A stone is dropped at t = 0. A second stone, with 6 times the mass of the first, is dropped from the same point at t = 160 ms. (

a) How far below the release point is the center of mass of the two stones at t = 290 ms? (Neither stone has yet reached the ground.) (b) How fast is the center of mass of the two-stone system moving at that time?

Answer with Explanation:

Let mass of one stone=m_1=m

Mass of second stone,m'=6 m

a.t_1=290 ms=290\times 10^{-3} s

1 ms=10^{-3} s

t=160 ms=160\times 10^{-3} s

t'=t-t_1=290\times 10^{-3}-160\times 10^{-3}=130\times 10^{-3} s

Initial velocity=u_1=u'=0

y_1=\frac{1}{2} gt^2_1=\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(290\times 10^{-3})^2=0.412 m

Where g=9.8 m/s^2

y'=\frac{1}{2}gt'^2=\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(130\times 10^{-3})^2=0.0828 m

Center of mass=\frac{m_1y_1+m'y'}{m_1+m'}

Center of mass=\frac{m(0.412)+6m(0.0828)}{m+6m}=\frac{m(0.412+6(0.0828)}{7m}=0.13 m

b.v=u+gt

Using the formula

v_1=9.8(290\times 10^{-3})=2.8m/s

v'=9.8(130\times 10^{-3})=1.27m/s

Velocity of center of mass=\frac{m_1v_1+m'v'}{m_1+m'}

Velocity of center of mass=\frac{m(2.8)+6m(1.27)}{m+6m}=\frac{m(2.8+6(1.27)}{7m}=1.49 m/s

A heat pump is to be used for heating a house in winter. The house is to be maintained at 70°F at all times. When the temperatur
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

\dot{W_{H} } = 4244.48 Btu/h

Explanation:

Temperature of the house, T_{H} = 70^{0} F

Convert to rankine, T_{H} = 70^{0}+ 460 = 530 R

Heat is extracted at 40°F i.e T_{L} = 40^{0}F  = 40 + 460 = 500 R

Calculate the coefficient of performance of the heat pump, COP

COP = \frac{T_{H} }{T_{H} - T_{L}  } \\COP = \frac{530 }{530 - 500  }\\ COP = \frac{530}{30} \\COP = 17.67

The minimum power required to run the heat pump is given by the formula:

\dot{W_{H} } = \frac{\dot{Q_{H} }}{COP} \\...............(*)

Where the heat losses from the house, \dot{Q_{H} } = 75,000 Btu/h

Substituting these values into * above

\dot{W_{H} } = \frac{75000}{17.67} \\ \dot{W_{H} } = 4244.48 Btu/h
