A motor vehicle has a mass of 1.8 tonnes and its wheelbase is 3 m. The centre of gravity of the vehicle is situated in the centr

al plane 0.9 m above the ground and 1.7 m behind the front axle. When moving on the level at 90 km/h the brakes applied and it comes to a rest in a distance of 50 m.
Calculate the normal reactions at the front and rear wheels during the braking period and the least coefficient of friction required between the tyres and the road. (Assume g = 10 m/s2)

Answer:

1) The normal reactions at the front wheel is 9909.375 N

The normal reactions at the rear wheel is 8090.625 N

2) The least coefficient of friction required between the tyres and the road is 0.625

Explanation:

1) The parameters given are as follows;

Speed, u = 90 km/h = 25 m/s

Distance, s it takes to come to rest = 50 m

Mass, m = 1.8 tonnes = 1,800 kg

From the equation of motion, we have;

v² - u² = 2·a·s

Where:

v = Final velocity = 0 m/s

a = acceleration

∴ 0² - 25² = 2 × a × 50

a = -6.25 m/s²

Force, F =  mass, m × a = 1,800 × (-6.25) = -11,250 N

The coefficient of friction, μ, is given as follows;

\mu =\dfrac{u^2}{2 \times g \times s} = \dfrac{25^2}{2 \times 10 \times 50} = 0.625

Weight transfer is given as follows;

W_{t}=\dfrac{0.625 \times 0.9}{3}\times \dfrac{6.25}{10}\times 18000 = 2109.375 \, N

Therefore, we have for the car at rest;

Taking moment about the Center of Gravity CG;

F_R × 1.3 = 1.7 × F_F

F_R + F_F = 18000

F_R + \dfrac{1.3 }{1.7} \times  F_R = 18000

F_R = 18000*17/30 = 10200 N

F_F = 18000 N - 10200 N = 7800 N

Hence with the weight transfer, we have;

The normal reactions at the rear wheel F_R  = 10200 N - 2109.375 N = 8090.625 N

The normal reactions at the front wheel F_F =  7800 N + 2109.375 N = 9909.375 N

2) The least coefficient of friction, μ, is given as follows;

\mu = \dfrac{F}{R} =  \dfrac{11250}{18000} = 0.625

The least coefficient of friction, μ = 0.625.

A room has a width of 14.1 feet, a length of 15.5 feet, and a ceiling height of 12.0 ft. The average flow rate for this room's a
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Your question lacks the time required hence i will calculate the Average flow rate using a general concept and an assumed time value of 25 seconds  

ANSWER : 104.904 ft^3/sec

Explanation:

General concept : Average flow rate is the volume of fluid per unit time through an area

Hence the average flow rate of the air conditioning unit of this room

Volume of the room / time taken for the air to cycle the room = v / t

assuming the time taken = 25 seconds

volume of room = width * length * height

                          = 14.1 * 15.5 * 12 = 2622.6 ft^3

Average flow rate = V/ t

                              = 2622.6 / 25  = 104.904 ft^3/sec

What is the modulus of resilience for a tensile test specimen with a nearly linear elastic region if the yield strength is 500MP
ella [17]

Answer:

The modulus of resilience is 166.67 MPa

Explanation:

Modulus of resilience is given by yield strength ÷ strain

Yield strength = 500 MPa

Strain = 0.003

Modulus of resilience = 500 MPa ÷ 0.003 = 166.67 MPa

Air at a pressure of 6000 N/m^2 and a temperature of 300C flows with a velocity of 10 m/sec over a flat plate of length 0.5 m. E
White raven [17]

Answer:

Q=hA(T_{w}-T_{inf})=16.97*0.5(27-300)=-2316.4J

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the expression for the temperature film

T_{f}=\frac{T_{\inf}+T_{w}}{2}=\frac{300+27}{2}=163.5

Then, we have to compute the Reynolds number

Re=\frac{uL}{v}=\frac{10\frac{m}{s}*0.5m}{16.96*10^{-6}\rfac{m^{2}}{s}}=2.94*10^{5}

Re<5*10^{5}, hence, this case if about a laminar flow.

Then, we compute the Nusselt number

Nu_{x}=0.332(Re)^{\frac{1}{2}}(Pr)^{\frac{1}{3}}=0.332(2.94*10^{5})^{\frac{1}{2}}(0.699)^{\frac{1}{3}}=159.77

but we also now that

Nu_{x}=\frac{h_{x}L}{k}\\h_{x}=\frac{Nu_{x}k}{L}=\frac{159.77*26.56*10^{-3}}{0.5}=8.48\\

but the average heat transfer coefficient is h=2hx

h=2(8.48)=16.97W/m^{2}K

Finally we have that the heat transfer is

Q=hA(T_{w}-T_{inf})=16.97*0.5(27-300)=-2316.4J

In this solution we took values for water properties of

v=16.96*10^{-6}m^{2}s

Pr=0.699

k=26.56*10^{-3}W/mK

A=1*0.5m^{2}

I hope this is useful for you
