The drag coefficient of a car at the design conditions of 1 atm, 25°c, and 90 km/h is to be determined experimentally in a large

wind tunnel in a full-scale test. the height and width of the car are 1.25 m and 1.65 m, respectively. if the horizontal force acting on the car is measured to be 230 n, determine the total drag coefficient of this car. take the density of air at 1 atm and 25°c as ρ = 1.164 kg/m3. (round the final answer to two decimal places.)

Velocity = 90 km/h = 25 m/s

Drag coefficient, Cd = 2D/Density of air*Frontal area*sqr. velocity

Substituting,

Cd = (2*230)/(1.164*1.25*1.65*25^2) = 0.3066

A 2,100 kg car is lifted by a pulley. If the cable breaks at 4.50 m, what is the velocity of the car when it hits the ground? 88
sammy [17]
V^2-u^2=2as

v=final velocity=unkown
u=initial velocity=0 m/s, because freely falling
a=acceleration due to gravity=9.8 m/s^2
s=distance (here height) traveled=4.5m

therefore the final velocity,
v^2=2*9.8*4.5
v=<span>9.39m/s</span>

Calculate the entropy change that occurs when 1.0kg of water at 20.00 C is mixed with 2.0kg of water at 80.00 C
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

The change in entropy ΔS = 0.0011 kJ/(kg·K)

Explanation:

The given information are;

The mass of water at 20.0°C = 1.0 kg

The mass of water at 80.0°C = 2.0 kg

The heat content per kg of each of the mass of water is given as follows;

The heat content of the mass of water at 20.0°C = h₁ = 83.92 KJ/kg

The heat content of the mass of water at 80.0°C = h₂ = 334.949 KJ/kg

Therefore, the total heat of the the two bodies = 83.92 + 2*334.949 = 753.818 kJ/kg

The heat energy of the mixture =

1 × 4200 × (T - 20) = 2 × 4200 × (80 - T)

∴ T = 60°C

The heat content, of the water at 60° = 251.154 kJ/kg

Therefore, the heat content of water in the 3 kg of the mixture = 3 × 251.154 = 753.462

The change in entropy ΔS = ΔH/T = (753.818 - 753.462)/(60 + 273.15) = 0.0011 kJ/(kg·K).

If an object is dropped from a tall building and hits the ground 3.0 s. later, what is the magnitude of the object's displacemen
marin [14]

Find the velocity of the object after one second.  

v = vo + at  

v = (0 m/s) + (9.8 m/s^2)(1 s)  

v = 9.8 m/s  

Now, using that, you can find the displacement in that one second between 1 and 2.  

d = vot + (1/2)at^2  

d = (9.8 m/s)(1 s) + (1/2)(9.8 m/s^2)(1 s)^2  

d = 14.7 m
