I believe a broom is an example of a lever, so no, not a wedge.

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Velocity, v = 0.239 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The distance between two consecutive nodes of a standing wave is 20.9 cm = 0.209 m

The hand generating the pulses moves up and down through a complete cycle 2.57 times every 4.47 s.

For a standing wave, the distance between two consecutive nodes is equal to half of the wavelength.

\dfrac{\lambda}{2}=0.209\ m\\\\\lambda=0.418\ m

Frequency is number of cycles per unit time.

f=\dfrac{2.57}{4.47}\\\\f=0.574\ Hz

Now we can find the velocity of the wave.

Velocity = frequency × wavelength

v = 0.574 × 0.418

v = 0.239 m/s

So, the velocity of the wave is 0.239 m/s.

20 cubic inches of a gas with an absolute pressure of 5 psi is compressed until its pressure reaches 10 psi. What's the new volu
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

B. V_{f}= 10\,cubic\,inches

Explanation:

Assuming we are dealing with a perfect gas, we should use the perfect gas equation:

PV=nRT

With T the temperature, V the volume, P the pressure, R the perfect gas constant and n the number of mol, we are going to use the subscripts i for the initial state when the gas has 20 cubic inches of volume and absolute pressure of 5 psi, and final state when the gas reaches 10 psi, so we have two equations:

P_{i}V_{i}=n_{i}RT_{i} (1)

P_{f}V_{f}=n_{f}RT_{f} (2)

Assuming the temperature and the number of moles remain constant (number of moles remain constant if we don't have a leak of gas) we should equate equations (1) and (2) because T_{i}=T_{f}, n_{i}=n_{f} and R is an universal constant:

P_{i}V_{i}= P_{f}V_{f}, solving for V_{f}

V_{f} =\frac{P_{i}V_{i}}{P_{f}} =\frac{(5)(20)}{10}

V_{f}= 10 cubic\,inches

4.1 A steel spur pinion has a pitch of 5 teeth/in, 20 full-depth teeth, and a 20° pressure angle. The pinion runs at a speed of
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

15.07 ksi

Explanation:

Given that:

Pitch (P) = 5 teeth/in

Pressure angle (\Phi) = 20°

Pinion speed (n_p ) = 2000 rev/min

Power (H) = 30 hp

Teeth on gear (N_G) = 50

Teeth on pinion (N_p) = 20

Face width (F) = 1 in

Let us first determine the diameter (d) of the pinion.

Diameter (d) = \frac{N}{P}

=\frac{20}{5}

= 4 in

From the values of Lewis Form Factor Y for (n_p ) = 20 ; at 20°

Y = 0.321

To find the velocity (V); we use the formula:

V = \frac{\pi d n_p}{12}

V = \frac{\pi *4*2000}{12}

V = 2094.40 ft/min

For cut or milled profile; the velocity factor (K_v) can be determined as follows:

K_v = \frac{2000+V}{2000}

K_v = \frac{2000+2094.40}{2000}

= 2.0472

However, there is need to get the value of the tangential load(W^t), in order to achieve that, we have the following expression

W^t=\frac{T}{\frac{d}{2} }

W^t = \frac{63025*H}{\frac{n_pd}{2}}

W^t = \frac{63025*30}{2000*\frac{4}{2}}

W^t = 472.69 lbf

Finally, the bending stress is calculated via the formula:

\sigma = \frac{K_vW^tp}{FY}

\sigma = \frac{2.0472*472.69*5}{1*0.321}

\sigma = 15073.07 psi

\sigma = 15.07 ksi

∴ The estimate of the bending stress = 15.07 ksi

A 57 kg pole vaulter running at 11 m/s vaults over the bar. Her speed when she is above the bar is 1.1 m/s. The acceleration of
kari74 [83]

Answer:

Her altitude as she crosses the bar, h₂ is approximately 6.1 m

Explanation:

The given parameters of the motion of the pole vaulter are;

The mass of the pole vaulter, m = 57 kg

The speed with which the pole vaulter is running, u = 11 m/s

The speed of the pole vaulter when she crosses the bar, v = 1.1 m/s

The acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

From the total mechanical energy, M.E. equation, we have;

M.E. = P.E. + K.E.

Where;

P.E. = The potential energy of the motion = m·g·h

K.E. = The kinetic energy of the motion = 1/2·m·v²

By the principle of conservation of energy, we have;

The change (loss) in kinetic energy, ΔK.E. = The change (gain) in potential energy, ΔP.E.

ΔK.E. = 1/2·m·(v² - u²)

ΔP.E. = m·g·(h₂ - h₁)

Where;

h₁ = The ground level = 0 m

h₂ = The altitude with which she crosses the bar

∴ 1/2·m·(v² - u²) = m·g·(h₂ - h₁)

(h₂ - h₁) = (v² - u²)/(2·g) = (11² - 1.1²)/(2·9.8) = 6.11173469388

h₂ = 6.11173469388 + h₁ = 6.11173469388 + 0 = 6.11173469388

h₂ = 6.11173469388

Her altitude as she crosses over the bar, h₂ ≈ 6.1 m.
