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

A disk of mass M and radius R rotates at angular velocity ω0. Another disk of mass M and radius r is dropped on top of the rotat
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

\omega = \frac{(R^2\omega_o}{(R^2 + r^2)}

Explanation:

As we know that there is no external torque on the system of two disc

then the angular momentum of the system will remains conserved

So we will have

L_i = L_f

now we have

L_i = (\frac{1}{2}MR^2)\omega_o

also we have

L_f = (\frac{1}{2}MR^2 + \frac{1}{2}Mr^2)\omega

now from above equation we have

(\frac{1}{2}MR^2)\omega_o  = (\frac{1}{2}MR^2 + \frac{1}{2}Mr^2)\omega

now we have

\omega = \frac{MR^2\omega_o}{(MR^2 + Mr^2)}

\omega = \frac{(R^2\omega_o}{(R^2 + r^2)}

Bonus: (It's not that hard, you just have to pay attention to units.) The Saturn V rocket first stage
agasfer [191]

v = 2.45×10^3\:\text{m/s}

Explanation:

Newton's 2nd Law can be expressed in terms of the object's momentum, in this case the expelled exhaust gases, as

F = \dfrac{d{p}}{d{t}} (1)

Assuming that the velocity remains constant then

F = \dfrac{d}{dt}(mv) = v\dfrac{dm}{dt}

Solving for v, we get

v = \dfrac{F}{\left(\frac{dm}{dt}\right)}\;\;\;\;\;\;\;(2)

Before we plug in the given values, we need to convert them first to their appropriate units:

The thrust <em>F</em><em> </em> is

F = 7.5×10^6\:\text{lbs}×\dfrac{4.45\:\text{N}}{1\:\text{lb}} = 3.34×10^7\:\text{N}

The exhaust rate dm/dt is

\dfrac{dm}{dt} = 15\dfrac{T}{s}×\dfrac{2000\:\text{lbs}}{1\:\text{T}}×\dfrac{1\:\text{kg}}{2.2\:\text{lbs}}

\;\;\;\;\;= 1.36×10^4\:\text{kg/s}

Therefore, the velocity at which the exhaust gases exit the engines is

v = \dfrac{F}{\left(\frac{dm}{dt}\right)} = \dfrac{3.34×10^7\:\text{N}}{1.36×10^4\:\text{kg/s}}

\;\;\;= 2.45×10^3\:\text{m/s}

A 50.0-turn circular coil of radius 5.00 cm can be oriented in any direction in a uniform magnetic field having a magnitude of 0
Blababa [14]

Answer:

The maximum torque in the coil is 4.9\times 10^{-3}\ N-m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of turns in the circular coil, N = 50

Radius of coil, r = 5 cm

Magnetic field, B = 0.5 T

Current in coil, I = 25 mA

We need to find the magnitude of the maximum possible torque exerted on the coil. The magnetic torque is given by :

\tau=NIAB\ \sin\theta

For maximum torque, \theta=90^{\circ}

\tau=NIAB\\\\\tau=50\times 25\times 10^{-3}\times \pi (0.05)^2\times 0.5\\\\\tau=4.9\times 10^{-3}\ N-m

So, the maximum torque in the coil is 4.9\times 10^{-3}\ N-m.
