A string under a tension of 50.4 N is used to whirl a rock in a horizontal circle of radius 2.51 m at a speed of 21.1 m/s. The s

Leokris [45]

Answer:

619.8 N

Explanation:

The tension in the string provides the centripetal force that keeps the rock in circular motion, so we can write:

$T=m\frac{v^2}{r}$

where

T is the tension

m is the mass of the rock

v is the speed

r is the radius of the circular path

At the beginning,

T = 50.4 N

v = 21.1 m/s

r = 2.51 m

So we can use the equation to find the mass of the rock:

$m=\frac{Tr}{v^2}=\frac{(50.4)(2.51)}{21.1^2}=0.284 kg$

Later, the radius of the string is decreased to

r' = 1.22 m

While the speed is increased to

v' = 51.6 m/s

Substituting these new data into the equation, we find the tension at which the string breaks:

$T'=m\frac{v'^2}{r'}=(0.284)\frac{(51.6)^2}{1.22}=619.8 N$

Calculate a rate of cooling down of air from 80 C to 5C Show calculation. Give an answer in cubic meters per minute and cfm.

antoniya [11.8K]

Explanation:

Given that,

Rate of cooling of air

Initial temperature= 80°C

Final temperature = 5°C

We need to calculate

Using newton's law of cooling

$\dfrac{dT}{dt}=c(T-T_{0})$

$\dfrac{dT}{dt}=c(\dfrac{T_{1}+T_{2}}{2}-T_{0})$

Where, $dT=T_{1}-T_{2}$

Here, $T =\dfrac{T_{1}+T_{2}}{2}$

$T_{0}$ = 25°C (surrounding temperature)

dt = 1 minute

$\dfrac{dT}{dt}=c(\dfrac{T_{1}+T_{2}}{2}-T_{0})$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{80-5}{1}=c(\dfrac{85}{2}-25)$

$c=\dfrac{75}{17.5}$

$c=4.285\ cubic\ meter/minute$

Hence, This is the required answer.

How are scientists monitoring and studying the effects on the herring?

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:In the decades prior to 1993 there was a robust Pacific herring population in Prince William Sound (PWS). Not only are these forage fish a key link in the complex food web of PWS, but they supported a lucrative early-season commercial fishery that brought the communities of the Sound to life each spring. By 1994, that fishery was closed and only briefly reopened for two years in the late 1990s. The current, approximately 10,000-ton biomass, is tiny compared to the peak value of 130,000 tons or the long-term average prior to the collapse of around 65,000 ton.
