Answer:

a) \tan \theta = \frac{v^{2}}{g\cdot R}

Explanation:

a) The Free Body Diagram of the vehicle and reference axis are included in the image attached below. Equations or equilibrium are presented below:

\Sigma F_{x} = N\cdot \sin \theta = m\cdot \frac{v^{2}}{R}

\Sigma F_{y} = N\cdot \cos \theta - m\cdot g = 0

Tangent of the highway can be found by dividing the first expression by the second one:

\tan \theta = \frac{m\cdot \frac{v^{2}}{R} }{m\cdot g}

\tan \theta = \frac{v^{2}}{g\cdot R}

Part b) :

Calculate the angle of banking on the highway

Answer:

a)tan \theta = \frac{v^{2} }{rg}

b) \theta = 10.97^{0}

Explanation:

traffic speed, v = 88 km/ h = 88 * (1000/3600) = 24.44 m/s

Radius of the curve, r = 314 m

a) Write an equation for the tangent of the highway's angle of banking.

The traffic should move both in the vertical and horizontal directions

In the vertical direction, it is moving against gravity, therefore

\sum F_{y} = 0\\Ncos \theta - mg =0\\

Ncos \theta = mg..............(1)

For the horizontal movement,

\sum F_{y} = 0\\Nsin \theta - ma =0\\

Nsin \theta = ma................(2)

To get the tangent equation, divide equation (2) bu equation (1)

\frac{N sin \theta}{N cos \theta} = \frac{ma}{mg}

tan \theta = \frac{a}{g}...........(3)

Centripetal acceleration, a = \frac{v^{2} }{r} \\..........(4)

Substituting (4) into (3)

tan \theta = \frac{v^{2} }{r} /g\\tan \theta = \frac{v^{2} }{rg}

b) Angle of banking on the high way

v = 24.44 /s

r = 314 m

g = 9.81 m/s^2

Substituting those values into the result gotten in part a

tan \theta = \frac{24.44^{2} }{314*9.81}\\tan \theta = 0.194\\\theta = tan^{-1} 0.194\\

\theta = 10.97^{0}

andrew11 [14]

The modulus of elasticity is 28.6 X 10³ ksi

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given -

Length, l = 5in

Force, P = 8000lb

Area, A = 0.7in²

δ = 0.002in

Modulus of elasticity, E = ?

We know,

Modulus of elasticity, E = σ / ε

Where,

σ is normal stress

ε is normal strain

Normal stress can be calculated as:

σ = P/A

Where,

P is the force applied

A is the area of cross-section

By plugging in the values, we get

σ = \frac{8000 X 10^-^3}{0.7}

σ = 11.43ksi

To calculate the normal strain we use the formula,

ε = δ / L

By plugging in the values we get,

ε = \frac{0.002}{5}

ε = 0.0004 in/in

Therefore, modulus of elasticity would be:

E = \frac{11.43}{0.004} \\\\E = 28.6 X 10^3 ksi

Thus, modulus of elasticity is 28.6 X 10³ ksi

What would happen to a plane if the weight force becomes greater than the lift force?
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

When the lift is greater than the weight, the aircraft gains altitude. ... Drag must be overcome for the aircraft to move, and movement is essential to obtain lift. To overcome drag and move the aircraft forward, another force is essential. This force is thrust.

Explanation:

Hope this helps!

In contouring, it is necessary to measure position and not velocity for feedback.
EastWind [94]

Answer:

(1). False, (2). True, (3). False, (4). False, (5). True.

Explanation:

The term ''contouring'' in this question does not have to do with makeup but it has to deal with the measurement of all surfaces in planes. It is a measurement in which the rough and the contours are being measured. So, let us check each questions again.

(1). In contouring, it is necessary to measure position and not velocity for feedback.

ANSWER : b =>False. IT IS NECESSARY TO MEASURE BOTH FOR FEEDBACK.

(2). In contouring during 2-axis NC machining, the two axes are moved at the same speed to achieve the desired contour.

ANSWER: a=> True.

(3). Job shop is another term for process layout.

ANSWER: b => False

JOB SHOP IS A FLEXIBLE PROCESS THAT IS BEING USED during manufacturing process and are meant for job Production. PROCESS LAYOUT is used in increasing Efficiency.

(4). Airplanes are normally produced using group technology or cellular layout.

ANSWER: b => False.

(5). In manufacturing, value-creating time is greater than takt time.

ANSWER: a => True.

The purification of hydrogen gas is possible by diffusion through a thin palladium sheet. Calculate the number of kilograms of h
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer: 5.36×10-3kg/h

Where 10-3 is 10 exponential 3 or 10 raised to the power of -3.

Explanation:using the formula

M =JAt = -DAt×Dc/Dx

Where D is change in the respective variables. Insulting the values we get,

=5.1 × 10-8 × 0.13 × 3600 × 2.9 × 0.31 / 4×10-3.

=5.36×10-3kg/h
