An automobile with a standard differential turns sharply to the left. The left driving wheel turns on a 20-m radius. Distance be

tween right and left wheels is 1.5 m. What are the rotating speeds of each driving wheel as fractions of the drive shaft speed?

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

    Inner wheel Radius = 20 m,

   Distance between left and right wheel = 1.5m,

Let us assume speed of drive shaft is N rpm.

Formula to calculate angular velocity is as follows.

    Angular velocity of automobile = w = \frac{V}{R}

where,   V = linear velocity of automobile m/min,

              R = turning radius from automobile center in meter

In the given case, angular velocity remains same for inner and outer wheel but there is change in linear velocity of inner wheel and outer wheel.

Now, we assume that

         u = linear velocity of inner wheel

and,   u' = linear velocity of outer wheel.

Formula for angular velocity of inner wheel w = ,

Formula for angular velocity of outer wheel w =

Now, for inner wheels

                   w =

                      = \frac{u}{(R - d)}

                  u = V \times \frac{(R - d)}{R}

                    = V \times (1 - \frac{d}{R})

If radius of wheel is r it will cover  distance in one min.

Since, velocity of wheel is u it will cover distance u in unit time(min)

Thus,             u = 2\pi rn = V \times (1 - \frac{d}{R})

Now, rotation per minute of inner wheel is calculated as follows.

         n = \frac{V}{2 \pi r \times (1 - \frac{d}{R})}

            = \frac{V}{2 \pi r \times (1 - \frac{0.75}{20})} (since 2d = 1.5m given, d = 0.75m),

             = \frac{V}{r} \times 0.1532

So, rotation per minute of outer wheel; n' =  

                   = \frac{V}{2 \pi r \times (1 + \frac{0.75}{20})}

                   = \frac{V}{r} \times 0.1651

A heavy boy and a lightweight girl are balanced on a massless seesaw. The boy moves backward, increasing his distance from the p
slava [35]

Answer:

b. The side the boy is sitting on will tilt downward

Explanation:

Initially, the seesaw is balanced because the torque exerted by the boy is equal to the torque exerted by the girl:

\tau_b = \tau_g\\W_b d_b = W_g d_g

where

Wb is the weight of the boy

db is the distance of the boy from the pivot

Wg is the weight of the girl

dg is the distance of the girl from the pivot

When the boy moves backward, the distance of the boy from the pivot ((d_b) increases, therefore the torques are no longer balanced: the torque exerted by the boy will be larger, and therefore the side of the boy will tilt downward.

When the Glen Canyon hydroelectric power plant in Arizona is running at capacity, 690 m3 of water flows through the dam each sec
bixtya [17]

Answer:

1340.2MW

Explanation:

Hi!

To solve this problem follow the steps below!

1 finds the maximum maximum power, using the hydraulic power equation which is the product of the flow rate by height by the specific weight of fluid

W=αhQ

α=specific weight for water =9.81KN/m^3

h=height=220m

Q=flow=690m^3/s

W=(690)(220)(9.81)=1489158Kw=1489.16MW

2. Taking into account that the generator has a 90% efficiency, Find the real power by multiplying the ideal power by the efficiency of the electric generator

Wr=(0.9)(1489.16MW)=1340.2MW

the maximum possible electric power output is 1340.2MW

An example of kinetic energy is a _____.
zhenek [66]

Answer:

An example of kinetic energy is a <u><em>car coming to a stop</em></u>

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy that a body or system possesses due to its movement. In physics this energy is defined as the amount of work necessary to accelerate a body of a certain mass and in rest position, until reaching a certain speed. This energy obtained will remain unchanged as long as this body does not vary its speed. That is, kinetic energy measures how many changes an object that is moving can cause.

<u><em>An example of kinetic energy is a car coming to a stop</em></u>. If the car is moving and comes to a stop, there is a change in speed, therefore in movement, eventually producing a change in kinetic energy. This energy depends on the mass of the body, in this case the car, and the speed.  As the speed decreases, the kinetic energy will decrease.
