Answer:

Hello your question is incomplete attached is the missing diagram and solution

One elevator arrangement includes the passenger car, a counterweight, and two large pulleys, as shown in (Figure 1). Each pulley has a radius of 1.2 m and a moment of inertia of 410 kg⋅m2. The top pulley is driven by a motor. The elevator car plus passengers has a mass of 3000 kg, and the counterweight has a mass of 2600 kg.

a) If the motor is to accelerate the elevator car upward at 1.8 m/s2, how much torque must it generate? Express your answer to two significant figures and include appropriate units.

Answer : 6030 N.m ≈ 6000 N.m

Explanation:

To determine how much torque the motor accelerating at 1.8 m/s^s will generate we will have to determine T1 ( tension generated for upward acceleration in the rope ) and Tg ( tension generated in the rope when there is a counterweight accelerating downwards)

Torque in the pulley (T2) = (T1 - Tg ) r

torque generated by motor = T1 + T2 = 1230 + 4800 = 6030 N.m to two significant figures = 6000 N.m

r = 1.2

a = 1.8

attached below is the remaining part of the solution

zhenek [66]

Answer:

$f=2887.93Hz$

Explanation:

Given data

Length L=2.9 cm=0.029m

Speed of sound v=335 m/s

to find

Fundamental frequency f

Solution

As we know that frequency is given as:

f=v/λ

$f=\frac{v}{4L}\\ f=\frac{335m/s}{4(0.029m)} \\ f=2887.93Hz$

The Henry's law constant for CO2 is 3.6 ✕ 10−2 M/atm at 25°C. What pressure (in atm) of carbon dioxide is needed to maintain a C

xeze [42]

To solve this problem we will use Henry's law. This law states that at a constant temperature, the amount of gas dissolved in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure exerted by that gas on the liquid. Mathematically it is formulated as follows:

$C = K_H*P$

Where,

$K_H$ = Henry's constant for C02 at 25°C is equal to $3.6*10^{-2}M/atm$

C = Gas concentration is 0.19M

Replacing we have,

$0.19 M = (3.6*10^-2 M/atm)*P$

$P = 5.277 atm$

Therefore the pressure of carbon dioxide is 5.277 atm

Suppose an oven's radiation wavelength is 0.125 m. a container with 350.00 g of water was placed in the oven, and the temperatur

ivann1987 [24]

The heat (energy) needed to raise the temperature of the water is given by
$Q=m C_S (T_f - T_i)=(350.0 g)(4.18 J/gC)(80C-20C)=87780 J$

The wavelength of the radiation of the oven is $\lambda=0.125 m$ , so the energy of a single photon of this radiation is
$E=h \frac{c}{\lambda}=(6.6 \cdot 10^{-34}J) \frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{0.125 m}=1.6 \cdot 10^{-24} J$

So, the number of photons required to heat the water is the total energy absorbed by the water divided by the energy of a single photon:
$N= \frac{Q}{E}= \frac{87780 J}{1.6\cdot 10^{-24}J}= 5.5 \cdot 10^{28}$ photons
