What is the maximum acceleration the belt can have without the crate slipping? express your answer using two significant figures
Montano1993 [528]

To prevent the crate from slipping, the maximum force that the belt can exert on the crate must be equal to the static friction force.


Ff = 0.5 * 16 * 9.8 = 78.4 N

a = 4.9 m/s^2


If acceleration of the belt exceeds the value determined in the previous question, what is the acceleration of the crate?


In this situation, the kinetic friction force is causing the crate to decelerate. So the net force on the crate is 78.4 N minus the kinetic friction force.


Ff = 0.28 * 16 * 9.8 = 43.904 N

Net force = 78.4 – 43.904 = 34.496 N

To determine the acceleration, divide by the mass of the crate.

a = 34.496 ÷ 16 = 2.156 m/s^2

Air enters a turbine operating at steady state with a pressure of 75 Ibf/in.^2, a temperature of 800º R and velocity of 400 ft/s
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

(a) W/m = 49.334 Btu/lb

(b) \frac{E_{d} }{m} = 22.12 Btu/lb

Explanation:

For the given problem, it can be assumed that the system is operating at steady state and the effects of potential energy can be neglected.

(a) Using the thermodynamic table for air.

At the temperature (T_{1})of 800 ºR and pressure (P_{1}) of 75 Ibf/in.^2, we can deduce that:

Specific enthalpy (h_{1}) = 191.81 BTu/lb

Specific entropy (s_{1}) = 0.6956 Btu/(lb.ºR)

At the temperature (T_{2})of 600 ºR and pressure (P_{2}) of 15 Ibf/in.^2, we can deduce that:

Specific enthalpy (h_{2}) = 143.47 BTu/lb

Specific entropy (s_{2}) = 0.6261 Btu/(lb.ºR)

The work done can be calculated using energy rate equation:

\frac{W}{m} = \frac{Q}{m} + (h_{1} - h_{2}) + \frac{V_{1}^{2} - V_{2}^{2}}{2}

Q/m = heat transfer = -2 Btu/lb

V_{1} = 400 ft/s

V_{2} = 100 ft/s

\frac{W}{m} = -2 + (191.81 - 143.47) + \frac{400^{2} - 100^{2}}{2}*[tex]\frac{1}{2*32.2*778}[/tex] = -2 + 48.34 + 29.938 = 49.334 Btu/lb

(b) To calculate the exergy destruction, we will use the equation for exergy rate:

\frac{E_{d} }{m} = [1-\frac{T_{o} }{T_{b} }](\frac{Q}{m}) - \frac{W}{m} + [(h_{1} - h_{2}) -T_{o}(s_{1} - s_{2}) + \frac{V^{2} _{1} - V_{2} ^{2}}{2}]

The equation above is further simplified to:

\frac{Ed}{m} = T_{o}[(s_{2} -s_{1}) - Rln\frac{P_{2} }{P_{1} } - \frac{Q/m}{T_{b} }]

Using a reference temperature (To) = 500 °R

Average surface temperature (Tb = 620°R

\frac{Ed}{m} = 500*[(0.6261 -0.6956) - (1.986/28.97)ln\frac{15 }{75 } - \frac{-2}{620}}]

\frac{E_{d} }{m} = 500*[-0.0695 +0.068688*1.609 +0.003225] = 22.12 Btu/lb

A microwave oven operates at 2.00 ghz . what is the wavelength of the radiation produced by this appliance? express the waveleng
yan [13]
<span>Since frequency and wavelength have inverse relationship. It can be expressed by the equation: ν.λ = c Where, v = frequency of the electromagnetic wave. λ = it's wavelength c = the speed of light in a vacuum. v = 2.00 Ghz x 10^9 Hz / 1 Ghz = 2.00 x 10^9 Hz that means that in one second it covers 2.00 x 10^9 cycles. λ = 3.10^8 m/s / 2.00 x 10^9 /s = 1.25E-10 nanometers</span>

A 5000-lb wrecking ball hangs from a 50-ft cable of density 10 lb/ft attached to a crane. Calculate the work done if the crane l
aniked [119]

Answer:

total work is = 52450 J

Explanation:

given data

mass =  5000-lb

density = 10 lb/ft

height = 50 ft

solution

as we will treat here cable and ball are separate  

and

here work need to lift cable is

w = (10Δy )(9.8 y )  j

and

now summing all segment of cable

so passing limit Δy to 0

so total work need

= \int\limits^{10}_0 {98y} \, dy    

= [49 y^2]^{50}_0

= 2450J

so lifting 5000 lb wrcking 50 m  required additional 5000 + 2450

so total work is = 52450 J
