<span>51 degrees. Since we're ignoring friction, we have to have a banking angle such that the normal force is exactly perpendicular to the banked curve. Since this problem says "ignore friction", if the bank angle is too shallow, the bobsled would slide outwards if the banking angle is too shallow and would fall inwards if the banking angle is too steep. So we have to exactly match the calculated centripetal acceleration. The equation for centripetal acceleration is: F = mv^2/r I'll assume a mass of 1 kg to keep the math simple. Any mass could be used and the direction vectors would be the same except their magnitude would differ. So F = 1 kg * (35 m/s)^2/100 m F = 1225 kg*m^2/s^2 / 100 m F = 12.25 kg*m/s^2 The local gravitational acceleration is 9.8 m/s^2, so the sum of those vectors will have a length of sqrt(12.25^2 + 9.8^2) and an angle of atan(9.8/12.25) below the horizon. The magnitude of the vector doesn't matter, merely the angle which is: atan(9.8/12.25) = atan(0.8) = 38.65980825 degrees. The banking angle needs to be perpendicular to the force vectors. So 90 - 38.65980825 = 51.34019175 degrees. Rounding to 2 significant figures gives a bank angle of 51 degrees.</span>

Chapter 16, Problem 63. A person is standing in a room at 18 ◦C. The exposed surface area and skin temperature of the person are
Juliette [100K]

Answer:Q=248.011 W

Explanation:

Given

Temperature of Room T_{\infty }=18^{\circ}\approx 291 K

Area of Person A=1.7 m^2

Temperature of skin T=32^{\circ}\approx 305 K

Heat transfer coefficient h=5 W/m^2.k

Emissivity of the skin and clothes \epsilon =0.9

\Delta T=32-18=14^{\circ}

Total rate of heat transfer=heat Transfer due to Radiation +heat transfer through convection

Heat transfer due radiation Q_1=\epsilon \sigma A(T^4-T_{\infty }^4 )

where \sigma =stefan-boltzman\ constant

Q_1=0.9\times 5.687\times 10^{-8}\times 1.7\times (305^4-291^4)

Q_1=129.01 W

Heat Transfer due to convection is given by

Q_2=hA(\Delta T)

Q_2=5\times 1.7\times 14=119 W

Q=Q_1+Q_2

Q=129.01+119=248.011 W

The interior space of large box is kept at 30 C. The walls of the box are 3 m high and have a ‘sandwich’ construction consisting
White raven [17]

Answer:

\frac{\dot Q}{A} =20.129\ W.m^{-2}

T_1=27.58\ ^{\circ}C & T_2=2.41875\ ^{\circ}C

Explanation:

Given:

  • interior temperature of box, T_i=30^{\circ}C
  • height of the walls of box, h=3\ m
  • thickness of each layer of bi-layered plywood, x_p=1.25\ cm=0.0125\ m
  • thermal conductivity of plywood, k_p=0.104\ W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}
  • thickness of sandwiched Styrofoam, x_s=5\ cm=0.05\ m
  • thermal conductivity of Styrofoam, k_s=0.04\ W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}
  • exterior temperature, T_o=0^{\circ}C

<u>From the Fourier's law of conduction:</u>

\dot Q=\frac{dT}{(\frac{x}{kA}) }

\dot Q=\frac{dT}{R_{th} } ....................................(1)

<u>Now calculating the equivalent thermal resistance for conductivity using electrical analogy:</u>

R_{th}=R_p+R_s+R_p

R_{th}=\frac{x_p}{k_p.A}+\frac{x_s}{k_s.A}+\frac{x_p}{k_p.A}

R_{th}=\frac{1}{A} (\frac{x_p}{k_p}+\frac{x_s}{k_s}+\frac{x_p}{k_p})

R_{th}=\frac{1}{A} (\frac{0.0125}{0.104}+\frac{0.05}{0.04}+\frac{0.0125}{0.104})

R_{th}=\frac{1.4904}{A} .....................(2)

Putting the value from (2) into (1):

\dot Q=\frac{30-0}{\frac{1.4904}{A} }

\dot Q=\frac{30\ A}{1.4904}

\frac{\dot Q}{A} =20.129\ W.m^{-2} is the heat per unit area of the wall.

The heat flux remains constant because the area is constant.

<u>For plywood-Styrofoam interface from inside:</u>

\frac{\dot Q}{A} =k_p.\frac{T_i-T_1}{x_p}

20.129=0.104\times \frac{30-T_1}{0.0125}

T_1=27.58\ ^{\circ}C

&<u>For Styrofoam-plywood interface from inside:</u>

\frac{\dot Q}{A} =k_s.\frac{T_1-T_2}{x_s}

20.129=0.04\times \frac{27.58-T_2}{0.05}

T_2=2.41875\ ^{\circ}C

A 12.8-kg monkey hangs from a cord suspended from the ceiling of an elevator. The cord can withstand a tension of 156N and break
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

2.4 m/s^2

Downward

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of monkey=12.8 kg

Tension=156 N

We have to find the magnitude of the elevator's minimum acceleration.

T=m(g+a)

Where g=9.8 m/s^2

Substitute the values

156=12.8(a+9.8)

9.8+a=\frac{156}{12.8}=12.2

a=12.2-9.8=2.4 m/s^2

Hence, the acceleration =a=2.4 m/s^2

Direction of the elevator's minimum acceleration is downward because the elevator moves downwards.
