: A pneumatic "cannon" is a device that launches a low mass projectile from a cylindrical tube using pressurized air stored upst

ream of the projectile. The projectile is held in place while the pressurized air is introduced to the cylinder. After the trigger is released, the projectile accelerates down the tube and the pressure upstream of the projectile drops according to the relation.
p = π [ 1 − (x/d)²] /25

where π is the initial (high) pressure in the tube before the trigger is released, x is the distance traveled by the projectile, and d is the diameter of the tube. If we have a 5.0 cm diameter tube, with a projectile initially located 5.0 tube diameters upstream of the tube exit, and the initial pressure upstream of the projectile is 12 bar. Determine the work done by the air on the projectile during the time it is in the tube. Assume that there is no friction between the tube and the projectile.

Answer:

Work done = 125π J

Explanation:

Given:

P = P_i * ( 1 - (x/d)^2 / 25)

d = 5.0 cm

x = 5 * d cm = 25d

Pi = 12 bar

Work done = integral ( F . dx )

F (x) = P(x) * A

F (x) =  (πd^2 / 4) * P_i * (1 - (x/d)^2 / 25)

Work done = integral ((πd^2 / 4) * P_i * (1 - (x/d)^2 / 25) ) . dx

For Limits 0 < x < 5d

Work done = (πd^2 / 4) * P_i  integral ( (1 - (x/d)^2) / 25)) . dx

Integrate the function wrt x

Work done = (πd^2 / 4) * P_i * ( x - d*(x/d)^3 / 75 )  

Evaluate Limits 0 < x < 5d :

Work done = (πd^2 / 4) * P_i * (5d - 5d / 3)

Work done = (πd^2 / 4) * P_i * (10*d / 3)

Work done = (5 π / 6)d^3 * P_i

Input the values:

Work done = (5 π / 6)(0.05)^3 * (1.2*10^6)

Work done = 125π J

Write a SELECT statement that returns these column names and data from the Products table: product_name The product_name column
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

 SELECT  

   product_name, list_price, discount_percent,    

   ROUND(list_price * (discount_percent / 100), 2) AS discount_amount,

   ROUND(list_price - (discount_percent / 100 * list_price), 2)  AS discount_price  

FROM

Products

ORDER BY (list_price - (discount_percent / 100 * list_price)) DESC

LIMIT 5;

Explanation:

In the above SELECT statement is used to select columns from Products table.

The columns are  product_name,list_price and discount_percent

Next a column discount_amount is selected which is the calculated from previous two columns that are list_price and discount_percent. The discount amount is basically calculated by multiplying list_price with discount_percent/100 and the resultant column is named as discount_amount using Alias which is used to give a temporary name to set of columns or a table.

Next another column discount_price is obtained from previous three columns that are  list_price , discount_percent and discount_amount as: list_price - (discount_percent / 100 * list_price) This as a whole is given a column name discount_price.

FROM is used to refer to a table from which these columns are to be selected. The table name is Product.

The result set is sorted in descending order by discount_price so ORDER BY is used to order the resultant records and DESC is used to sort these records according to the discount_price in descending order.

LIMIT statement is used to extract the records from Product and limit the number of rows returned as a result based on a limit value which is 5 here.
