Answer:

The material cost for making one ton of the brass sample that I have is $8149.04.

Explanation:

Density of copper = 8.96 g/cm^3 = 8.96×10^-3 kg/cm^3

Price of copper = $6.13/kg

Price of copper per volume = 8.96×10^-3 kg/cm^3 × $6.13/kg = $0.0549/cm^3

Density of zinc = 7.14 g/cm^3 = 7.14×10^-3 kg/cm^3

Price of zinc = $1.8/kg

Price of zinc per volume = 7.14×10^-3 kg/cm^3 × $1.8/kg = $0.0129/cm^3

Price of brass per volume = 0.0549 + 0.0129 = $0.0678/cm^3

Density of brass I have is 8.32 g/cm^3 = 8.32 g/cm^3 × 1 kg/1000 g × 1 ton/1000 kg = 8.32×10^-6 ton/cm^3

Price = $0.0678/cm^3 ÷ 8.32×10^-6 ton/cm^3 = $8149.04/ton

Answer:

  The Price of making 1 Ton of Brass is  =  $4180.4

Explanation:

Generally density of an alloy is mathematically represented as

              Z = \sum A *\rho

  Where Z is the Average density of an alloy

               A is the fraction of metal

               \rho is the density of metal

From the question we are told that  brass  is an alloy made of copper and zinc

 Let assume that the percentage of copper in Brass is y%

   The the percentage of the zinc would be  (100 - y )%

   Substituting this into the formula

                8.32 g/cm^3 =\frac{y}{100} * 8.96 + \frac{(100 -x)}{100} * 7.14

=>              832 = 8.96y  + 714 - 7.14y

=>             8.96y - 7.14y = 832-714

=>              1.82y = 118

=>                    y = \frac{118}{1.82} = 64.84%

    This implies that the percentage of copper in Brass is 64.84%

        This mean that the percentage of zinc in Brass is (100- 64.84) = 35.16%

   Generally One Ton of Brass =  907.185Kg

So amount of copper in this is

                   = \frac{64.84}{100} * 907.185 = 588.29 Kg

And the price would be   = 588.29 * 6.13 = $3606

And the amount of zinc is  = \frac{35.16}{100} * 907.185 =318.97Kg

And the price would be   = 318.97 * 1.80= $574.146        

  The Price of making 1 Ton of Brass is  = 3606 + 574.146 = $4180.4

An apple dropped from the branch of a tree hits the ground in 0.5 s. If the acceleration of the apple during its motion is 10 ms
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Given that,

Time = 0.5 s

Acceleration = 10 m/s²

(I). We need to calculate the speed of apple

Using equation of motion

v=u+at

Where, v = speed

u = initial speed

a = acceleration

t = time

Put the value into the formula

v=0+10\times0.5

v=5\ m/s

(III). We need to calculate the height of the branch of the tree from the ground

Using equation of motion

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

Put the value into the formula

s=0+\dfrac{1}{2}\times10\times(0.5)^2

s=1.25\ m

(II). We need to calculate the average velocity during 0.5 sec

Using formula of average velocity

v_{avg}=\dfrac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}

v_{avg}=\dfrac{x_{f}-x_{i}}{t_{f}-t_{0}}

Where, x_{f}= final position

x_{i} = initial position

Put the value into the formula

v_{avg}=\dfrac{1.25+0}{0.5}

v_{avg}=2.5\ m/s

Hence, (I). The speed of apple is 5 m/s.

(II). The average velocity during 0.5 sec is 2.5 m/s

(III). The height of the branch of the tree from the ground is 1.25 m.

A 21 N block rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the surface and the block ar
Georgia [21]

Answer:

a)15 N

b)12.6 N

Explanation:

Given that

Weight of block (wt)= 21 N

μs = 0.80 and μk = 0.60

We know that

Maximum value of static friction given as

Frs = μs m g = μs .wt

by putting the values

Frs= 0.8 x 21 = 16.8 N

Value of kinetic friction

Frk= μk m g = μk .wt

By putting the values

Frk= 0.6 x 21 = 12.6 N

a)

When T = 15 N

Static friction Frs= 16.8 N

Here the value of static friction is more than tension T .It means that block will not move and the value of friction force will be equal to the tension force.

Friction force = 15 N

b)

When T= 35 N

Here value of tension force is more than maximum value of static friction that is why block will move .We know that when body is in motion then kinetic friction will act on the body.so the value of friction force in this case will be 12.6 N

Friction force = 12.6 N

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :)
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

Explanation:

1) Hypermetropia (better known as Farsighted- this is why nearby objects seem blurry for him)

2) In such instances, image are typically formed farther from the near point

3) Such defects are quite common so there are common procedures such as using convex lens which can restore the sight to normal.
