Answer:

Explanation:

height raised, h = 200 + 100 = 300 ft

Q = 310 gal / min = 310 / 60 = 5.17 gal/sec

density of water, d = 62.4 lbm/ft^3 = 8.34 lbm/gal

Power = h d g x Q

P = h (dg) Q

P = 300 x 8.34 x 5.17

P = 12935.34 lbf - ft / s

P = 23.52 hp

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

The centripetal acceleration is 6.95 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

angular displacement of the blade, θ = 90.08⁰

duration of motion of the blade, t = 0.4 s

radius of the circle moved by the blade, r = 0.45 m

The angular speed of the blade in radian is calculated as;

\omega  = \frac{\theta}{t} \times \frac{\pi \ radian}{180^0} \\\\\omega  =  \frac{90.08 ^0}{0.4 \ s} \times \frac{\pi \ radian}{180^0} \\\\\omega  = 3.93 \ rad/s

The centripetal acceleration is calculated as;

a = ω²r

a = (3.93)² x 0.45

a = 6.95 m/s²

At one instant of time a rocket is traveling in outer space at 2500m/s and is exhausting fuel at a rate of 100 kg/s. If the spee
lawyer [7]

Thrust is a reaction force described quantitatively by Newton's third law. When a system expels or accelerates mass in one direction, the accelerated mass will cause a force of equal magnitude but opposite direction on that system. Mathematically can be written as,

T = v\frac{dm}{dt}

Here,

v = speed of the exhaust gases measured relative to the rocket.

\frac{dm}{dt}= Rate of change of mass with respect to time

Our values are given as,

v = 1500m/s

\frac{dm}{dt} = 100kg/s

Replacing we have that

T = 1500*100

\therefore T = 1.5*10^5N
