A hydrogen-filled balloon to be used in high altitude atmosphere studies will eventually be 100 ft in diameter. At 150,000 ft, t

he pressure is 0.14 lb/in2 and the temperature is - 67°F. Assume the balloon is spherical in shape. What is the diameter of the hydrogen balloon at the ground at 14.7 lb/in2 and 68°F

Answer:

The answer is 11.7 ft

Explanation:

You can use the combined gas law from Boyle's law, Charles's law, and Gay-Lussac's Law. Only because hydrogen behaves like an ideal gas for this conditions.

\frac{p_1 V_1}{T_1} = \frac{p_2 V_2}{T_2}

where the subscripts denote the pressure "p", volume "V" and the temperature "T" (in Kelvin) at two different times. Let's consider t_1 as the balloom at 150,000 ft so

p_1 = 0.14 \ lb/in^2

V_1 = \frac{4}{3} \pi R_1^3 = 523598.77 \ ft^3

and T_1 = -67^\circ F = 218.15\ K.

Then, t_2 is the moment when the balloon is on the ground.

p_2 = 14.7 \ lb/in^2 and  T_2 = 68^\circ F = 293.15\ K.

From the first equation,

V_2 = \frac{p_1 V_1 T_2}{T_1 p_2}, then

V_2 = 6701.07 ft^3 and the radius would be  

R_2 = \sqrt[3]{\frac{3 V_2}{4 \pi}} = 11.7 \ ft.

The uniform slender rod has a mass m.
Nikolay [14]

Answer: 3/2mg

Explanation:

Express the moment equation about point B

MB = (M K)B

-mg cosθ (L/6) = m[α(L/6)](L/6) – (1/12mL^2 )α

α = 3g/2L cosθ

express the force equation along n and t axes.

Ft = m (aG)t

mg cosθ – Bt = m [(3g/2L cos) (L/6)]

Bt = ¾ mg cosθ

Fn = m (aG)n

Bn -mgsinθ = m[ω^2 (L/6)]

Bn =1/6 mω^2 L + mgsinθ

Calculate the angular velocity of the rod

ω = √(3g/L sinθ)

when θ = 90°, calculate the values of Bt and Bn

Bt =3/4 mg cos90°

= 0

Bn =1/6m (3g/L)(L) + mg sin (9o°)

= 3/2mg

Hence, the reactive force at A is,

FA = √(02 +(3/2mg)^2

= 3/2 mg

The magnitude of the reactive force exerted on it by pin B when θ = 90° is 3/2mg

The ingredient weights for making 1 yd (cyd) of concrete by assuming aggregates in SSD state are given below. The volume of air
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ans) Given batch weight of each component :

Cement = 700 lb

Water = 315 lb

Coarse aggregate = 1575 lb

Fine aggregate = 1100 lb

Part 1) Amount of water = 328.5 lb

Amount of water is needed to be increased if the aggregates has absorption capacity, To maintain constant water cement ratio, the mixing water is increased because some of the water is absorbed by aggregates.

Amount of water absorbed = 328.5 lb - 315 lb = 13.5 lb

Total amount of aggregates = 1575 + 1100 = 2675 lb

=> % Absorption capacity = 13.5 x 100 / 2675 = 0.5 %

Hence, new amount of Coarse aggregate = (1 - 0.005) x 1575 lb = 1567.125 lb

New amount of fine aggregate = (1 - 0.005) x 1100 = 1094.5 lb

Since, water cement ratio is maintained constant , amount of cement remains unchanged

=> Volume of water = 328.5 / 62.4 = 5.26 ft3

=> Volume of cement = 700 / (3.15 x 62.4) = 3.56 ft3

=> Volume of coarse aggregate = 1567.125 / (2.4 x 62.4) = 10.46 ft3

=> Volume of fine aggregate = 1100 / (2.4 x 62.4) = 7.34 ft3

Volume of air = 2% = 0.02 x 27 = 0.54 ft3

Total concrete volume = 5.26 + 3.56 + 10.46 + 7.34 + 0.54 \approx 27 ft3 = 1 yd3

Hence, calculated amount of each component is correct

Part 2) We know, minus sign indicated that the aggregate will absorb some moisture from concrete, hence mixing water amount needed to be corrected .

=> Amount of water absorbed by coarse aggregate = 0.01 x 1567.125 lb = 15.67 lb

=> Amount of water absorbed by fine aggregate = 0.02 x 1094.50 lb = 21.89 lb

Total amount of water absorbed = 15.67 + 21.89 = 37.56 lb

To maintain same water cement ratio, amount of mixing water is needed to be increased

=> Corrected amount of mixing water = 328.5 lb + 37.56 lb = 366 lb

=> Corrected amount of coarse aggregate = (1 - 0.01) x 1567.125 = 1551.45 lb

=> Corrected amount of fine aggregate = (1 - 0.02) x 1094.5 = 1072.6 lb

Part 3) We know,

Unit weight = Sum of weight of each material / Total volume

=> Sum of weight = 366 + 700 + 1551.45 + 1072.6 = 3690.05 lb

Total volume = 1 yd3 or 27 ft3

=> Expected Unit Weight = 3690.05 lb / 27 ft3 = 136.67 lb/ft3

Also, Concrete Yield = Weight of all components / Unit weight of concrete

=> Yield = 3690.05 / 136.67 = 27 ft3 or 1 yd3

The output voltage of a power supply is normally distributed with mean 12 V and standard deviation 0.11 V. If the upper and lowe
podryga [215]

Answer:

82.62%

Explanation:

The z score is a score used in statistics to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. The z score is given by:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\\\where\ x=raw\ score,\mu=mean\ and\ \sigma=standard\ deviation.\\\\Given \ that\ \mu=12V, \sigma=0.11V.\\\\For\ x11.85V:\\\\z=\frac{11.85-12}{0.11} =-1.36\\\\

From the normal distribution table, P(11.85 < x < 12.15) = P(-1.36 < z < 1.36) = P(z < 1.36) - P(z < -1.36) = 0.9131-0.0869 = 0.8262 = 82.62%
