Answer:

a) W = 25.5 lbf

b) W = 150 lbf

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of astronaut = 150 lbm

local gravity = 5.48 ft/s^2

a) weight on spring scale

it can be calculated by measuring force against local gravitational force which is equal to weight of body

W = mg

W = (150 \times 5.48)\times \frac{1 lbm}{32.32 lbm. ft/s^2} = 25.5 lbf

b) As we know that beam scale calculated mass only therefore no change in mass due to variation in gravity

thus W= 150 lbf

Igoryamba

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

The Fourier transform of y(t) = x(t - to) is Y(w) = e- jwto X(w) . Therefore the magnitude spectrum of y(t) is given by

|Y(w)| = |X(w)|

The phase spectrum of y(t) is given by

<Y(w) = -wto + <X(w)

please kindly see attachment for the step by step solution of the given problem.

A meter stick can be read to the nearest millimeter and a travelling microscope can be read to the nearest 0.1 mm. Suppose you w
german

Answer: No

Explanation:

Length= 2cm= 20mm

Now meter stick can read to nearest millimeter.

It is given that length is to be measured with a precision of 1% of 20mm= 1/100 * 20= 0.2mm

Since the least count is 1mm of meter stick and precision required is less than that. So, meter stick cannot be used for this, travelling microscope can be used for this as it can read to 0.1mm.

Calculate the volume of a hydraulic accumulator capable of delivering 5 liters of oil between 180 and 80 bar, using as a preload
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

1) V_o = 10 liters

2) V_o = 12.26 liters

Explanation:

For isothermal process n =1

V_o =\frac{\Delta V}{(\frac{p_o}{p_1})^{1/n} -(\frac{p_o}{p_2})^{1/n}}

V_o  = \frac{5}{[\frac{72}{80}]^{1/1} -[\frac{72}{180}]^{1/1}}

V_o = 10 liters

calculate pressure ratio to determine correction factor

\frac{p_2}{p_1} =\frac{180}{80} = 2.25

correction factor for calculate dpressure ration  for isothermal process is

c1 = 1.03

actual \ volume = c1\times 10 = 10.3 liters

b) for adiabatic process

n =1.4

volume of hydraulic accumulator is given as

V_o =\frac{\Delta V}{[\frac{p_o}{p_1}]^{1/n} -[\frac{p_o}{p_2}]^{1/n}}

V_o  = \frac{5}{[\frac{72}{80}]^{1/1.4} -[\frac{72}{180}]^{1/1.4}}

V_o = 12.26 liters

calculate pressure ratio to determine correction factor

\frac{p_2}{p_1} =\frac{180}{80} = 2.25

correction factor for calculate dpressure ration  for isothermal process is

c1 = 1.15

actual \volume = c1\times 10 = 11.5 liters
