A heavy ball with a weight of 110 N is hung from the ceiling of a lecture hall on a 4.9-m-long rope. The ball is pulled to one s

ide and released to swing as a pendulum, reaching a speed of 5.0 m/s as it passes through the lowest point.
Required:
What is the tension in the rope at that point?

Answer:T = 167.3 N

Explanation:

Given that the

Weight mg = 110 N

The mass m of the ball will be

m = 110/9.8 = 11.22 kg

As the direction of the ball’s velocity is changing, the force responsible for this is centripetal force F. And

F = mV^2/r

Where

V = 5.0 m/s

r = L = 4.9 m

m = 11.22

Substitute all these parameters into the formula

F = (11.22 × 5^2)/4.9

F = 280.6/4.9

F = 57.27 N

Tension T = F + mg

Substitute F and mg into the formula

T = 57.27 + 110

T = 167.3 N

Therefore, the tension in the rope at that point is 167.3 N

(a) Determine the dose (in mg/kg-day) for a bioaccumulative chemical with BCF = 103 that is found in water at a concentration of
solmaris [256]

Answer:

0.064 mg/kg/day

6.25% from water, 93.75% from fish

Explanation:

Density of water is 1 kg/L, so the concentration of the chemical in the water is 0.1 mg/kg.

The BCF = 10³, so the concentration of the chemical in the fish is:

10³ = x / (0.1 mg/kg)

x = 100 mg/kg

For 2 L of water and 30 g of fish:

2 kg × 0.1 mg/kg = 0.2 mg

0.030 kg × 100 mg/kg = 3 mg

The total daily intake is 3.2 mg.  Divided by the woman's mass of 50 kg, the dosage is:

(3.2 mg/day) / (50 kg) = 0.064 mg/kg/day

b) The percent from the water is:

0.2 mg / 3.2 mg = 6.25%

And the percent from the fish is:

3 mg / 3.2 mg = 93.75%

Consider a fan located in a 3 ft by 3 ft square duct. Velocities at various points at the outlet are measured, and the average f
natulia [17]

Answer:

minimum electric power consumption of the fan motor is 0.1437 Btu/s

Explanation:

given data

area = 3 ft by 3 ft

air density = 0.075 lbm/ft³

to find out

minimum electric power consumption of the fan motor

solution

we know that energy balance equation that is express as

E in - E out  = \frac{dE \ system}{dt}    ......................1

and at steady state  \frac{dE \ system}{dt} = 0

so we can say from equation 1

E in = E out

so

minimum power required is

E in = W = m \frac{V^2}{2} = \rho A V \frac{V^2}{2}  

put here value

E in =  \rho A V \frac{V^2}{2}  

E in =  0.075 *3*3* 22 \frac{22^2}{2}  

E in = 0.1437 Btu/s

minimum electric power consumption of the fan motor is 0.1437 Btu/s

Conditions of special concern: i. Suggest two reasons each why distillation columns are run a.) above or b.) below ambient press
lutik1710 [3]

Solution :

Methods for selling pressure of a distillation column :

a). Set, \text{based on the pressure required to condensed} the overhead stream using cooling water.

  (minimum of approximate 45°C condenser temperature)

b). Set, \text{based on highest temperature} of bottom product that avoids decomposition or reaction.

c). Set, \text{based on available highest } not utility for reboiler.

Running the distillation column above the ambient pressure because :

The components to be distilled have very high vapor pressures and the temperature at which they can be condensed at or below the ambient pressure.

Run the reactor at an evaluated temperature because :

a). The rate of reaction is taster. This results in a small reactor or high phase conversion.

b). The reaction is endothermic and equilibrium limited increasing the temperature shifts the equilibrium to the right.

Run the reaction at an evaluated pressure because :

The reaction is gas phase and the concentration and hence the rate is increased as the pressure is increased. This results in a smaller reactor and /or higher reactor conversion.

The reaction is equilibrium limited and there are few products moles than react moles. As increase in pressure shifts the equilibrium to the right.

why is the thermal conductivity of super insolation order of magnitude lower than the thermal conductivity of ordinary insulatio
Anni [7]

Answer:

Super insulation are obtained by using layers of highly reflective sheets separated by glass fibers in an vacuumed space. Radiation heat transfer between any of the surfaces is inversely proportional to the number of sheets used and thus heat lost by radiation will be very low by using these highly reflective sheets which will an effective way of heat transfer.

When replacing a timing belt, many experts and vehicle manufacturers recommend that all of the following should be replaced exce
lora16 [44]

Answer:

Correct Answer:

A. water pump

Explanation:

<em>Timing belt in a vehicle helps to ensure that crankshaft, pistons and valves operate together in proper sequence.</em> Timing belts are lighter, quieter and more efficient than chains that was previously used in vehicles.

<em>Most car manufacturers recommended that, when replacing timing belt, tension assembly, water pump, camshaft oil seal should also be replaced with it at same time. </em>
