Modern commercial airliners are largely made of aluminum, a light and strong metal. But the fact that aluminum is cheap enough t

hat airplanes can be made out of it is a bit of historical luck. Before the discovery of the Hall-Héroult process in , aluminum was as rare and expensive as gold. What would happen if airplanes had to be made of steel? The fuselage of the Boeing 747, which can carry passengers, is approximately a hollow aluminum cylinder without ends, long, wide, and thick (see sketch at right). The fuselage of an airplane Suppose this fuselage was made of steel (density ) instead of aluminum (density ), and let's say the average passenger has a mass of . We'll also assume the engines can't lift any greater mass than they already do. Calculate the number of passengers that the Boeing 747 could carry if its fuselage was made of steel.

Answer:

 n = 291 people

Explanation:

To solve this interesting problem we are going to take some data from the tables, the density of 7075 aluminum is 2.8 103 kg / m³, the density of 316 stainless steel is 7980 kg / m³, where we have selected one of the most used alloys in for its resistance.

The average mass of a passenger is mo = 80kg and the Boeing 747 aircraft can carry 550 passengers and a crew of 18 people with a length of 70.66 m,

Let's start by calculating the mass of the empty plane and the mass of the passengers

         ρ_Al = m_Al / V

         m_Al = ρ_Al V

         m_passenger= #_pasajeros 80

         m_passenger = 550 m₀

         

The total mass of the plane is

          M = m_passengers + m_Al

If the plane is built face to face, the mass of this material is

        ρ_Acero = m_steel / V

         

the total mass of avino is

         M = m_pasajeros` + m_steel

As they indicate the total mass of the plane must remain constant

         m_passengers + m_Al = m_passengers` + m_steel

let's substitute the values

         550 m₀ + 2.8 103 V = n m₀ + 7.98 103 V

where V is the volume of the material used which is the same in both cases

         n = 550 mo + (2.8 - 7.98) 103 V = n mo

         n = n = 550 + (2.8 - 7.98) 103 V / mo

The calculation of the volume of material used depends on the thickness of the sheet and the resistance of the material, if it assumes that it has the same thickness, e = 1 cm, approximate the volume to the length of the circle by the length of the cylinder by the thickness

         V = (2π r) L e

  the diameter of the plane approximately the height of the person

         d = 1.8 m

         V = 2π (1.8 / 2) 70.66 1 10⁻²

         V = 3.9957 m³

  we substitute

          n = 550 - 5.18 10³ (3.9957) / 80

          n = 550 - 258.7

          n = 291 people

The angular speed of the rotor in a centrifuge increases from 420 to 1420 rad/s in a time of 5.00 s. (a) Obtain the angle throug
9966 [12]

Answer:

a) θ = 2500 radians

b) α = 200 rad/s²

Explanation:

Using equations of motion,

θ = (w - w₀)t/2

θ = angle turned through = ?

w = final angular velocity = 1420 rad/s

w₀ = initial angular velocity = 420

t = time taken = 5s

θ = (1420 - 420) × 5/2 = 2500 rads

Again,

w = w₀ + αt

α = angular accelaration = ?

1420 = 420 + 5α

α = 1000/5 = 200 rad/s²

50g of ice at 0°C is mixed with 50g of water at 80°C, what will be the final temperature of a mixture in
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

0° C

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of ice, m = 50g

Mass of water, m(w) = 50g

Temperature of ice, T(i) = 0° C

Temperature of water, T(w) = 80° C

Also, it is known that

Specific heat of water, c = 1 cal/g/°C

Latent heat of ice, L(w) = 89 cal/g

Let us assume T to be the final temperature of mixture.

This makes the energy balance equation:

Heat gained by ice to change itself into water + heat gained by melted ice(water) to raise its temperature at T° C = heat lost by water to reach at T° C

m(i).L(i) + m(i).c(w)[T - 0] = m(w).c(w)[80 - T], on substituting, we have

50 * 80 + 50 * 1(T - 0) = 50 * 1(80 - T)

4000 + 50T = 4000 - 50T

0 = 100 T

T = 0° C

Thus, the final temperature is 0° C

34. A train, starting from rest, accelerates along the platform at a uniform rate of 0.6 m/s2. A passenger standing on the platf
ira [324]

Answer:

4.08 s

Explanation:

Let the passenger took "t" time to catch the train

so in this case the total distance moved by the train + 5 m = total distance moved by the passenger

so we will have

distance moved by train is given as

d_1 = \frac{1}{2}(0.6) t^2

also the distance moved by passenger

d_2 = \frac{1}{2}(1.2) t^2

so we will have

d_1 + 5 = d_2

0.3 t^2 + 5 = 0.6 t^2

0.3 t^2 = 5

t = 4.08 s

Why can concave mirror is used in cosmetic mirror​
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

"When face is placed between the concave mirror and its focus, it produces a magnified image. This enlarged image of face is helpful in makeup as even pores of skin are clearly visible."

What type of climate would be near cold ocean currents? PLEASE HELP QUICK!!
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

hot humid with lots of rain.

Explanation:

ocean currents act as conveyer belts of warm and cold water sending heat to the polar regions and helping the tropical areas cool off, thus influencing both weather and climate. the tropics are particularly rainy because heat absorption , and thus ocean evaporation, is highest.
