A single-engine helicopter has two rotors; a main rotor and a tail rotor. The main rotor has a diameter of 14.4 m and rotates at

the rate of 450 rev/min while the tail rotor with a diameter of 1.6 m rotates at 4100 rev/min. What are the speeds, in m/s, of the tips of each rotor? main rotor speed m/s tail rotor speed m/s

Answer:

339.12 m/s, 343.31 m/s

Explanation:

For main rotor

diameter, d = 14.4 m

radius, r = 7.2 m

f = 450 rev/min = 450 / 60 = 7.5 rps

Angular speed, ω = 2 x π x f = 2 x 3.14 x 7.5 = 47.1 rad/s

linear speed, v = r x ω = 7.2 x 47.1 = 339.12 m/s

For tail rotor

diameter, d = 1.6 m

radius, r = 0.8 m

f = 4100 rev/min = 4100 / 60 = 68.33 rps

Angular speed, ω = 2 x π x f = 2 x 3.14 x 68.33 = 429.13 rad/s

linear speed, v = r x ω = 0.8 x 429.13 = 343.31 m/s

Electric fuse and a Circuit breaker contains?
Orlov [11]

Fuses and Circuit Breakers (CB) are used for the protection of power system. These along with other protective equipment like relays, isolater, switches, are collectively called as switchgear(switching equipment used in power systems).

The basic function is to break the circuit in case of faulty conditions so as to protect the power system equipment and auxiliaries.

FUSE is a low resistance device which is placed in the circuit for protection. Under faulty conditions when the current becomes more than the desired value, then due to the increase in temperature the fuse wire melts and breaks, thus breaking the circuit. These are used for lower power ratings and can be used only once, after that it has to be replaced with a new one.

CIRCUIT BREAKER also solves the same purpose i.e. it breaks the circuit when the fault occurs. These are used for large ratings and in the power systems and auxiliaries. CB also has the capability to re-close after the fault is through i.e. when the system gets healthy. The CB has two parts/contacts one is static and the other is moving(the one responsible for making or breaking the contacts).When the contacts of CB separate, then it said to have tripped. Tripping of the circuit breaker has to be very fast so as to avoid the arc formation between the two contacts, otherwise it will defeat the purpose of installing the CB. The trip signal is given to the CB by an other protective device called as an ELECTRICAL RELAY. CB’s are categorized on the basis of the power ratings and the medium used to extinguish the arc formed during the breaking of the contacts.

Explain in detail the birth life and death of a main sequence star give an example
galina1969 [7]
Birth Star:
Main sequence stars fuse hydrogen atoms to form helium atoms in their cores. About 90 percent of the stars in the universe, including the sun, are main sequence stars. These stars can range from about a tenth of the mass of the sun to up to 200 times as massive. Stars start their lives as clouds of dust and gas.
Death Star:
Dense regions in the clouds collapse and form "protostars". Initially, the gravitational energy of the collapsing star is the source of its energy. Once the star contracts enough that its central core can burn hydrogen to helium, it becomes a "main sequence" star.

In an incompressible three-dimensional flow field, the velocity components are given by u = ax + byz; υ = cy + dxz. Determine th
Ksivusya [100]

An incompressible flow field F in a 3D cartesian grid with components u,v,w:

F = u + v + w

where u,v,w are functions of x,y,z

Must satisfy:

∇·F = du/dx + dv/dy + dw/dz = 0

We have a field F defined:

F = u+v+w, u = ax+byz, v = cy+dxz

du/dx = a, dv/dy = c

Recall ∇·F = 0:

∇·F = du/dx + dv/dy + dw/dz = 0

a + c + dw/dz = 0

dw/dz = -a-c

Solve for w by separation of variables:

w = ∫(-a-c)dz

w = -az - cz + f(x,y)

f(x,y) is some undetermined function of x and y

The question states that w is not a function of x and y, therefore f(x,y) = 0...

w = -az - cz

Why aren't humans as evolved as we think we are?
bezimeni [28]
Well there is many ways we are not evolved as much as we think we are from being we die from a lot of diseases to world hunger and other things to be honest humans are far from being really evolved in life we really need to focus on cures and solving world hunger and fighting among ourselves 

Hope this helps
