A pin fin of uniform, cross-sectional area is fabricated of an aluminum alloy (k = 160 W/m-K). The fin diameter is D = 4 mm, and

frozen [14]

Answer:

Given that

D= 4 mm

K = 160 W/m-K

h=h = 220 W/m²-K

ηf = 0.65

We know that

$m=\sqrt{\dfrac{hP}{KA}}$

For circular fin

$m=\sqrt{\dfrac{4h}{KD}}$

$m=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\times 220}{160\times 0.004}}$

m = 37.08

$\eta_f=\dfrac{tanhmL}{mL}$

$0.65=\dfrac{tanh37.08L}{37.08L}$

By solving above equation we get

L= 36.18 mm

The effectiveness for circular fin given as

$\varepsilon =\dfrac{2\ tanhmL}{\sqrt{\dfrac{hD}{K}}}$

$\varepsilon =\dfrac{2\ tanh(37.08\times 0.03618)}{\sqrt{\dfrac{220\times 0.004}{160}}}$

An open-topped freight car with mass 24,000 kg is coasting without friction along a level track. It is raining very hard, and th

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

(a) v = 3..6 m/s

(b) The rain falling downward has been able to affect the horizontal motion of the car by reducing it's velocity from 4 m/s to 3.6 m/s.

Explanation:

from the question we have the following:

mass of the car (Mc) = 24,000 kg

initial velocity of the car (u) = 4 m/s

mass of water (Mw) = 3000 kg

final velocity of the car (v) = ?

(a) we can calculate the final momentum of the car by applying the conservation of momentum where

initial momentum = final momentum

Mc x U = (Mc + Mw) x V

24000 x 4 = (24000 + 3000) x v

96,000 = 27000v

v =3.6 m/s

(b) The rain falling downward has been able to affect the horizontal motion of the car by reducing it's velocity from 4 m/s to 3.6 m/s.

A machine part has the shape of a solid uniform sphere of mass 250 g and a diameter of 4.30 cm. It is spinning about a frictionl

zysi [14]

Answer: $\alpha =9.302\ rad/s^2$

Explanation:

Given

mass of sphere $m=250\ gm$

diameter of sphere $d=4.30\ cm$

radius $r=\frac{4.30}{2}\ cm$

$f=0.0200\ N$

friction will provide resisting torque so

$f\times r=I\times \alpha$

where $I=\text{moment of Inertia}$

$f=\text{friction force}$

$\alpha =\text{angular acceleration}$

$I=\frac{2}{5}mr^2$

$0.02\times r=\frac{2}{5}mr^2\times \alpha$

$\alpha =\frac{5}{2r}\times f$

$\alpha =\frac{5}{2}\times \frac{2}{4.3\times 10^{-2}}\times 0.02$

$\alpha =9.302\ rad/s^2$

(b)time taken to decrease its rotational speed by $21\ rad/s$

$t=\dfrac{\Delta \omega }{\alpha }$

$t=\dfrac{21}{9.302}$

$t=2.25\ s$

What is the average velocity of the time interval 0 to 4 seconds

Anvisha [2.4K]

Average velocity over a given time interval is the distance traveled divided by the time:
$v= \frac{60m-20m}{4s-0s} =40/4=10 \frac{m}{s}$
