What is your acceleration while sitting in your chair. the latitude of corvallis is 44.4˚.?

1 answer:

8 0

<span>You can start with the equations you know

a=v^2/r = (2pi*r/T)^2/r = 4pi^2r/T^2

Radius of earth (R) = 6378.1 km
Time in one day (T) = 86400 seconds
Latitude = 44.4 degrees

If you draw a circle and have the radius going out at a 44.4 degree angle above the center you can then find the r.

r=Rcos(44.4)
r=6378.1cos(44.4)
r= 4556.978198 km or 4556978 m

Now you can plug this value into the acceleration equation from above...

a= 1.8*10^8/7.47*10^9
a= .0241 m/s^2 </span>

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

ΔL = L0 C ΔT

We need to find C the constant of expansivity

C = ΔL / (L0 ΔT)

C = .96 / (15.04 * 65) = 9.82 * 10^-4 / deg C

Answer:

Explanation:

initial velocity u = 32.7 m /s

final velocity v = 50.3 m /s

displacement s = 44500 m

acceleration a = ?

v² = u² + 2 a s

50.3² = 32.7² + 2 x a x 44500

2530.09 = 1069.29 + 89000a

a .016 m /s²

time taken t = ?

v = u + at

50.3 = 32.7 + .016 t

t = 1100 s

A flow is isentropically expanded to supersonic speeds in a convergent-divergent nozzle. The reservoir and exit pressures are 1.

Kamila [148]

Answer:

Ae/A* = 1.115

Explanation:

Let the reservoir pressure be $p_0$

Let the exit pressure be $p_e$

Ratio of reservoir pressure and exit pressure

$\frac{p_o}{p_e} = \frac{1}{0.3143}$

= 3.182

For the above value of pressure ratio

Obtain the area ratio from the isentropic flow table

Ae/A* = 1.115

The value of pressure ratio is Ae/A* = 1.115
