A gas fills the right portion of a horizontal cylinder whose radius is 5.33 cm. The initial pressure of the gas is 2.29 x 105 Pa

. A frictionless movable piston separates the gas from the left portion of the cylinder that is evacuated and contains an ideal spring, as the drawing shows. The piston is initially held in place by a pin. The spring is initially unstrained, and the length of the gas-filled portion is 18.9 cm. When the pin is removed and the gas is allowed to expand, the length of the gas-filled chamber doubles. The initial and final temperatures are equal. Determine the spring constant of the spring.

Answer:

k = 5406.88 N/m

Explanation:

Since the initial and final temperatures are constant while the gas expands, the expansion of the gas obeys Boyle's law

Initial gas pressure, P_1 = 2.29 * 10^5 Pa

Let the initial gas volume  V_1 = V

Volume = Length * Area

Since the cross sectional area does not change and the length of the gas-filled chamber is said to double, then the volume also doubles.

V_2 = 2V

The final gas pressure, P_2 will be gotten from the Boyle's law equation

P_1 V_1 = P_2 V_2\\P_2 = \frac{P_1 V_1}{V_2} \\P_2 = \frac{2.29*10^5 * V}{2V}\\P_2 = \frac{2.29*10^5 }{2}\\P_2 = 1.145 *10^5 Pa

The Cross Sectional Area, A = \pi R^2

R = 5.33 cm = 0.0533 m

A = \pi * 0.0533^2 = 0.0089 m²

The force exerted on the piston, F = P₂ A

F = 1.145 * 10⁵ * 0.0089

F = 1021.9 N

To get the spring constant, use Hooke's law

F = k Δx

Where Δx = l₂ - l₁

Δx = 2l - l = l ( since the length of the chamber doubles on expansion)

Δx = 18.9 cm = 0.189 m

F = k Δx

1021.9 = k * 0.189

k = 1021.9/0.189

k = 5406.88 N/m

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

80 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is given by:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time interval it takes for the velocity to change from u to v

For the rocket in this problem,

u = 20,000 m/s

v = 24,000 m/s

t = 55.0 - 5.0 = 50.0 s

Substituting,

a=\frac{24000-20000}{50}=80 m/s^2

Water flows through a horizontal nozzle in steady flow at the rate of 10m3/s. The inlet and outlet diameters are d1 = 0.5m and d2
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

P₁ = 2.215 10⁷ Pa, F₁ = 4.3 106 N,

Explanation:

This problem of fluid mechanics let's start with the continuity equation to find the speed of water output

        Q = A v

        v = Q / A

The area of ​​a circle is

       A = π r² = π d² / 4

Let's look at the speeds at each point

       v₁ = Q / A₁ = Q 4 /π d₁²

       v₁ = 10 4 /π 0.5²

       v₁ = 50.93 m / s

       v₂ = Q / A₂

       v₂ = 10 4 /π 0.25²

       v₂ = 203.72 m / s

Now we can use Bernoulli's equation in the colon

       P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² + ρ g y₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂² + ρ g y₂

Since the tube is horizontal y₁ = y₂. The output pressure is P₂ = Patm = 1.013 10⁵ Pa, let's clear

       P₁ = P2 + ½ rho (v₂² - v₁²)

      P₁ = 1.013 10⁵ + ½ 1000 (203.72² - 50.93²)

      P₁ = 1.013 10⁵ + 2.205 10⁷

      P₁ = 2.215 10⁷ Pa

la definicion de presion es

      P₁ = F₁/A₁

     F₁ = P₁ A₁

     F₁ = 2.215 10⁷ pi d₁²/4

     F₁ = 2.215 10⁷ pi 0.5²/4

     F₁ = 4.3 106 N
