Answer: 0.04m

Explanation:

Mass of the block (m) = 2kg

density (p) = 5000kg/m3

Volume (v) = ?

Recall that density is obtained by dividing mass by volume. i.e density = mass / volume

p = m / v

Make v the subject formula

v = m / p

So, v = 2kg / 5000kg/m3

v = 0.0004 m3

Now given that the volume of the rectangular metal bar is 0.0004m3, find its height:

length of metal bar (l) = 20cm

convert length in centimeters to meters

(If 100cm = 1m

20cm = 20/100 = 0.2m)

width of bar (w) = 5cm

convert width in centimeters to meters

(If 100cm = 1m

5cm = 5/100 = 0.05m)

height (h) = ?

Volume of metal bar = l x w x h

0.0004 m3 = 0.2m x 0.05m x h

0.0004 m3 = 0.2m x 0.05m x h

0.0004 m3 = 0.01m² x h

h = 0.0004 m3 / 0.01m²

h = 0.04m

Thus, the height of the rectangular metal bar is 0.04 meters

Question:<em> </em><em>Find, separately, them mass of the balloon and the basket (incidentally, most of the balloon's mass is air)</em>

Answer:

The mass of the balloon is 2295 kg, and the mass of the basket is 301 kg.

Explanation:

Let us call the mass of the balloon $m_1$ and the mass of the basket $m_2$ , then according to newton's second law:

$(1). \:F = (m_1+m_2)a$ ,

where $a =0.265m/s^2$ is the upward acceleration, and $F = 688N$ is the net propelling force (counts the gravitational force).

Also, the tension $T$ in the rope is 79.8 N more than the basket's weight; therefore,

$(2). \:T = m_2g+79.8$

and this tension must equal

$T -m_2g =m_2a$

$(3). \:T = m_2g +m_2a$

Combining equations (2) and (3) we get:

$m_2a = 79.8$

since $a =0.265m/s^2$ , we have

$\boxed{m_2 = 301.13kg}$

Putting this into equation (1) and substituting the numerical values of $F$ and $a$ , we get:

$688N = (m_1+301.13kg)(0.265m/s^2)$

$\boxed{m_1 = 2295 kg}$

Thus, the mass of the balloon and the basket is 2295 kg and 301 kg respectively.

An air-standard Diesel cycle has a compression ratio of 16 and a cutoff ratio of 2. At the beginning of the compression process,

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

$a.T_3=1723.8kPa\\b.n=0.563\\c.MEP=674.95kPa$

Explanation:

a. Internal energy and the relative specific volume at $s_1$ are determined from A-17: $u_1=214.07kJ/kg, \ \alpha_r_1=621.2$ .

The relative specific volume at $s_2$ is calculated from the compression ratio:

$\alpha_r_2=\frac{\alpha_r_1}{r}\\=\frac{621.2}{16}\\=38.825$

#from this, the temperature and enthalpy at state 2, $s_2$ can be determined using interpolations $T_2=862K$ and $h_2=890.9kJ/kg$ . The specific volume at $s_1$ can then be determined as:

$\alpha_1=\frac{RT_1}{P_1}\\\\=\frac{0.287\times 300}{95} m^3/kg\\0.906316m^3/kg$

Specific volume, $s_2$ :

$\alpha_2=\frac{\alpha_1}{r}\\=\frac{0.906316}{16}m^3/kg\\=0.05664m^3/kg$

The pressures at $s_2 \ and\ s_3$ is:

$P_2=P_3=\frac{RT_2}{\alpha_2}\\\\=\frac{0.287\times862}{0.05664}\\=4367.06kPa$

.The thermal efficiency=> maximum temperature at $s_3$ can be obtained from the expansion work at constant pressure during $s_2-s_3$

$\bigtriangleup \omega_2_-_3=P(\alpha_3-\alpha_2)\\R(T_3-T_2)=P\alpha(r_c-1)\\T_3=T_2+\frac{P\alpha_2}{R}(r_c-1)\\\\=(862+\frac{4367\times 0.05664}{0.287}(2-1))K\\=1723.84K$

b.Relative SV and enthalpy at $s_3$ are obtained for the given temperature with interpolation with data from A-17 : $a_r_3=4.553 \ and\ h_3=1909.62kJ/kg$

Relative SV at $s_4$ is

$a_r_4=\frac{r}{r_c}\alpha _r_3$

= $=\frac{16}{2}\times4.533\\=36.424$

Thermal efficiency occurs when the heat loss is equal to the internal energy decrease and heat gain equal to enthalpy increase;

$n=1-\frac{q_o}{q_i}\\=1-\frac{u_4-u_1}{h_3-h_2}\\=1-\frac{65903-214.07}{1909.62-890.9}\\=0.563$

Hence, the thermal efficiency is 0.563

c. The mean relative pressure is calculated from its standard definition:

$MEP=\frac{\omega}{\alpa_1-\alpa_2}\\=\frac{q_i-q_o}{\alpha_1(1-1/r)}\\=\frac{1909.62-890.9-(65903-214.7)}{0.90632(1-1/16)}\\=674.95kPa$

Hence, the mean effective relative pressure is 674.95kPa

The stoplights on a street are designed to keep traﬃc moving at 26 mi/h. the average length of a street block between traﬃc ligh

bonufazy [111]

We use the formula,

$v = \frac{d}{t}$ .

Here, v is velocity and its value given 26 mi/h ( in m/s, $\frac{26 \times 1.609 \times 10^{3} m}{60 \times 60 s} =11.62 \ m/s$ ) and d is distance and its value is given 80 m.

Substituting these values in above formula we get,

$t = \frac{80 m}{11.62m/s } = 6.88 \ s$

Thus, the time delay between green lights on successive blocks to keep the traﬃc moving continuously is 6.88 s

The ball has 7.35 joules of potential energy at position B. At position A, all of the energy changes to kinetic energy. The velo

Lina20 [59]

I assume that the ball is stationary (v=0) at point B, so its total energy is just potential energy, and it is equal to 7.35 J.
At point A, all this energy has converted into kinetic energy, which is:
$K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2$
And since K=7.35 J, we can find the velocity, v:
$v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 7.35 J}{1.5 kg} }=3.1 m/s$
