Answer:

a) 6076 m

b) 43.33 m/s

c) 68 m/s

Explanation:

(a) If the airplane rounds half the circle in 156s, its displacement is the circle diameter in 156s, or twice the circle's radius

s = 2r = 2* 3.38km = 6.76 km or 6760 m

(b) The average velocity would be displacement over unit of time

v = s/t = 6760 / 156 = 43.33 m/s

(c) The length of the chord it's swept in 156s is half of the circle perimeter

c = πr = π3.38 = 10.62 km or 10620 m

The airplane average speed is its chord length over a unit of time

c / t = c / 156 = 68 m/s

The state of strain at a point is plane strain with εx = ε0, εy = –2ε0, γxy = 0, where ε0 is a positive constant. What is the no
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

The normal strain along an axis oriented 45° from the positive x axis in the clockwise direction is -ε₀/2

Explanation:

Given that

\epsilon_{x}=\epsilon_{o}\\\\\epsilon_{y}=-2\epsilon_{o}\\\\\gamma_{xy}=0\\\\\theta=-45^{o}\\\\\epsilon_{x_{1}}=?

From equation of normal strain in x direction:

\epsilon_{x_{1}}=\epsilon_{x}cos^{2}\theta+\epsilon_{y}sin^{2}\theta+\gamma_{xy{ sin\theta cos\theta

Substituting the values:

\epsilon_{x_{1}}=\epsilon_{o}cos^{2}(-45)-2\epsilon_{o}sin^{2}(-45)+0\\\\\epsilon_{x_{1}}=\frac{\epsilon_{o}}{2}-2\frac{\epsilon_{o}}{2}\\\\\epsilon_{x_{1}}=-\frac{\epsilon_{o}}{2}

The distance between the centers of the wheels of a motorcycle is 156 cm. The center of mass of the motorcycle, including the ri
Drupady [299]

Answer:

a = 9.86 m/s²

Explanation:

given,

distance between the centers of wheel = 156 cm

center of mass of motorcycle including rider = 77.5 cm

horizontal acceleration of motor cycle = ?

now,

The moment created by the wheels must equal the moment created by gravity.

take moment about wheel as it touches the ground, here we will take horizontal distance between them.

then, take the moment around the center of mass. Since the force on the ground from the wheels is horizontal, we need the vertical distance.

now equating both the moment

m g d = F h

d is the horizontal distance

h is the vertical distance

m g d = m a h

term of mass get eliminated

g d = a h

so,

a = \dfrac{g\ d}{h}

a = \dfrac{9.8\times 0.78}{0.775}

a = 9.86 m/s²

You set out to design a car that uses the energy stored in a flywheel consisting of a uniform 101-kg cylinder of radius r that h
Ket [755]
Ok, assuming "mj" in the question is Megajoules MJ) you need a total amount of rotational kinetic energy in the fly wheel at the beginning of the trip that equals
(2.4e6 J/km)x(300 km)=7.2e8 J
The expression for rotational kinetic energy is

E = (1/2)Iω²  

where I is the moment of inertia of the fly wheel and ω is the angular velocity.  
So this comes down to finding the value of I that gives the required energy.  We know the mass is 101kg.  The formula for a solid cylinder's moment of inertia is

 I = (1/2)mR²

We want (1/2)Iω² = 7.2e8 J and we know ω is limited to 470 revs/sec.  However, ω must be in radians per second so multiply it by 2π to get 
ω = 2953.1 rad/s
Now let's use this to solve the energy equation, E = (1/2)Iω²,  for I:
I = 2(7.2e8 J)/(2953.1 rad/s)² = 165.12 kg·m²

Now find the radius R,

 165.12 kg·m² = (1/2)(101)R²,
√(2·165/101) = 1.807m

R = 1.807m
