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.

yan [13]

Answer:

b. 1232.08 km/hr

c. 1.02 kn

Explanation:

a) For dynamic similar conditions, the non-dimensional terms R/ρ V2 L2 and ρVL/ μ should be same for both prototype and its model. For these non-dimensional terms , R is drag force, V is velocity in m/s, μ is dynamic viscosity, ρ is density and L is length parameter.

See attachment for the remaining.

A steel bar 100 mm (4.0 in.) long and having a square cross section 20 mm (0.8 in.) on an edge is pulled intension with a load o
grigory [225]

Answer:

The elastic modulus of the steel is 139062.5 N/in^2

Explanation:

Elastic modulus = stress ÷ strain

Load = 89,000 N

Area of square cross section of the steel bar = (0.8 in)^2 = 0.64 in^2

Stress = load/area = 89,000/0.64 = 139.0625 N/in^2

Length of steel bar = 4 in

Extension = 4×10^-3 in

Strain = extension/length = 4×10^-3/4 = 1×10^-3

Elastic modulus = 139.0625 N/in^2 ÷ 1×10^-3 = 139062.5 N/in^2

In an ideal gas, specific enthalpy is a function of i. Entropy ii. Temperature iii, Pressure iv. Mass
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

Temperature

Explanation:

In an ideal gas the specific enthalpy  is exclusively a function of Temperature only this can be also written as h = h(T)  

A gas is said be ideal gas if obeys PV= nRT law

And in a ideal gas both internal energy and specific enthalpy are a function of Temperature only. Therefore the constant volume and constant pressure specific heats Cv and Cp are also function of temperature only.
