Mashcka [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

When the central shaft rotates , the seat along with passenger also rotates . Their rotation requires a centripetal force of mw²R where m is mass of the passenger and w is the angular velocity and R is radius of the circle in which the passenger rotates.

This force is provided by a component of T , the tension in the rope from which the passenger hangs . If θ be the angle the rope makes with horizontal ,

T cos θ will provide the centripetal force . So

Tcosθ = mw²R

Tsinθ component will balance the weight .

Tsinθ = mg

Dividing the two equation

Tanθ = $\frac{g}{\omega^2R}$

Hence for a given w , θ depends upon g or weight .

klio [65]

Answer:

The boiling point temperature of this substance when its pressure is 60 psia is 480.275 R

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Using the Clapeyron equation

$(\frac{dP}{dT} )_{sat } = \frac{h_{fg}}{Tv_{fg}}$

$(\frac{dP}{dT} )_{sat } = \frac{\frac{H_{fg}}{m} }{T\frac{V_{fg}}{m} }$

where $h_{fg$ is the change in enthalpy of saturated vapor to saturated liquid ( 250 Btu

T is the temperature ( 15 + 460 )R

m is the mass of water ( 0.5 Ibm )

$V_{fg$ is specific volume ( 1.5 ft³ )

we substitute

$(\frac{dP}{dT} )_{sat } =( \frac{250Btu\frac{778Ibf-ft}{Btu} }{0.5})$ / $( (15+460)\frac{1.5}{0.5})$

$(\frac{dP}{dT} )_{sat } =$ 272.98 Ibf-ft²/R

Now,

$(\frac{dP}{dT} )_{sat } =$ $(\frac{P_2 - P_1}{T_2 - T_1})_{sat$

where P₁ is the initial pressure ( 50 psia )

P₂ is the final pressure ( 60 psia )

T₁ is the initial temperature ( 15 + 460 )R

T₂ is the final temperature = ?

we substitute;

$T_2$ $= ( 15 + 460 ) + \frac{(60-50)psia(\frac{144in^2}{ft^2}) }{272.98}$

$T_2 = 475 + 5.2751\\$

$T_2 =$ 480.275 R

Therefore, boiling point temperature of this substance when its pressure is 60 psia is 480.275 R
