Which statement correctly explains mechanical advantage?

A commonly used unit of mass in the English system is the pound-mass, abbreviated lbm, where 1 lbm = 0.454 kg. What is the densi

Gemiola [76]

Answer: The density of glycerine will be $0.028lbm/foot^3$

Explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

$Density=\frac{mass}{Volume}$

Given:

Density of glycerine= $1.26\times 10^3kg/m^3$

1 lbm = 0.454 kg

1 kg = $\frac{1}{0.454}=2.2lbm$

Thus $0.454kg=\frac{2.2}{1}\times 0.454=0.99$

Also $1m^3=35.3147foot^3$

Putting in the values we get:

$Density=\frac{0.99lbm}{35.3147}=0.028lbm/foot^3$

Thus density of glycerine will be $0.028lbm/foot^3$

cluponka [151]

Answer:

12 i. The work done by Wale = 107.910 kJ

The work done by Lekan = 117.720 kJ

Total work done = 225.36 kJ

ii. Wale's power = 4.3164 kW

Lekan's power = 3.924 kW

Wale has more power and is more powerful than Lekan

13. 313.92 N

Explanation:

i. The work done, W = Force, F × Distance moved by the force, D

The given parameters are

The mass of Wale = 55 kg

The mass of Lekan = 60 kg

The acceleration due to gravity, g =9.81 m/s²

The motion force of Wale and Lekan are;

Motion force of Wale = 9.81 × 55 = 539.55 N

Motion force of Lekan = 9.81 × 60 = 588.6 N

The work done by Wale = 539.55 × 200 = 107910 J = 107.910 kJ

The work done by Lekan= 588.6 × 200 = 117720 J = 117.720 kJ

107910 + 117720 =225630 J = 225.36 kJ

ii. Power = Work done/time

Wale finished the race in 25 s, therefore, his power = 107910/25 = 4316.4 W

Lekan finished the race in 30 s, therefore, his power = 117720/30 = 3924 W

Wale has more power and is more powerful than Lekan

13. The velocity ratio = 5

V. R. = Distance moved by effort/(Distance moved by load)

Efficiency = 80%

Work done by effort = x

Work done by machine = Efficiency × Work done by effort = 0.8 × x

Distance moved by effort, E = V. R. × Distance moved by load, D = 5 × D

Work done by effort = Force × Distance moved = 200×9.81× E

Work done by effort = 1962×E = 1962×E = 1962×5×D

Work done by machine = 1962 × D, when D = 1, we have;

0.8 × 1962×1 = 1569.6 J

Work done by effort = Force × Distance moved

Work done by effort = Force × 5×D = Force × 5 (D = 1)

From the principle of conservation of energy, we have;

Energy is neither created nor destroyed

Therefore

Work done by effort = Force × 5 = 1569.6 J

Force = 1569.6 /5 = 313.92 N.

Assuming that Bernoulli's equation applies, compute the volume of water ΔV that flows across the exit of the pipe in 1.00 s . In

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

discharge rate (Q) = 0.2005 m^{3} / s

Explanation:

if you read the question you would see that some requirements are missing, by using search engines, you can get the complete question as stated below:

Water flows steadily from an open tank as shown in the figure. (Figure 1) The elevation of point 1 is 10.0m , and the elevation of points 2 and 3 is 2.00 m . The cross-sectional area at point 2 is 4.80x10-2m ; at point 3, where the water is discharged, it is 1.60x10-2m. The cross-sectional area of the tank is very large compared with the cross-sectional area of the pipe. Part A Assuming that Bernoulli's equation applies, compute the volume of water DeltaV that flows across the exit of the pipe in 1.00 s . In other words, find the discharge rate \Delta V/Delta t. Express your answer numerically in cubic meters per second.

solution:

time = 1 s

elevation of point 1 (z1) = 10 m

elevation of point 2 (z2) = 2 m

elevation of point 3 (z3) = 2 m

cross section area of point 2 = 4.8 x 10^{2} m

cross section area of point 3 = 1.6 x 10^{2} m

g

acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s^{2}

find the discharge rate at point 3 which is the exit pipe.

discharge rate (Q) = A3 x V3

where A3 is the cross sectional area at point 3 and V3 is the velocity of the fluid and can be gotten by applying Bernoulli's equation below
