The centripetal acceleration is responsible for the artificial gravity because the acceleration of an object moving in constant circular motion causing from net external force is called centripetal acceleration. It defines to the center or seeking the center.

Given the following:

Cylindrical space station diameter           = 275 meters; 137.5 meters for the radius

Standard gravity                                       = 9.80665 m/s²

 

Using the formula:

w² x r =g

w² = g / r

w² = 9.80665 m/s² / 137.5 m

w² = 9.80665 m/s² / 137.5 m

w² = 0.0713 s²

Then take the roots

w = 0.267 this is radians per second / 2 x (3.1416 which is the pi)

w = 0.0424 rps convert to rpm

w = 0.0424 r/s (1minute / 60 seconds)

w = 7.08 x 10⁻⁴ revolutions per minute

A real heat engine operates between temperatures TcTcT_c and ThThT_h. During a certain time, an amount QcQcQ_c of heat is releas
Nookie1986 [14]

The maximum amount of work performed is

W_{max}=\frac{T_H-T_C}{T_C}Q_C

Explanation:

The efficiency of a real heat engine is given by the equation:

\eta = 1-\frac{T_C}{T_H} (1)

where

T_C is the temperature of the cold reservoir

T_H is the temperature of the hot reservoir

However, the efficiency of a real heat engine can be also written as:

\eta = \frac{W_{max}}{Q_H}

where

W_{max} is the maximum work done

Q_H is the heat absorbed from the hot reservoir

Q_H can be written as

Q_H=W_{max}+Q_C

where

Q_Cis the heat released to the cold reservoir

So the previous equation can be also written as

\eta=\frac{W_{max}}{W_{max}+Q_C} (2)

By combining eq.(1) and (2) we get

1-\frac{T_C}{T_H}=\frac{W_{max}}{W_{max}+Q}

And re-arranging the equation and solving for W_{max}, we find

W_{max}=\frac{T_H-T_C}{T_C}Q_C

The highest occupiable floor of any building is in the Sears Tower in Chicago. The elevators of the central tower of the buildin
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

9727160J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Height of elevator rise  = 436m

Force exerted  = 22310N

Unknown:

Work done by the elevator lifting mechanism = ?

Solution:

The work done by a body is the force applied to move a body in a specific direction;

          Work done  = force x distance moved

In this case, the force and distance moved is provided already;

        Work done  = 22310 x 436  = 9727160J

An electric model train is accelerated at a rate of 8 m/s^2 by a 12 N force? What is the
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

m = 1.5 kg

Explanation:

Data:

  • Aceleration (a) = 8 m/s²
  • Force (F) = 12 N
  • Mass (m) = ?

Use formula:

  • \boxed{m = \frac{F}{a}}

Replace in the formula:

  • \boxed{m = \frac{12N}{8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}}

Equate the newtons:

  • \boxed{m = \frac{12kg*\frac{m}{s^{2}}}{8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}}

Simplify m/s²:

  • \boxed{m = \frac{12kg}{8}}

It divides:

  • \boxed{m =1.5kg}

What is the mass of the train?

The mass of the train is <u>1.5 kilograms.</u>
