If initial speed of an object is v = 1340 ft/s. When it hits a wall it sinks in 5 in. If velocity of object while in the wall is

v = vo – kx (ft/s) and (x in feet), find a) the initial acceleration when object enters wall and b) time needed to sink 4.5 in.

Answer:

(a).    a = -4309105 m/s

(b).   t = 7.158 × 10 ⁻⁴ sec

Explanation:

from the question, given that;

initial speed (Vo) = 1340ft/s

 x = 5 in = 0.4167 ft (conversion factor)

 but V = (Vo - Kx)

where a = V dv/dx

∴ a = (Vo-Kx) d/dx (Vo-Kx)

  a = (Vo-Kx) (-K)│x=o

  a = -KVo

therefore, 0 = 1340 - K (0.4167)

K = 1340/ 0.4167 = 3215.75 sec⁻¹

 a = - 3215.75 × 1340

which gives a = -4309105 m/s

(b). given that x = 4.5 in = 0.375 ft

      V = dx/dt = V₀ - Kx

       = \int\limit^{0.375}  _0 {(1/1340 - 3215.75x)} dx = \int\limits^t_0 {} \, dt

    =  - 1/3215.75 \lim_{0 \to \00.375} (1340-3215.75x)

        t = 7.158 × 10 ⁻⁴ sec

3. If a certain quantity of gas has a volume of 30 cm3 at a pressure of 1 × 105 Pa, what is its volume when the pressure is
arlik [135]

We know that:

                             P_{1}V_{1}= P_{2}V_{2}               .......(1)

Given at P_{1}=30cm^3 , V_{1}=10^5Pa

a)

When P_{2}=2*10^5Pa , V_2=?

Using equation (1)

                                    30*10^5=2*10^5*V_2

                                     V_2=30/2=15cm^3

b)

When P_2=5*10^5Pa, V_2=?

using equation (1)

                                     30*10^5=5*10^5*V_2

                                    V_2=30/5=6cm^3

Suppose you have two solid bars, both with square cross-sections of 1 cm2. They are both 24.6 cm long, but one is made of copper
vodka [1.7K]

Explanation:

Expression to calculate thermal resistance for iron (R_{I}) is as follows.

             R_{I} = \frac{L_{I}}{k_{I} \times A_{I}}  

where,   L_{I} = length of the iron bar

             k_{I} = thermal conductivity of iron

             A_{I} = Area of cross-section for the iron bar

Thermal resistance for copper (R_{c}) = \frac{L_{c}}{k_{c} \times A_{c}}[/tex]

where,  L_{c} = length of copper bar

             k_{c} = thermal conductivity of copper

            A_{c} = Area of cross-section for the copper bar

Now, expression for the transfer of heat per unit cell is as follows.

           Q = \frac{(100^{o} - 0^{o}}{\frac{L_{I}}{k_{I}.A_{I}} + \frac{L_{c}}{k_{c}.A_{c}}}

 Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

       Q = \frac{(100^{o} - 0^{o})}{\frac{L_{I}}{k_{I}.A_{I}} + \frac{L_{c}}{k_{c}.A_{c}}}

  = \frac{(100^{o} - 0^{o})}{21 \times 10^{-2} m[\frac{1}{73 \times 10^{-4}m^{2}} + \frac{1}{386 \times 10^{-4}m^{2}}}

           = 2.92 Joule

It is known that heat transfer per unit time is equal to the power conducted through the rod. Hence,

                 P = \frac{Q}{T}

Here, T is 1 second so, power conducted is equal to heat transferred.

So,           P = 2.92 watt

Thus, we can conclude that 2.92 watt power will be conducted through the rod when it reaches steady state.

What is the unit for speed ? For acceleration?
Reptile [31]
Speed - the rate of change of position. 
<span>Speed = Distance / Time. </span>
<span>Common units utilized for speed are meters per second (m/s) or miles per hour (mi/h). </span>

<span>Velocity - the rate of change of position. </span>
<span>Velocity = Displacement / Time. </span>
<span>Common units utilized for velocity are meters per second (m/s) or miles per hour (mi/h). </span>

<span>The main difference between speed and velocity is that speed is a scalar quantity (does not depend on direction) whereas velocity is a vector quantity (which does depend on direction). </span>

<span>Acceleration - Change of velocity over time. </span>
<span>Force = Mass x Acceleration. </span>
<span>Acceleration = Force / Mass. </span>
<span>Common used units of acceleration are meters per second squared (m/s^2). </span>
