A 8.0-m-diameter parachute of a new design is to be used to transport a load from flight altitude to the ground with an average

vertical speed of 3 m/s. The total weight of the load and parachute is 200 N. Determine the approximate drag coefficient for the parachute.

Answer:

drag coefficient for the parachute is Cd = 1.84177

Explanation:

given data

diameter = 8.0 m

average vertical speed = 3 m/s

total weight of load = 200 N

to find out

drag coefficient for the parachute

solution

we will apply here drag coefficient formula that is express as here  

drag coefficient Cd = \frac{2w}{\rho v^2A}    ......................1

here w is total load and A is area and v is speed

and here ρ = 1.22 kg/cu

put here value we get  

Cd = \frac{2*4*200}{1.229*5^2*\pi * 3^2}  

Cd = 1.84177

drag coefficient for the parachute is Cd = 1.84177

A block of ice weighing 20 lb is taken from the freezer where it was stored at -15"F. How many Btu of heat will be required to c
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Heat required =7126.58 Btu.

Explanation:

Given that

Mass m=20 lb

We know that

1 lb =0.45 kg

So 20 lb=9 kg

m=9 kg

Ice at -15° F and we have to covert it at 200° F.

First ice will take sensible heat at up to 32 F then it will take latent heat at constant temperature and temperature will remain 32 F.After that it will convert in water and water will take sensible heat and reach at 200 F.

We know that

Specific heat for ice C_p=2.03\ KJ/kg.K

Latent heat for ice H=336 KJ/kg

Specific heat for ice C_p=4.187\ KJ/kg.K

We know that sensible heat given as

Q=mC_p\Delta T

Heat for -15F to 32 F:

Q=mC_p\Delta T

Q=9\times 2.03(32+15) KJ

Q=858.69 KJ

Heat for 32 Fto 200 F:

Q=mC_p\Delta T

Q=9\times 4.187(200-32) KJ

Q=6330.74 KJ

Total heat=858.69 + 336 +6330.74 KJ

Total heat=7525.43 KJ

We know that 1 KJ=0.947 Btu

So   7525.43 KJ=7126.58 Btu

So heat required to covert ice into water is 7126.58 Btu.

For a body moving with simple harmonic motion state the equations to represent: i) Velocity ii) Acceleration iii) Periodic Time
max2010maxim [7]

Answer with Explanation:

The general equation of simple harmonic motion is

x(t)=Asin(\omega t+\phi)

where,

A is the amplitude of motion

\omega is the angular frequency of the motion

\phi is known as initial phase

part 1)

Now by definition of velocity we have

v=\frac{dx}{dt}\\\\\therefore v(t)=\frac{d}{dt}(Asin(\omega t+\phi )\\\\v(t)=A\omega cos(\omega t+\phi )

part 2)

Now by definition of acceleration we have

a=\frac{dv}{dt}\\\\\therefore a(t)=\frac{d}{dt}(A\omega cos(\omega t+\phi )\\\\a(t)=-A\omega ^{2}sin(\omega t+\phi )

part 3)

The angular frequency is related to Time period 'T' asT =\frac{2\pi }{\omega }

where

\omega is the angular frequency of the motion of the particle.

Part 4) The acceleration and velocities are plotted below

since the maximum value that the sin(x) and cos(x) can achieve in their respective domains equals 1 thus the maximum value of acceleration and velocity is A\omega ^{2} and A\omega respectively.

A cylinder with a frictionless piston contains 0.05 m3 of air at 60kPa. The linear spring holding the piston is in tension. The
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

18 kJ

Explanation:

Given:

Initial volume of air = 0.05 m³

Initial pressure = 60 kPa

Final volume = 0.2 m³

Final pressure = 180 kPa

Now,

the Work done by air will be calculated as:

Work Done = Average pressure × Change in volume

thus,

Average pressure = \frac{60+180}{2}  = 120 kPa

and,

Change in volume = Final volume - Initial Volume = 0.2 - 0.05 = 0.15 m³

Therefore,

the work done = 120 × 0.15 = 18 kJ
