Answer: The force constant k is 10600 kg/s^2
Step by step:
Use the law of energy conservation. When the elevator hits the spring, it has a certain kinetic and a potential energy. When the elevator reaches the point of still stand the kinetic and potential energies have been transformed to work performed by the elevator in the form of friction (brake clamp) and loading the spring.
Let us define the vertical height axis as having two points: h=2m at the point of elevator hitting the spring, and h=0m at the point of stopping.
The total energy at the point h=2m is:
The total energy at the point h=0m is:
The two Energy values are to be equal (by law of energy conservation), which allows us to determine the only unknown, namely the force constant k:
Answer:
The shear stress at a distance 0.3-in away from the pipe wall is 0.06012lb/ft²
The shear stress at a distance 0.5-in away from the pipe wall is 0
Explanation:
Given;
pressure drop per unit length of pipe = 0.6 psi/ft
length of the pipe = 12 feet
diameter of the pipe = 1 -in
Pressure drop per unit length in a circular pipe is given as;
make shear stress (τ) the subject of the formula
Where;
τ is the shear stress on the pipe wall.
ΔP is the pressure drop
L is the length of the pipe
r is the distance from the pipe wall
Part (a) shear stress at a distance of 0.3-in away from the pipe wall
Radius of the pipe = 0.5 -in
r = 0.5 - 0.3 = 0.2-in = 0.0167 ft
ΔP = 0.6 psi/ft
ΔP, in lb/ft² = 0.6 x 144 = 86.4 lb/ft²
Part (b) shear stress at a distance of 0.5-in away from the pipe wall
r = 0.5 - 0.5 = 0
