphere equation.
(b) Determine the pressure assuming the air has a constant specific weight of 0.07647 lb/ft3.
(c) Determine the pressure if the air is assumed to have a constant temperature of 59 oF.
Solution:
- The standard atmospheric equation is expressed as:
P = P_a* ( 1 - βh/T_a)^(g / R*β)
(g / R*β) = 32.174 / 1716*0.0035 = 5.252
P = 2116.2*(1 - 0.0035*14,110/518.7)^5.252
P = 1240 lb/ft^2
- The air density method which is expressed as:
P = P_a - γ*h
P = 2116.2 - 0.07647*14,110
P = 1040 lb/ft^2
- Using constant temperature ideal gas approximation:
P = P_a* e^ ( -g*h / R*T_a )
P = 2116.2* e^ ( -32.174*14110 / 1716*518.7 )
P = 1270 lb/ft^2
Answer:
F = - k (x-xo) a graph of the weight or applied force against the elongation obtaining a line already proves Hooke's law.
Explanation:
The student wants to prove hooke's law which has the form
F = - k (x-xo)
To do this we hang the spring in a vertical position and mark the equilibrium position on a tape measure, to simplify the calculations we can make this point zero by placing our reference system in this position.
Now for a series of known masses let's get them one by one and measure the spring elongation, building a table of weight vs elongation,
we must be careful when hanging the weights so as not to create oscillations in the spring
we look for the mass of each weight
W = mg
m = W / g
and we write them in a new column, we make a graph of the weight or applied force against the elongation and it should give a straight line; the slope of this line is sought, which is the spring constant.
The fact of obtaining a line already proves Hooke's law.
I think that from the answers above the answer is B.
