The 15-kg block A slides on the surface for which µk = 0.3. The block has a velocity v = 10 m/s when it is s = 4 m from the 10-k

g block B. If the unstrectched spring has a stiffness k = 1000 N/m, determine the maximum compression of the spring due to the collision. Assume the collision is perfectly plastic. Take e=0.6 .

Answer:

s_max = 0.8394m

Explanation:

From equilibrium of block, N = W = mg

Frictional force = μ_k•N = μ_k•mg

Since μ_k = 0.3,then F = 0.3mg

To determine the velocity of Block A just before collision, let's apply the principle of work and energy;

T1 + ΣU_1-2 = T2

So, (1/2)m_a•(v_ao)² - F•s =(1/2)m_a•(v_a1)²

Plugging in the relevant values to get ;

(1/2)•(15)•(10)² - (0.3•15•9.81•4) =(1/2)(15)•(v_a1)²

750 - 176.58 = 7.5(v_a1)²

v_a1 = 8.744 m/s

Using law of conservation of momentum;

Σ(m1v1) = Σ(m2v2)

Thus,

m_a•v_a1 + m_b•v_b1 = m_a•v_a2 + m_b•v_b2

Thus;

15(8.744) + 10(0) = 15(v_a2) + 10(v_b2)

Divide through by 5;

3(8.744) + 2(0) = 3(v_a2) + 2(v_b2)

Thus,

3(v_a2) + 2(v_b2) = 26.232 - - - (eq1)

Coefficient of restitution has a formula;

e = (v_b2 - v_a2)/(v_a1 - v_b1)

From the question, e = 0.6.

Thus;

0.6 = (v_b2 - v_a2)/(8.744 - 0)

0.6 x 8.744 = (v_b2 - v_a2)

(v_b2 - v_a2) = 5.246 - - - (eq2)

Solving eq(1) and 2 simultaneously, we have;

v_b2 = 8.394 m/s

v_a2 = 3.148 m/s

Now, to find maximum compression, let's apply conservation of energy on block B;

T1 + V1 = T2 + V2

Thus,

(1/2)m_b•(v_b2)² + (1/2)k(s_1)² = (1/2)m_b•(v_b'2)² + (1/2)k(s_max)²

(1/2)10•(8.394)² + (1/2)1000(0)² = (1/2)10•(0)² + (1/2)(1000)(s_max)²

500(s_max)² = 352.29618

(s_max)² = 352.29618/500

(s_max)² = 0.7046

s_max = 0.8394m

Write a method printShampooInstructions(), with int parameter numCycles, and void return type. If numCycles is less than 1, prin
kirill [66]

Answer:

// The method is defined with a void return type

// It takes a parameter of integer called numCycles

// It is declared static so that it can be called from a static method

public static void printShampooInstructions(int numCycles){

// if numCycles is less than 1, it display "Too few"

   if (numCycles < 1){

       System.out.println("Too few.");

   }

// else if numCycles is less than 1, it display "Too many"

    else if (numCycles > 4){

       System.out.println("Too many.");

   }

// else it uses for loop to print the number of times to display

// Lather and rinse

  else {

       for(int i = 1; i <= numCycles; i++){

           System.out.println(i + ": Lather and rinse.");

       }

       System.out.println("Done");

       

   }

}

Explanation:

The code snippet is written in Java. The method is declared static so that it can be called from another static method. It has a return type of void. It takes an integer as parameter.

It display "Too few" if the passed integer is less than 1. Or it display "Too much" if the passed integer is more than 4. Else it uses for loop to display "Lather and rinse" based on the passed integer.

The pressure gage on a 2.5-m^3 oxygen tank reads 500 kPa. Determine the amount of oxygen in the tank if the temperature is 28°C
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

19063.6051 g

Explanation:

Pressure = Atmospheric pressure + Gauge Pressure

Atmospheric pressure = 97 kPa

Gauge pressure = 500 kPa

Total pressure = 500 + 97 kPa = 597 kPa

Also, P (kPa) = 1/101.325  P(atm)

Pressure = 5.89193 atm

Volume = 2.5 m³ = 2500 L ( As m³ = 1000 L)

Temperature = 28 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T₁ = (28.2 + 273.15) K = 301.15 K  

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

5.89193 atm × 2500 L = n × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 301.15 K  

⇒n = 595.76 moles

Molar mass of oxygen gas = 31.9988 g/mol

Mass = Moles * Molar mass = 595.76 * 31.9988 g = 19063.6051 g

How do you determine when a truss will fail?<br> (Yield Stress)
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

If a truss buckles or overturns, it is usually because of the failure of an adjacent truss or its bracing. A steel truss in a fire may buckle and overturn because of expansion or weakening from the heat. Most truss failures are the result of broken connections. Photo 1 shows a set of parallel-chord wood trusses supporting a plywood floor deck.
