A wheel rotates without friction about a stationary horizontal axis at the center of the wheel. A constant tangential force equa

l to 80 N is applied to the rim of the wheel. The wheel has radius 0.12 m. Starting from rest, the wheel has an angular velocity of 1.2 rad/s after 2 s. What is the rotational inertia of the wheel?

Answer:

I = 16 kg*m²

Explanation:

Newton's second law for rotation

τ = I * α   Formula  (1)

where:

τ : It is the moment applied to the body.  (Nxm)

I :  it is the moment of inertia of the body with respect to the axis of rotation (kg*m²)

α : It is angular acceleration. (rad/s²)

Kinematics of the wheel

Equation of circular motion uniformly accelerated :  

ωf = ω₀+ α*t  Formula (2)

Where:  

α : Angular acceleration (rad/s²)  

ω₀ : Initial angular speed ( rad/s)  

ωf : Final angular speed ( rad

t : time interval (rad)

Data  

ω₀ = 0

ωf = 1.2 rad/s

t = 2 s

Angular acceleration of the wheel  

We replace data in the formula (2):  

ωf = ω₀+ α*t

1.2= 0+ α*(2)

α*(2) = 1.2

α = 1.2 / 2

α = 0.6 rad/s²

Magnitude of the net torque (τ )

τ = F *R

Where:

F  = tangential force (N)

R  = radio (m)

τ = 80 N *0.12 m

τ = 9.6 N *m

Rotational inertia of the wheel

We replace data in the formula (1):

τ = I * α

9.6 = I *(0.6 )

I = 9.6 / (0.6 )

I = 16 kg*m²

Consider a heat pump that operates on the reversed Carnot cycle with R-134a as the working fluid executed under the saturation d
Schach [20]

Answer:

Work out = 28.27 kJ/kg

Explanation:

For R-134a, from the saturated tables at 800 kPa, we get

h_{fg} = 171.82 kJ/kg

Therefore, at saturation pressure 140 kPa, saturation temperature is

T_{L} = -18.77°C = 254.23 K

At saturation pressure  800 kPa, the saturation temperature is

T_{H} = 31.31°C = 304.31 K

Now heat rejected will be same as enthalpy during vaporization since heat is rejected from saturated vapour state to saturated liquid state.

Thus, q_{reject} = h_{fg} = 171.82 kJ/kg

We know COP of heat pump

COP = \frac{T_{H}}{T_{H}-T_{L}}

        = \frac{304.31}{304.31-254.23}

         = 6.076

Therefore, Work out put, W = \frac{q_{reject}}{COP}

                                              = 171.82 / 6.076

                                              = 28.27 kJ/kg

A top is a toy that is made to spin on its pointed end by pulling on a string wrapped around the body of the top. The string has
AlladinOne [14]

Given Information:

Angular displacement = θ = 51 cm = 0.51  m

Radius = 1.8 cm = 0.018 m

Initial angular velocity = ω₁ = 0 m/s

Angular acceleration = α = 10 rad/s ²

Required Information:

Final angular velocity = ω₂ = ?

Answer:

Final angular velocity = ω₂ = 21.6 rad/s

Explanation:

We know from the equations of kinematics,

ω₂² = ω₁² + 2αθ

Where ω₁ is the initial angular velocity that is zero since the toy was initially at rest, α is angular acceleration and θ is angular displacement.

ω₂² = (0)² + 2αθ

ω₂² = 2αθ

ω₂ = √(2αθ)

We know that the relation between angular displacement and arc length is given by

s = rθ

θ = s/r

θ = 0.51/0.018

θ = 23.33 radians

finally, final angular velocity is

ω₂ = √(2αθ)

ω₂ = √(2*10*23.33)

ω₂ = 21.6 rad/s

Therefore, the top will be rotating at 21.6 rad/s when the string is completely unwound.

a furnace supplies 28kW of thermal power at 300C to an engine and exhausts waste energy at 20C. At the very best, how much work
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

The amount of work we could expect to get out of the system per second = 28,000J/s

Explanation:

Given the power supplied to the system as  28kW;

Energy = power / time

At very best, the amount of work we could expect to get out of the system per second = 28,000 W / 1 second =  28,000J/s

Therefore, for a a furnace which supplies 28kW of thermal power at 300C to an engine and exhausts waste energy at 20C.

At the very best, the amount of work we could expect to get out of the system per second = 28,000J/s

Korolek [52]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 43%.

Explanation: The increase in CO2 between these two suggested periods is approximately 43%. Even though it is a natural process that the CO2 levels vary in the atmosphere, still this is not the same case nowadays. Nowadays, or rather in the past few decades, apart from the natural increase of CO2 in the atmosphere, it has seen a much more increased levels because of the human activity. The industrial facilities and the vehicles, the cutting of the forests and burning the wood (there's both release of CO2 from the burning of the trees and loss of natural accumulator of the CO2), are just some of the more important human activities that contribute to a significant rise in the CO2 levels.
