Each of the space shuttle's main engines is fed liquid hydrogen bya high-pressure pump. Turbine blades inside the pump rotateat

617 rev/s. A point on one of the blades traces out acircle with a radius of 0.020m as the blade rotates. a) What is themagnitude of the centripetal acceleration that the blade mustsustain at this point? b) Express this acceleration as amultiple of g = 9.80m/s2 .
answer: 3.0*105m/s2

Answer:

a) a= \frac{4 \pi^2 (0.02 m)^2}{0.00162 s}=9.74 \frac{m}{s^2}

b) k = \frac{9.8}{9.74}=1.006

Explanation:

Part a

For this case we can begin finding the period like this:

T= \frac{1}{w} =\frac{1}{617 rad/s}=0.00162 s

Then we know that the centripetal acceleration is given by:

a= \frac{v^2}{r}

And the velocity is given by:

v=\frac{2\pi r}{T}

If we replace this into the acceleration we got:

a = \frac{(\frac{2\pi r}{T})^2}{r}= \frac{4 \pi^2 r}{T^2}

And we can replace the values and we got:

a= \frac{4 \pi^2 (0.02 m)^2}{0.00162 s}=9.74 \frac{m}{s^2}

Part b

For this case we want to find a value of k such that:

a= k 9.8

Where a = 9.74, so then we can solve for k like this:

k = \frac{9.8}{9.74}=1.006

VARVARA [1.3K]

The distance between object P1 and its image formed is determined as 36 m.

<h3>Distance of the image</h3>

The distance of the image formed by object P1 is calculated as follows;

In a plane mirror; object distance = image distance

image distance of P1 = 18 m

distance between object and image = 18m + 18 m = 36 m

Thus, the distance between object P1 and its image formed is determined as 36 m.

Find the wavelength of the balmer series spectral line corresponding to n = 15.
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

371.2 mm

Explanation:

The Balmer series of spectral lines is obtained from the formula

1/λ = R(1/2² -1/n²) where λ = wavelength, R = Rydberg's constant = 1.097 × 10⁷ m⁻¹

when n = 15

1/λ = 1.097 × 10⁷ m⁻¹(1/2² -1/15²)

    = 1.097 × 10⁷ m⁻¹(1/4 -1/225)

    = 1.097 × 10⁷ m⁻¹(0.25 - 0.0044)

    = 1.097 × 10⁷ m⁻¹ 0.245556

    = 2.693 10⁶ m⁻¹

So,

λ  = 1/2.693 10⁶ m⁻¹

    = 0.3712 10⁻⁶ m

    = 371.2 mm
