Answer: v= 195.2 m/s

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration acts on the bottom of the test tube trying to take it closer to the axis of rotation, and it is defined by the following expression:

ac = v² / r

We know that ac = 5.4. 10⁴ . g = 5.4.10⁴.9.8 m/s²

Expressing r in m ⇒ r = 0.072 m.

So, the only unknown that remains is v, which is the linear speed of the bottom of the test tube, which we want to find out:

v = √ac. r = √5.4.10⁴.9.8 m/s². 0.072 m = 195.2 m/s

Using a forked rod, a 0.5-kg smooth peg P is forced to move along the vertical slotted path r = (0.5 θ) m, whereθ is in radians.
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

N_c = 3.03 N

F = 1.81 N

Explanation:

Given:

- The attachment missing from the question is given:

- The given expressions for the radial and θ direction of motion:

                                       r = 0.5*θ

                                       θ = 0.5*t^2              ...... (correction for the question)

- Mass of peg m = 0.5 kg

Find:

a) Determine the magnitude of the force of the rod on the peg at the instant t = 2 s.

b) Determine the magnitude of the normal force of the slot on the peg.

Solution:

- Determine the expressions for radial kinematics:

                                        dr/dt = 0.5*dθ/dt

                                        d^2r/dt^2 = 0.5*d^2θ/dt^2

- Similarly the expressions for θ direction kinematics:

                                        dθ/dt = t

                                        d^2θ/dt^2 = 1

- Evaluate each at time t = 2 s.

                                        θ = 0.5*t^2 = 0.5*2^2 = 2 rad -----> 114.59°

                                        r = 1 m , dr / dt = 1 m/s , d^2 r / dt^2 = 0.5 m/s^2

- Evaluate the angle ψ between radial and horizontal direction:

                                        tan Ψ = r / (dr/dθ) = 1 / 0.5

                                        Ψ = 63.43°

- Develop a free body diagram (attached) and the compute the radial and θ acceleration:

                                        a_r = d^2r / dt^2 - r * dθ/dt

                                        a_r = 0.5 - 1*(2)^2 = -3.5 m/s^2

                                        a_θ =  r * (d^2θ/dt^2) + 2 * (dr/dt) * (dθ/dt)

                                        a_θ = 1(1) + 2*(1)*(2) = 5 m/s^2

- Using Newton's Second Law of motion to construct equations in both radial and θ directions as follows:

Radial direction:              N_c * cos(26.57) - W*cos(24.59) = m*a_r

θ direction:                      F  - N_c * sin(26.57) + W*sin(24.59) = m*a_θ

Where, F is the force on the peg by rod and N_c is the normal force on peg by the slot. W is the weight of the peg. Using radial equation:

                                       N_c * cos(26.57) - 4.905*cos(24.59) = 0.5*-3.5

                                       N_c = 3.03 N

                                       F  - 3.03 * sin(26.57) + 4.905*sin(24.59) = 0.5*5

                                       F = 1.81 N

Supercharged engine what it does to the car
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

A supercharger is an air compressor that increases the pressure or density of air supplied to an internal combustion engine. This gives each intake cycle of the engine more oxygen, letting it burn more fuel and do more work, thus increasing power.

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

5.328Ibm/hr

Explanation:

Through laboratory tests, thermodynamic tables were developed, these allow to know all the thermodynamic properties of a substance (entropy, enthalpy, pressure, specific volume, internal energy etc ..)  

through prior knowledge of two other properties such as pressure and temperature.  

for this case we can define the following equation for mass flow using the first law of thermodynamics

m=\frac{Q}{h1-h2}

where

Q=capacity of the radiator =5000btu/hr

m = mass flow

then using thermodynamic tables we found entalpy in state 1 and 2

h1(x=0.97, p=16psia)=1123btu/lbm

h2(x=0, p=16psia)=184.5btu/lbm

solving

Q=\frac{5000}{1123-184.5} =5.328Ibm/hr
