Answer:

Final Velocity (Vf)= 139.864 ft/s

Time (t)= 4,34 s

Explanation:

This is a free fall problem, to solve it we will apply free  fall concepts:

In a free fall the acceletarion is gravity (g) = 9,81 m/s2, if we convert it to ft/s^2 = g= 32.174 ft/s^2

  • Final velocity is Vf= Vo+ g*t[tex]Vf^{2} = Vo^{2} +2*g*h

where h is height (304 ft in this case).

Vo =0 since the hammer wasn't moving when it stared to fall

Then Vf^2= 0 + 2* 32.174 ft/s^2 *304 ft

          Vf^2= 19,561.8224  ft^2/s^2

          Vf=[sqrt{19561.8224 ft^2/s^2}

          Vf=139.864 ft/s

Time t= (Vf-Vo)/g => (139.864 ft/s-0)/32.174 ft/s^2 = 4.34 sec

Good luck!

return 0;

}

Using Recursive

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

void printStars(int lines);

int main()

{

// prompt the user to enter a number

int lines;

cin>> lines;

printStars(int lines);

return 0;

}

void printStars(int lines)

{

if (lines < 1)

return;

// to print the stars of a particular row

if (i <= lines)

{

cout << "* ";

// recursively print rest of the stars

// of the row

printPatternRecur(lines, i + 1);

}

else

{

// change line

cout << endl;

// print stars

printPatternRecur(lines-1, 1);

}

}

Find the compressibility factor Z for oxygen at 3 MPa and 160 K.
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Z= 0.868

Explanation:

Given that

P= 3 MPa

T = 160 K

We know that

P v= Z R T

P= Pressure

v = specific volume

R= gas constant

T = Absolute temperature

Z=  Compressibility factor

Here specific volume of gas is not given so we assume that specific volume gas

v=0.012\ m^3/kg

We know that for oxygen gas constant

R = 0.259 KJ/kg.K

Now by putting the values

P v = Z R T

3000 x 0.012 = Z x 0.259 x 160

Z= 0.868

So  Compressibility factor is 0.868.
