Answer:

(a) Time period is 8.85 s

(b) Normal force at the highest point is 390.2 N

(c) Normal force at the lowest point is 1217 N

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of person, m = 82.0 kg

Radius of the wheel, r = 10.0 m

Speed of the wheel, v = 7.10 m/s

(a) Time period of the circular motion is determine by the relation:

T=\frac{2\pi r}{v}

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

T=\frac{2\pi\times10 }{7.10}

T = 8.85 s

(b) The normal force ( F ) at the highest point of the circular path is given by the relation:

F = F₁ - F₂     ....(1)

Here F₁ is gravitational downward force acting on the person and F₂ is the centripetal force.

Gravitational Force, F₁ = mg

Here g is acceleration due to Earth's gravity.

Centripetal force, F₂ = mv²/r

Thus, the equation (1) becomes:

F=mg-\frac{mv^{2} }{r}

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

F=82\times9.8-\frac{82\times7.10^{2} }{10}

F = 390.2 N

(c) The normal force ( F ) at the lowest point of the circular path is given by the relation:

F = F₁ + F₂     ....(2)

Here F₁ is gravitational downward force acting on the person and F₂ is the centripetal force.

Thus the equation (2) becomes:

F=mg+\frac{mv^{2} }{r}

F=82\times9.8+\frac{82\times7.10^{2} }{10}

F = 1217 N

If the relative humidity is 25 nd the saturation mixing ratio is 24g/kg, what is the mixing ratio?
levacccp [35]

The mixing ratio is 6.

To find the answer, we have to know about the mixing ratio.

<h3>What is mixing ratio?</h3>
  • The mixing ratio must be calculated in a complex manner.
  • A saturated vapor pressure (es) for values of air temperature and an actual vapor pressure (e) for values of dewpoint temperature must be determined in order to determine the mixing ratio.
  • The air temperature and/or dewpoint temperature must first be converted to degrees Celsius (°C) before the vapor pressures can be calculated.
  • The equation below can be used to determine the relative humidity (rh), as well as the actual mixing ratio and saturated mixing ratio,

                         Rh=\frac{w}{w_s} *100

where; w is the mixing ratio and w(s) is the saturation mixing ratio.

  • In our question, it is given that,

                                    Rh=25\\w_s=24

  • Thus, the mixing ratio will be,

                            w=\frac{Rh*w_s}{100} =\frac{25*24}{100}=6

Thus, we can conclude that, the mixing ratio is 6.

A long uniform board weighs 52.8 N (10.6 lbs) rests on a support at its mid point. Two children weighing 206.0 N (41.2 lbs) and
natima [27]

The upward force exerted on the board by the support is 530.8 N.

<h3>Upward force exerted on the board by the support</h3>

The sum of the upward forces is equal to sum of downward forces;

total downward forces = 52.8 N + 206 N + 272 N = 530.8 N

downward force = upward force = 530.8 N

Thus, the upward force exerted on the board by the support is 530.8 N.
