A heat engine is coupled with a dynamometer. The length of the load arm is 900 mm. The spring balance reading is 16. Applied wei

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

P = 80.922 KW

Explanation:

Given data;

Length of load arm is 900 mm = 0.9 m

Spring balanced read 16 N

Applied weight is 500 N

Rotational speed is 1774 rpm

we know that power is given as

$P = T\times \omega$

T Torque = (w -s) L = (500 - 16)0.9 = 435.6 Nm

$\omega$ angular speed $=\frac{2 \pi N}{60}$

Therefore Power is

$P =\frac{435.6 \time 2 \pi \times 1774}{60} = 80922.65 watt$

P = 80.922 KW

Answer:

Explanation:

The given equation is :

$\frac{d^{2}y }{dx^{2} } + sin(3y) \frac{dy}{dt} + y = t\frac{df}{dt} + f$

About what thickness of aluminum is needed to stop a beam of (a) 2.5-MeV electrons, (b) 2.5-MeV protons, and (c) 10-MeV alpha pa

Nana76 [90]

The thickness of aluminium needed to stop the beam electrons, protons and alpha particles at the given dfferent kinetic energies is 1.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ m.

<h3>Thickness of the aluminum</h3>

The thickness of the aluminum can be determined using from distance of closest approach of the particle.

$K.E = \frac{2KZe^2}{r}$

where;

Z is the atomic number of aluminium = 13
e is charge
r is distance of closest approach = thickness of aluminium
k is Coulomb's constant = 9 x 10⁹ Nm²/C²

<h3>For 2.5 MeV electrons</h3>

$r = \frac{2KZe^2}{K.E} \\\\r = \frac{2 \times 9\times 10^9 \times 13\times (1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{2.5 \times 10^6 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}} \\\\r = 1.5 \times 10^{-14} \ m$

<h3>For 2.5 MeV protons</h3>

Since the magnitude of charge of electron and proton is the same, at equal kinetic energy, the thickness will be same. r = 1.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ m.

<h3>For 10 MeV alpha-particles</h3>

Charge of alpah particle = 2e

$r = \frac{2KZe^2}{K.E} \\\\r = \frac{2 \times 9\times 10^9 \times 13\times (2 \times 1.6\times 10^{-19})^2}{10 \times 10^6 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}} \\\\r = 1.5 \times 10^{-14} \ m$

Thus, the thickness of aluminium needed to stop the beam electrons, protons and alpha particles at the given dfferent kinetic energies is 1.5 x 10⁻¹⁴ m.
