A spherical gas-storage tank with an inside diameter of 8.0 m is being constructed to store gas under an internal pressure of 1.

62 MPa. The tank will be constructed from steel that has a yield strength of 295 MPa. If a factor of safety of 3.0 with respect to the yield strength is required, determine the minimum wall thickness tmin required for the spherical tank.

Answer:

The minimum wall thickness Tmin required for the spherical tank is 65.90mm

Explanation:

Solution

Recall that,

Tmin = The minimum wall thickness =PD/2бp

where D = diameter of 8.0 m

Internal pressure = 1.62 MPa

Then

The yield strength = 295MPa/3.0 = 98.33

thus,

PD/2бp = 1.62 * 8000/ 2 *98.33

= 12960/196.66 = 65.90

Therefore the wall thickness Tmin required for the spherical tank is 65.90mm

When a current flows in an aluminum wire of diameter 2.91 mm 2.91 mm , the drift speed of the conduction electrons is 0.000191 m
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Number of electrons are flowing per second is 2.42 x 10¹⁹

Explanation:

The electric current flows through a wire is given by the relation :

I=envA   ....(1)

Here I is current, e is electronic charge, v is drift velocity of electrons and A is the Area of the wire.

But electric current is also define as rate of electrons passing through junction times their charge, i.e. ,

I=Ne      ....(2)

Here N is the rate of electrons passing through junction.

From equation (1) and (2).

eN = envA

N=nvA

But area of wire, A=\pi \frac{d^{2} }{4}

Here d is diameter of wire.

So, N = nv\pi \frac{d^{2} }{4}

Substitute 2.91 x 10⁻³ m for d, 0.000191 m/s for v and 6 x 10²⁸ m⁻³ for n in the above equation.

N = 6\times10^{28}\times 0.000191\times\pi \frac{(2.91\times10^{-3} )^{2} }{4}

N = 2.42 x 10¹⁹ s⁻¹

Puck B has twice the mass of puck A. Starting from rest, both pucks are pulled the same distance across frictionless ice by stri
gogolik [260]

Answer:

(a) 1 : 2

(b) same

Explanation:

Let the mass of puck A is m and the mass of puck B is 2 m.

initial speed for both the pucks is same as u and the distance is same for both is s.

let the tension is T for same.

The kinetic energy is given by

K = 0.5 mv^2

(a) As the speed is same, so the kinetic energy depends on the mass.

So, kinetic energy of A : Kinetic energy of B = m : 2m  = 1 : 2

(b) A the distance s same so the final velocities are also same.

How do you know that forces are balanced when static friction acts on an object?
lyudmila [28]
By looking at the acceleration of the object.
In fact, Netwon's second law states that the resultant of the forces acting on an object is equal to the product between the mass m of the object and its acceleration:
\sum F = ma

So, when static friction is acting on the object, if the object is still not moving we know that all the forces are balanced: in fact, since the object is stationary, its acceleration is zero, and so the resultant of the forces (left term in the formula) must be zero as well (i.e. the forces are balanced).

Zoey ran a total of 1000m. 20 seconds into her run she had traveled 100 meters. What was her speed at 100 meters?
leva [86]
Let's assume that Zoey ran at a constant speed. we can use the equation,
 d = st
where, d = distance, s = speed, and t = time taken.

By rearranging,
 s = d/t
Zoey had travelled 100 m in 20 seconds.
Hence, s = 100 m / 20 s = 5 m/s

therefore Zoey's speed at 100 m is 5 m/s
