A spacecraft at rest has moment of inertia of 100 kg-m^2 about an axis of interest. If a 1 newton thruster with a 1 meter moment

arm is fired orthogonal to the axis of interest for 1 minute, how far has the vehicle rotated when the firing is complete?Also, what details of a real system does this question neglect?

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to translational torque, angular torque and the kinematic equations of angular movement with which we will find the angular displacement of the system.

Translational torque can be defined as,

\tau = Fd

Here,

F = Force

d = Distance which the force is applied

\tau = (1N)(1m)

\tau = 1N\cdot m

At the same time the angular torque is defined as the product between the moment of inertia and the angular acceleration, so using the previous value of the found torque, and with the moment of inertia given by the statement, we would have that the angular acceleration is

\tau = I\alpha

\alpha = \frac{\tau}{I}

\alpha = \frac{1N\cdot m}{100kg\cdot m^2}

\alpha = 0.01rad/s^2

Now the angular displacement is

\theta = \omega_0 t + \frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2

Here

\omega_0= Initial angular velocity

t = time

\alpha =Angular acceleration

\theta= Angular displacement

Time is given as 1 minute, in seconds will be

t = 1m = 60s

There is not initial angular velocity, then

\theta= \frac{1}{2}\alpha t^2

Replacing,

\theta= \frac{1}{2}(0.01)(60)^2

\theta = 18rad

The question neglects the effect of gravitational force.

The unit weight of a soil is 14.9kN/m3. The moisture content of the soil is17% when the degree of saturation is 60%. Determine:
Serggg [28]

Answer:

a) 2622.903 N/m^3

b) 1.38233

c)4.878811765

Explanation:

Find the void ratio using the formula:

y = \frac{G_{s}*y_{w} + w*G_{s}*y_{w} }{1+e} ....... Eq1

Here;

G_{s} is specific gravity of soil solids

y_{w} is unit weight of water = 998 kg/m^3

w is the moisture content = 0.17

e is the void ratio

y is the unit weight of soil = 14.9KN/m^3

Saturation Ratio Formula:

w*G_{s} = S*e  ..... Eq2

S is saturation rate

Substitute Eq 2 into Eq 1

y = \frac{(\frac{S*e}{w}) * y_{w} + S*e*y_{w}  }{1+e}

14900 = \frac{3522.352941*e + 598.8*e }{1+e} = \frac{4121.152941*e}{1+e}\\\\ e= 1.38233

Specific gravity of soil solids

G_{s} = \frac{S*e}{w} = \frac{0.6*1.38233}{0.17} = 4.878811765

Saturated Unit Weight

y_{s} = \frac{(G_{s} + e)*y_{w}  }{1+e} \\=\frac{(4.878811765 + 1.38233)*998  }{1+1.38233}\\\\= 2622.902571 N/m^3

A flywheel made of Grade 30 cast iron (UTS = 217 MPa, UCS = 763 MPa, E = 100 GPa, density = 7100 Kg/m, Poisson's ratio = 0.26) h
hram777 [196]

Answer:

N = 38546.82 rpm

Explanation:

D_{1} = 150 mm

A_{1}= \frac{\pi }{4}\times 150^{2}

              = 17671.45 mm^{2}

D_{2} = 250 mm

A_{2}= \frac{\pi }{4}\times 250^{2}

              = 49087.78 mm^{2}

The centrifugal force acting on the flywheel is fiven by

F = M ( R_{2} - R_{1} ) x w^{2} ------------(1)

Here F = ( -UTS x A_{1} + UCS x A_{2} )

Since density, \rho = \frac{M}{V}

                        \rho = \frac{M}{A\times t}

                        M = \rho \times A\times tM = 7100 \times \frac{\pi }{4}\left ( D_{2}^{2}-D_{1}^{2} \right )\times t

                        M = 7100 \times \frac{\pi }{4}\left ( 250^{2}-150^{2} \right )\times 37

                        M = 8252963901

∴ R_{2} - R_{1} = 50 mm

∴ F = 763\times \frac{\pi }{4}\times 250^{2}-217\times \frac{\pi }{4}\times 150^{2}

  F = 33618968.38 N --------(2)

Now comparing (1) and (2)

33618968.38 = 8252963901\times 50\times \omega ^{2}

∴ ω = 4036.61

We know

\omega = \frac{2\pi N}{60}

4036.61 = \frac{2\pi N}{60}

∴ N = 38546.82 rpm

1. Renewable Resources  = (Renewable means you can keep making it) =  resources that can be replenished (such as trees)

2. Nonrenewable Resources  =  ( Nonrenewable means it can't be made once it is used up) = resources that are gone once they are used (such as fossil fuels)

3. Producer  =  ( produces something) = person who makes goods or provides services

4. Consumer  = ( uses something) =   person whose wants are satisfied by using goods and services

5. Allocate  = ( put someplace) =   distribute

6. Choice =  option
