Answer:
magnitude of the Coriolis acceleration is 44.235 ft/s² and the direction of the acceleration is along the axis of transmission
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
Speed of carousel N = 24 rpm
From the diagram below, selected path direction defines the Axis of slip.
Hence, The Coriolis is acting along the axis of transmission
Now, we determine the angular speed ω of the carousel.
ω = 2πN / 60
we substitute in the value of N
ω = (2π × 24) / 60
ω = 2.5133 rad/s
Next, we convert the given velocity from mph to ft/s
we know that; 1 mph = 1.4667 ft/s
so
= 6 mph = ( 6 × 1.4667 ) = 8.8002 ft/s
Now, we determine the magnitude of the Coriolis acceleration
= 2(
× ω )
we substitute
= 2( 8.8002 ft/s × 2.5133 rad/s )
= 44.235 ft/s²
Hence, magnitude of the Coriolis acceleration is 44.235 ft/s² and the direction of the acceleration is along the axis of transmission
