The engine of a 2000kg car has a power rating of 75kW. How long would it take (seconds) to accelerate from rest to 100 km/hr at

full power on level road. Neglect drag and friction.

Answer: 10.29 sec.

Explanation:

Neglecting drag and friction, and at road level , the energy developed during the time the car is accelerating, is equal to the change in kinetic energy.

If the car starts from rest, this means the following:

ΔK = 1/2 m*vf ²

As Power (by definition) is equal to Energy/Time= 75000 W= 75000 N.m/seg, in order to get time in seconds, we need to convert 100 km/h to m/sec first:

100 (Km/h)*( 1000m /1 Km)*(3600 sec/1 h)= 27,78 m/sec

Now, we calculate the change in energy:

ΔK= 1/2*2000 Kg. (27,78)² m²/sec²= 771,728 J

<h2>If P= ΔK/Δt, </h2><h2>Δt= ΔK/P= 771,728 J / 75,000 J/sec= 10.29 sec.</h2>

The fracture strength of glass may be increased by etching away a thin surface layer. It is believed that the etching may alter
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

the ratio of the etched to the original crack tip radius is 30.24

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

we determine the initial fracture stress using the following expression;

(σf)₁ = 2(σ₀)₁ [ α₁/(p_t)₁ ]^{1/2 ----- let this be equation 1

where; (σ₀)₁ is the initial fracture strength

(p_t)₁ is the original crack tip radius

α₁ is the original crack length.

first, we determine the final crack length;

α₂ = α₁ - 16% of α₁

α₂ = α₁ - ( 0.16 × α₁)

α₂ = α₁ - 0.16α₁

α₂ = 0.84α₁

next, we calculate the final fracture stress;

the fracture strength is increased by a factor of 6;

(σ₀)₂ = 6( σ₀ )₁

Now, expression for the final fracture stress

(σf)₂ = 2(σ₀)₂ [ α₂/(p_t)₂ ]^{1/2 ------- let this be equation 2

where (p_t)₂ is the etched crack tip radius

value of fracture stress of glass is constant

Now, we substitute 2(σ₀)₁ [ α₁/(p_t)₁ ]^{1/2 from equation for (σf)₂  in equation 2.

0.84α₁ for α₂.

6( σ₀ )₁ for (σ₀)₂.

∴

2(σ₀)₁ [ α₁/(p_t)₁ ]^{1/2  = 2(6( σ₀ )₁) [ 0.84α₁/(p_t)₂ ]^{1/2  

divide both sides by 2(σ₀)₁

[ α₁/(p_t)₁ ]^{1/2  =  6 [ 0.84α₁/(p_t)₂ ]^{1/2

[ 1/(p_t)₁ ]^{1/2  =  6 [ 0.84/(p_t)₂ ]^{1/2

[ 1/(p_t)₁ ]  =  36 [ 0.84/(p_t)₂ ]

1 / (p_t)₁ = 30.24 / (p_t)₂

(p_t)₂ = 30.24(p_t)₁

(p_t)₂/(p_t)₁ = 30.24

Therefore, the ratio of the etched to the original crack tip radius is 30.24

Please help i am give brainliest i really need help guys no links please ???
devlian [24]

Explanation:

The wind is an actual form of solar energy. winds are caused by the heating of the atmosphere by the sun, the rotation of the earth, and the earth's surface irregularities. The wind is capture in a wind turbine which provides a renewable energy source, the wind makes the rotor spin, as the rotor spins the movement of the blades drives a generator that creates energy, also known as wind power. The average wind efficiency of turbines is between 35-45%.

Advantages of wind power

- Wind power is cost-effective

- wind creates jobs

- wind enables US industry growth and US competitiveness

-it's a clean fuel source

A thick steel slab (rho= 7800 kg/m3 , cp= 480 J/kg K, k= 50 W/m K) is initially at 300 °C and is cooled by water jets impinging
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

t = 2244.3 sec

Explanation:

calculate the thermal diffusivity

\alpha = \frac{k}{\rho c}

           = \frac{50}{7800\times 480} = 1.34 \times 10^{-5} m^2/s

                   

Temperature at 28 mm distance after t time  = =  50 degree C

we know that

\frac[ T_{28} - T_s}{T_i -T_s} = erf(\frac{x}{2\sqrt{at}})

\frac{ 50 -25}{300-25} = erf [\frac{28\times 10^{-3}}{2\sqrt{1.34\times 10^{-5}\times t}}]

0.909 = erf{\frac{3.8245}{\sqrt{t}}}

from gaussian error function table , similarity variable w calculated as

erf w = 0.909

it is lie between erf w = 0.9008  and erf w = 0.11246 so by interpolation we have

w = 0.08073

erf 0.08073 = erf[\frac{3.8245}{\sqrt{t}}]

0.08073 = \frac{3.8245}{\sqrt{t}}

solving fot t we get

t = 2244.3 sec
