A solid sphere of mass 4.0 kg and radius 0.12 m starts from rest at the top of a ramp inclined 15°, and rolls to the bottom. The

upper end of the ramp is 1.2 m higher than the lower end. What is the linear speed of the sphere when it reaches the bottom of the ramp

Answer:

v = 4.1 m/s

Explanation:

As per mechanical energy conservation law we can say that initial total gravitational potential energy of the sphere is equal to final kinetic energy of rolling

so we will say

mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2

now for pure rolling condition we know that

v = R\omega

so we will have

mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{5}mR^2)(\frac{v^2}{R^2})

mgh = \frac{7}{10}mv^2

now we will have

v^2 = \sqrt{\frac{10}{7}gh}

v^2 = \sqrt{\frac{10}{7}(9.8)(1.2)}

v = 4.1 m/s

Steam is leaving a pressure cooker whose operating pressure is 20 psia. It is observed that the amount of liquid in the cooker h
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

a) 34.05ft/s

b).1156.2BTU/lbm

c) 2.04BTU/s

Explanation:

Amount of liquid that has evaporated, m = ◇Vliq/ Vf

We replace the values to make conversion

m = (0.6gal/ 0.01683ft^3/lbm) × (0.13368ft^3/1gal)

m = 4.755lb

The mass flow rate of exit steam is given by:

m' = m/◇t

We replace values to make conversion

m' =( 4.766lb/45min) = 0.1059lb/min × 1min/60s

m' = 0.001765lb/s

The exit velocity V = m'/pA = m'Vg/A

We replace values to make conversion

V =[ (0.001765lbm/s)(20.093ft^3/lbm) /(0.15 in^2)]× (144in^2/1ft^2)

V = 34.05ft/s

b) The total and flow energies per unit mass is given by:

Eflow= Pv = h - u

We replace the values to make conversion

Eflow = 1156.2 - 1081.8

Eflow = 74.4BTU/lbm

Therefore theta= h + ke + pe

Theta approximately =h = 1156.2BTU/lbs

c) The rate at which energy is leaving the cooler by steam is given by:

Emass = m'theta

Emass = (0.001765)×(1156.2)

Emass = 2.04BTU/s

Suppose you are standing on a scale in an elevator that is accelerating upward. Will the scale read your weight as larger for sm
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

following are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

When I stand at such a scale in an elevated that's already rising upwards, its scale would appear to also be 0 because of free fall and would often reveal that weight whenever the lift is stable.  

In this, the free fall is also known as the object, that is influenced exclusively by gravity, and an object operating only through the influence of gravity is said to be in a free-fall state.
