A cannon fires a ball vertically upward from the Earth’s surface. Which one of the following statements concerning the net force

acting on the ball at the top of its trajectory is correct?a) The net force on the ball is instantaneously equal to zero newtons at the top of the flight path.b) The direction of the net force on the ball changes from upward to downward.c) The net force on the ball is less than the weight, but greater than zero newtons.d) The net force on the ball is greater than the weight of the ball.e) The net force on the ball is equal to the weight of the ball.

Answer:

a) The net force on the ball is instantaneously equal to zero newtons at the top of the flight path.

Explanation:

At an instantenous time at the top of the flight path, the upward force due to the Canon explosion on the ball is just equal to the weight of the ball, this will equate the net force on the ball to zero. At this point the velocity of the ball is zero before it decends down to earth under its own weight.

A ship tows a submerged cylinder, 1.5 m in diameter and 22 m long, at U = 5 m/s in fresh water at 20°C. Estimate the towing powe
shusha [124]

Answer:

(a) 120 kW

(b) 800 kW

Explanation:

Given:

diameter: 1.5 m

length = 22 m

U = 5 m/s

temperature = 20°C

For water at 20°C, take ρ = 998 kg/m³  and µ = 0.001 kg/m⋅s

To find:

power in kW

(a) if the cylinder is parallel

Length / Diameter = L / D = 22 / 1.5 = 14.6 = 15

Re(L) = ρ*U*L / µ = 998 * 5 * 22 / 0.001 = 109780000 = 1.1E8

C(D.Frontal) ≈ 1.1

  Force = F = 1.1 * ρ/2 * U² * π / 4 * D

            =  1.1 (998 / 2) (5)²(π / 4)(1.5)²  

            = 1.1 * 499 * 25 * 0.785 * 2.25

            = 24000 N

Power = Force * Displacement / time

           = F * U

           = 24000 * 5

           = 120000

Power = 120 kW

b) if the cylinder is normal to the tow direction.

Re(L) = ρ*U*D / µ = 998 * 5 * 1.5 / 0.001 = 7485000 = 7.5E6

C(D.Frontal) ≈ 0.4

Force = F = 0.4 * ρ/2 * U² * D * L

            =  0.4 (998 / 2) (5)²(1.5)(22)  

            = 164670 ≈ 165000

Power = Force * Displacement / time

           = F * U

           = 165000 * 5 = 825000

           ≈ 800 kW

Power = 800 kW

Suggest suitable materials of construction for the following applications and provide justifications.
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

a)  316 stainless steel

b)  316 stainless steel

c)  Carbon steel

d)  stainless steel 316

e)  stainless steel 316

f )   Carbon steel

Explanation:

<u>A) A 10,000 M' storage tank for Toluene</u>

The best material for building this tank is 316 stainless steel this is because it is relatively cheaper than other materials such as Hest Alloy C while still maintaining  the required tensile strength needed to build the storage tank for Toluene

<u>B) A 5.0 m' tank for storing a 30% w/w aqueous solution of sodium chloride </u>

The suitable material for building this tank is 316 stainless steel as it is cheaper than Titanium and Hest Alloy C and it is compatible with sodium chloride

<u>C) A 2 m diameter, 20 m high distillation column, distilling acrylonitrile </u>

The best material for constructing this column is  Carbon steel and this is because  it has a very high compressive strength which is approximately . 1320 MPa

<u>D)  A 100 m storage tank for strong nitric acid.</u>

The best material is stainless steel 316 and this is due to its high tensile strength

E) 316 stainless steel

F) Carbon steel is suitable for building this absorption column because  it has a very high compressive strength which is approximately . 1320 MPa
