Answer:

The gauge pressure of air is 110 kpa

Explanation:

Atmospheric pressure, P_{atm} = 101 Kpa

P_{gauge} + \rho_w gh_1 + \rho_o gh_2 -\rho_{Hg} gh_3 =P_{atm}

P_{gauge}  = P_{atm} - \rho_w gh_1 - \rho_o gh_2 +\rho_{Hg} gh_3

where;

ρw is the density of water = 1000 kg/m³

ρo is the density of oil = 800 kg/m³

ρHg is the density of mercury = 13,600 kg/m³

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

P_{gauge}  = 101,000 - (1000* 9.8*0.2) - (800* 9.8*0.3) +(13,600* 9.8*0.46)\\\\P_{gauge}  = 101,000 - 1960 - 2352 + 13610.26\\\\P_{gauge}  = 110,298.26 pa

Therefore, the gauge pressure of air is 110 kpa

the displacement (in centimeters) of a particle moving back and forth along a straight line is given by the equation of motion s
12345 [234]

The average velocity or displacement of a particle for the first time interval is <u>Δs / Δt = 6 cm/s.</u>

Solution:

As we know that displacement is calculated in centimeters and the unit of time is second.

The average velocity for the first interval [1,2] is given

Δs / Δt = s (t2) - s (t) / t2 - t1

Δs / Δt = 2sin2  π  + 3cos 2 π -  ( 2sin π + 3cos π ) / 2 - 1

Δs / Δt = 2(0) + 3(1) - 2(0) - 3 (-1) / 1

Δs / Δt = 6 cm/s

Thus the average velocity or displacement of a particle for the first time interval is Δs / Δt = 6 cm/s

The complete question is:

The displacement of a particle moving back and forth along a line is given by the following equation s(t) = 2sin π t + 3cos π t. Estimate the instantaneous velocity of the particle when t = 1

A block of mass m=1.2 kg is held at rest against a spring with a force constant k=730N/m. Initially the spring is compressed a d
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

potential energy of compressed spring

= 1/2 k d²

= 1/2 x 730 d²

= 365 d²

This energy will be given to block of mass of 1.2 kg in the form of kinetic energy .

Kinetic energy after crossing the rough patch

= 1/2 x 1.2 x 2.3²

= 3.174 J

Loss of energy

= 365 d² - 3.174  

This loss is due to negative work done by frictional force

work done by friction = friction force x width of patch

= μmg d ,   μ = coefficient of friction , m is mass of block , d is width of patch

= .44 x 1.2 x 9.8 x .05

= .2587 J

365 d² - 3.174   = .2587

365 d² = 3.4327

d² = 3.4327 / 365

= .0094

d = .097 m

= 9.7 cm

If friction increases , loss of energy increases . so to achieve same kinetic energy , d will have to be increased so that initial energy increases so compensate increased loss .

Multiple-Concept Example 13 presents useful background for this problem. The cheetah is one of the fastest accelerating animals,
Andre45 [30]

Answer:

9241.6 W or 12.39318 hp

Explanation:

u = Initial velocity = 0

v = Final velocity

m = Mass

t = Time taken

Energy

KE=\frac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)\\\Rightarrow KE=\frac{1}{2}108(30.4^2-0^2)\\\Rightarrow KE=49904.64\ Joules

Power

P=\frac{KE}{t}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{49904.64}{5.4}\\\Rightarrow P=9241.6\ W

Converting to hp

1\ W=\frac{1}{745.7}\ hp

\\\Rightarrow 9241.6\ W=\frac{9241.6}{745.7}\ hp=12.39318\ hp

The power developed by the cheetah is 9241.6 W or 12.39318 hp
