Block A has a weight of 8 lb. and block B has a weight of 6 lb. They rest on a surface for which the coefficient of kinetic fric

tion is 0.2 . If the spring between them has a stiffness of k=20 lb/ft, and it is compressed 0.2 ft, determine the acceleration of each block just after they are released.

Answer:

For block A, a = 9.66 ft/s²

For block B, a = 15 ft/s²

Explanation:

A free body diagram for this force system is attached to this solution

Mass of block A = m₁ = 8 lb

Mass of block B = m₂ = 6 lb

Coefficient of kinetic friction = μ

Normal reaction on the blocks = N

Spring stiffness of the spring btw block A and B = k = 20 lb/ft

Compression of the spring = 0.2 ft

Analysing Block A first

The forces on block A include, the weight, normal reaction, frictional force and the elastic force due to the spring

Sum of forces in the y-direction = 0

So, the weight of the block = Normal reaction of the surface on the block

N = W = 8 lb

Sum of forces in the x-direction = maₓ

(k × x) - (μ × N) = maₓ

m = W/g = 8/32.2 = 0.248 lbm

(20×0.2) - (0.2 × 8) = (0.248) aₓ

aₓ = 9.66 ft/s²

The forces on block B include, the weight, normal reaction, frictional force and the elastic force due to the spring

Sum of forces in the y-direction = 0

So, the weight of the block = Normal reaction of the surface on the block

N = W = 6 lb

Sum of forces in the x-direction = maₓ

(k × x) - (μ × N) = maₓ

m = W/g = 6/32.2 = 0.186 lbm

(20×0.2) - (0.2 × 6) = (0.186) aₓ

aₓ = 15 ft/s²

A weighted, frictionless piston-cylinder device initially contains 5.25 kg of R134a as saturated vapor at 500 kPa. The container

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

-6.326 KJ/K

Explanation:

A) the entropy change is defined as:

$delta S_{12}=\int\limits^2_1 \, \frac{dQ}{T}$

In an isobaric process heat (Q) is defined as:

$Q= m*Cp*dT$

Replacing in the equation for entropy

$delta S_{12}=\int\limits^2_1 \frac{m*Cp*dT}{T}$

m is the mass and Cp is the specific heat of R134a. We can considerer these values as constants so the expression for entropy would be:

$delta S_{12}= m*Cp*\int\limits^2_1 \frac{ dT }{T}$

Solving the integral we get the expression to estimate the entropy change in the system

$delta S_{12}= m*Cp *ln(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}})$

The mass is 5.25 Kg and Cp for R134a vapor can be consulted in tables, this value is $0.85\frac{kJ}{Kg*K}$

We can get the temperature at the beginning knowing that is saturated vapor at 500 KPa. Consulting the thermodynamic tables, we get that temperature of saturation at this pressure is: 288.86 K

The temperature in the final state we can get it from the heat expression, since we know how much heat was lost in the process (-976.71 kJ). By convention when heat is released by the system a negative sign is used to express it.

$Q= m*Cp*dT$

With $dt=T_{2}-T_{1}$ clearing for T2 we get:

$T_{2}=\frac{Q}{m*Cp}+T1= \frac{-976.71kJ}{5.25Kg*0.85\frac{kJ}{Kg*K}}+288.86 K =69.98 K$

Now we can estimate the entropy change in the system

$delta S_{12}= m*Cp*ln(\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}})= 5.25Kg*0.85\frac{kJ}{Kg*K}*ln(\frac{69.98}{288.861})= -6.326\frac{kJ}{K}$

The entropy change in the system is negative because we are going from a state with a lot of disorder (high temperature) to one more organize (less temperature. This was done increasing the entropy of the surroundings.

Explicar el funcionamiento de un multímetro analógico.

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

Un multímetro analógico funciona como un medidor de bobina móvil de imán permanente (PMMC) para tomar mediciones eléctricas

Explanation:

El multímetro analógico es un medidor o galvanómetro D'Arsonval que funciona según el principio de los medidores de bobina móvil de imán permanente (PMMC)

Un multímetro analógico está formado por un puntero de aguja unido a una bobina móvil colocada entre el polo norte y sur de un imán permanente dispuesto de tal manera que, cuando una corriente eléctrica fluye a través de la bobina, genera una fuerza de campo magnético que interactúa con el imán fuerza de campo de los imanes permanentes que hace que la bobina se mueva junto con el puntero de la aguja sobre un dial graduado

Para controlar el movimiento del puntero de la aguja, de modo que el par requerido para producir una cantidad de movimiento por corriente detectada por el multímetro, se colocan dos resortes a través de la bobina para proporcionar resistencia al movimiento en ambas direcciones y para permitir la calibración del multímetro analógico.

A flywheel made of Grade 30 cast iron (UTS = 217 MPa, UCS = 763 MPa, E = 100 GPa, density = 7100 Kg/m, Poisson's ratio = 0.26) h

hram777 [196]

Answer:

N = 38546.82 rpm

Explanation:

$D_{1}$ = 150 mm

$A_{1}= \frac{\pi }{4}\times 150^{2}$

= 17671.45 $mm^{2}$

$D_{2}$ = 250 mm

$A_{2}= \frac{\pi }{4}\times 250^{2}$

= 49087.78 $mm^{2}$

The centrifugal force acting on the flywheel is fiven by

F = M ( $R_{2}$ - $R_{1}$ ) x $w^{2}$ ------------(1)

Here F = ( -UTS x $A_{1}$ + UCS x $A_{2}$ )

Since density, $\rho = \frac{M}{V}$

$\rho = \frac{M}{A\times t}$

$M = \rho \times A\times t$ $M = 7100 \times \frac{\pi }{4}\left ( D_{2}^{2}-D_{1}^{2} \right )\times t$

$M = 7100 \times \frac{\pi }{4}\left ( 250^{2}-150^{2} \right )\times 37$

$M = 8252963901$

∴ $R_{2}$ - $R_{1}$ = 50 mm

∴ F = $763\times \frac{\pi }{4}\times 250^{2}-217\times \frac{\pi }{4}\times 150^{2}$

F = 33618968.38 N --------(2)

Now comparing (1) and (2)

$33618968.38 = 8252963901\times 50\times \omega ^{2}$

∴ ω = 4036.61

We know

$\omega = \frac{2\pi N}{60}$

$4036.61 = \frac{2\pi N}{60}$

∴ N = 38546.82 rpm
