An inclined plane has a small force applied over a large distance. Ramps, ladders and stairs are inclined planes. Both wedges and pulleys make work easier by changing the direction of the force.

An electrical heater is a form of sensible heating process, and heats 0.1m/s of air from 15°C and 80% RH to 50°C? The barometric

lawyer [7]

Answer:

The heater load =35 KJ/kg

Explanation:

Given that

At initial condition

Temperature= 15°C

RH=80%

At final condition

Temperature= 50°C

We know that in sensible heating process humidity ratio remain constant.

Now from chart

At temperature= 15°C and RH=80%

$h_1=38 \frac{KJ}{kg},v=0.8 \frac{m^3}{kg}$

At temperature= 50°C

$h_2=73 \frac{KJ}{kg}$

$So\ the\ heater\ load =h_2-h_1$

The heater load = 73 - 38 KJ/kg

The heater load =35 KJ/kg

The seers were of the opinion that_____ . *

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

✔️a healthy mind resides in a healthy body.

Explanation:

The seers were of the opinion that "a healthy mind resides in a healthy body."

Just like the English translation of a famous quotation from Thales, pre-Socratic Greek philosopher puts it "a sound mind in a sound body"; which tries to demonstrate the close connections that exists in bodily well-being and one's ability to enjoy life.

The seers were actually of the opinion that a healthy mind resides in a healthy body. It implies that there is connection between the body and the mind. When the body catches an illness, the mind and other parts of the body are affected. When our minds are not healthy, it affects the effective functioning of the body.

So, a healthy mind will definitely be found in a healthy body.

A tool chest has 650 N weight that acts through the midpoint of the chest. The chest is supported by feet at A and rollers at B.

erica [24]

Answer:

the value of horizontal force P is 170.625 N

the value of horizontal force at P = 227.5 N is that the block moves to right and this motion is due to sliding.

Explanation:

The first diagram attached below shows the free body diagram of the tool chest when it is sliding.

Let start out by calculating the friction force

$F_f= \mu N_2$

where :

$F_f =$ friction force

$\mu$ = coefficient of friction

$N_2$ = normal friction

Given that:

$\mu$ = 0.3

$F_f =$ 0.3 $N_2$

Using the equation of equilibrium along horizontal direction.

$\sum f_x = 0$

P - $F_f =$ 0

P = 0.3 $N_2$ ----- Equation (1)

To determine the moment about point B ; we have the expression

$\sum M_B = 0$

0 = $N_2*70-W*35-P*100$

where;

P = horizontal force

$N_2$ = normal force at support A

W = self- weight of tool chest

Replacing W = 650 N

0 = $N_2*70-650*35-100*P$

$P = \frac{70 N_2-22750}{100} ----- equation (2)$

Replacing $\frac{70 N_2-22750}{100}$ for P in equation (1)

$\frac{70N_2 -22750}{100} =0.3 N_2$

$N_2 = \frac{22750}{40}$ $N_2 = 568.75 \ N$

Plugging the value of $N_2 = 568.75 \ N$ in equation (2)

$P = \frac{70(568.75)-22750}{100} \\ \\ P = \frac{39812.5-22750}{100} \\ \\ P = \frac{17062.5}{100}$

P =170.625 N

Thus; the value of horizontal force P is 170.625 N

b) From the second diagram attached the free body diagram; the free body diagram of the tool chest when it is tipping about point A is also shown below:

Taking the moments about point A:

$\sum M_A = 0$

-(P × 100)+ (W×35) = 0

P = $\frac{W*35}{100}$

Replacing 650 N for W

$P = \frac{650*35}{100}$

P = 227.5 N

Thus; the value of horizontal force P, when the tool chest tipping about point A is 227.5 N

We conclude that the motion will be impending for the lowest value when P = 170.625 N and when P= 227.5 N

However; the value of horizontal force at P = 227.5 N is that the block moves to right and this motion is due to sliding.
