To unload a bound stack of plywood from a truck, the driver first tilts the bed of the truck and then accelerates from rest. Kno

wing that the coefficients of friction between the bottom sheet of plywood and the bed are fJK = 0.40 and fik = 0.30, determine (a) the smallest acceleration of the truck which will cause the stack of plywood to slide, (b) the acceleration of the truck which causes corner A of the stack of plywood to reach the end of the bed in 0.4 s.

Answer:

a) The truck must have an acceleration of at least 3.92 * cos(θ)^2 for the stack to start sliding.

b) a = 2.94 * cos(θ)^2 + 0.32 * L * cos(θ)

Explanation:

The stack of plywood has a certain mass. The weight will depend on that mass.

w = m * g

There will be a normal reaction between the stack and the bed of the truck, this will be:

nr = -m * g * cos(θ)

Being θ the tilt angle of the bed.

The static friction force will be:

ffs = - m * g * cos(θ) * fJK

The dynamic friction force will be:

ffd = - m * g * cos(θ) * fik

These forces would produce accelerations

affs = -g * cos(θ) * fJK

affd = -g * cos(θ) * fik

affs = -9.81 * cos(θ) * 0.4 = -3.92 * cos(θ)

affd = -9.81 * cos(θ) * 0.3 = -2.94 * cos(θ)

These accelerations oppose to movement and must be overcome by another acceleration to move the stack.

The acceleration of the truck is horizontal, the horizontal component of these friction forces is:

affs = -3.92 * cos(θ)^2

affd = -2.94 * cos(θ)^2

The truck must have an acceleration of at least 3.92 * cos(θ)^2 for the stack to start sliding.

Assuming the bed has a lenght L.

The horizontal movement will be over a distance cos(θ) * L because L is tilted.

Movement under constant acceleration:

X(t) = X0 + V0 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2

In this case X0 = 0, V0 = 0, and a will be the sum of the friction force minus the acceleration of the truck.

If we set the frame of reference with the origin on the initial position of the stack and the positive X axis pointing backwards, the acceleration of the truck will now be negative and the dynamic friction acceleration positive.

L * cos(θ) = 1/2 * (2.94 * cos(θ)^2 - a) * 0.4^2

2.94 * cos(θ)^2 - a = 2 * 0.16 * L * cos(θ)

a = 2.94 * cos(θ)^2 + 0.32 * L * cos(θ)

The difference between an initial condition and a boundary condition for conduction in a solid is:___________
leva [86]

Answer:

c. an initial condition specifies the temperature at the start of the problem and a boundary condition provides information about temperatures on the boundaries.

Explanation:

Conduction refers to the transfer of thermal energy or electric charge as a result of the movement of particles. When the conduction relates to electric charge, it is known as electrical conduction while when it relates to thermal energy, it is known as heat conduction.

In the process of heat conduction, thermal energy is usually transferred from fast moving particles to slow moving particles during the collision of these particles. Also, thermal energy is typically transferred between objects that has different degrees of temperature and materials (particles) that are directly in contact with each other but differ in their ability to accept or give up electrons.

Any material or object that allow the conduction (transfer) of electric charge or thermal energy is generally referred to as a conductor. Conductors include metal, steel, aluminum, copper, frying pan, pot, spoon etc.

Hence, the difference between an initial condition and a boundary condition for conduction in a solid is that an initial condition specifies the temperature at the start of the problem and a boundary condition provides information about temperatures on the boundaries.

What is the physical significance of the Reynolds number?. How is defined for external flow over a plate of length L.
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

Re=\dfrac{\rho\ v\ l}{\mu }

Explanation:

Reynolds number:

  Reynolds number describe the type of flow.If Reynolds number is too high then flow is called turbulent flow and Reynolds is  low then flow is called laminar flow .

Reynolds number is a dimensionless number.Reynolds number given is the ratio of inertia force to the viscous force.

Re=\dfrac{F_i}{F_v}

For plate can be given as

Re=\dfrac{\rho\ v\ l}{\mu }

Where  ρ is the density of fluid , v is the average velocity of fluid and μ is the dynamic viscosity of fluid.

Flow on plate is a external flow .The values of Reynolds number for different flow given as

Reynolds\ number\is \ >\ 5 \times 10 ^5\ then\ flow\ will\ be\ turbulent.

The principal value of a Pareto diagram is as a
vlada-n [284]

The Pareto principle is that most things in our life are not commonly distributed.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Pareto chart shows that most of the things which we have in our life and the resources in our life are not equally distributed. The ratio is not always 50:50 according to this principle.

The most important use of a Pareto diagram is to show the most important factor among the set of factors that have been shown. Along with that it also shows the sources which lead to the common defects in the system and tries to solve those defects which occur most often.
