Define torque qualitatively and quantitatively.

2 answers:

5 0

The rotational effect of a force is called torque. It is also called as moment of force.

QUANTITATIVELY,

T = F * r * sin(theta)
T = torque
F = linear force
r = distance measured from the axis of rotation to where the linear force is applied
theta = the angle between F and r

When you use a wrench to tighten or loosen a nut on a bolt, you are applying torque. It is measured in units of force times distance. A force of F newtons pulling on a handle of L meters in length would supply a torque of F L newton-meters. More technically, torque is the vector cross product of force times perpendicular distance from the object, F x r = F r sin @

A student team is to design a human powered submarine for a design competition. The overall length of the prototype submarine is

Allushta [10]

Answer:

a) The speed is 61.42 m/s

b) The drag force is 10.32 N

Explanation:

a) The Reynold´s number for the model and prototype is:

$Re_{m} =\frac{p_{m}V_{m}L_{m} }{u_{m} }$

$Re_{p} =\frac{p_{p}V_{p}L_{p} }{u_{p} }$

Equaling both Reynold's number:

$\frac{p_{p}V_{p}L_{p} }{u_{p} }=\frac{p_{m}V_{m}L_{m} }{u_{m} }$

Clearing Vm:

$V_{m} =\frac{p_{p}V_{p}L_{p} u_{m} }{u_{p} p_{m} L_{m} }=\frac{999.1*0.56*8*1.849x10^{-5} }{1.138x10^{-3}*1.184*1 } =61.42m/s$

b) The drag force is:

$\frac{F_{Dm} }{p_{m}V_{m}^{2}L_{m}^{2} } =\frac{F_{Dp} }{p_{p}V_{p}^{2}L_{p}^{2} } \\F_{Dp} =\frac{F_{Dp}p_{p}V_{p}^{2}L_{p}^{2} }{p_{m}V_{m}^{2}L_{m}^{2} } \\F_{Dp}=\frac{2.3*999.1*0.56^{2} *8^{2} }{1.184*61.42^{2}*1^{2} } =10.32N$

Why does the frequency of water increase as the wavelength decreases?

Oliga [24]

Answer:

Wave speed, frequency and wavelength in refraction

Explanation:

The diagram shows that as a wave travels into a denser medium, such as water, it slows down and the wavelength decreases. Although the wave slows down, its frequency remains the same, due to the fact that its wavelength is shorter. Hope this helps :>

So lost on this one number 1 ?

kirza4 [7]

Read each statement, one at a time, and form the picture in your mind.

<em>Statement #1</em> should make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

Statements #2, #3, and #4 should make your red flag wave on the inside, and should make you giggle on the outside when you realize how absurd each of those is.
