Physics

Butoxors [25]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

An object in equilibrium has a net force of zero  

Static equilibrium describes an object at  rest having equal and balanced forces acting upon it.

Dynamic equilibrium describes an object in  motion having equal and balanced forces acting upon it.

Explanation:

An object is said to be in equilibrium when a net force of zero is acting on it. When this condition occurs, the object will have zero acceleration, according to Newton's second law:

F=ma

where F is the net force, m the mass of the object, a the acceleration. Since F=0, then a=0. As a result, we have two possible situations:

- If the object was at rest, then it will keep its state of rest. In this case, we talk about static equilibrium.

- If the object was moving, it will keep moving with constant velocity. In this case, we talk about dynamic equilibrium.

White raven [17]

Answer:

\frac{\dot Q}{A} =20.129\ W.m^{-2}

T_1=27.58\ ^{\circ}C & T_2=2.41875\ ^{\circ}C

Explanation:

Given:

  • interior temperature of box, T_i=30^{\circ}C
  • height of the walls of box, h=3\ m
  • thickness of each layer of bi-layered plywood, x_p=1.25\ cm=0.0125\ m
  • thermal conductivity of plywood, k_p=0.104\ W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}
  • thickness of sandwiched Styrofoam, x_s=5\ cm=0.05\ m
  • thermal conductivity of Styrofoam, k_s=0.04\ W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}
  • exterior temperature, T_o=0^{\circ}C

<u>From the Fourier's law of conduction:</u>

\dot Q=\frac{dT}{(\frac{x}{kA}) }

\dot Q=\frac{dT}{R_{th} } ....................................(1)

<u>Now calculating the equivalent thermal resistance for conductivity using electrical analogy:</u>

R_{th}=R_p+R_s+R_p

R_{th}=\frac{x_p}{k_p.A}+\frac{x_s}{k_s.A}+\frac{x_p}{k_p.A}

R_{th}=\frac{1}{A} (\frac{x_p}{k_p}+\frac{x_s}{k_s}+\frac{x_p}{k_p})

R_{th}=\frac{1}{A} (\frac{0.0125}{0.104}+\frac{0.05}{0.04}+\frac{0.0125}{0.104})

R_{th}=\frac{1.4904}{A} .....................(2)

Putting the value from (2) into (1):

\dot Q=\frac{30-0}{\frac{1.4904}{A} }

\dot Q=\frac{30\ A}{1.4904}

\frac{\dot Q}{A} =20.129\ W.m^{-2} is the heat per unit area of the wall.

The heat flux remains constant because the area is constant.

<u>For plywood-Styrofoam interface from inside:</u>

\frac{\dot Q}{A} =k_p.\frac{T_i-T_1}{x_p}

20.129=0.104\times \frac{30-T_1}{0.0125}

T_1=27.58\ ^{\circ}C

&<u>For Styrofoam-plywood interface from inside:</u>

\frac{\dot Q}{A} =k_s.\frac{T_1-T_2}{x_s}

20.129=0.04\times \frac{27.58-T_2}{0.05}

T_2=2.41875\ ^{\circ}C

Each driver has mass 79.0 kg. Including the masses of the drivers, the total masses of the vehicles are 800 kg for the car and 4
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Force exerted on the car driver by the seatbelt = 8139.4 N = 8.14 kN

Force exerted on the truck driver by the seatbelt = 1628.2 N = 1.63 kN

It is evident that the driver of the smaller vehicle has it worse. The car driver is in way more danger in this perfectly inelastic head-on collision with a bigger vehicle (the truck).

Explanation:

First of, we calculate the velocity of the vehicles after collision using the law of conservation of Momentum

Momentum before collision = Momentum after collision

Since the collision of the two vehicles was described as a head-on collision, for the sake of consistent convention, we will take the direction of the velocity of the bigger vehicle (the truck) as the positive direction and the direction of the car's velocity automatically is the negative direction.

Velocity of the truck before collision = 6.80 m/s

Velocity of the car before collision = -6.80 m/s

Let the velocity of the inelastic unit of vehicles after collision be v

Momentum before collision = (4000)(6.80) + (800)(-6.80) = 27200 - 5440 = 21,760 kgm/s

Momentum after collision = (4000 + 800)(v) = (4800v) kgm/s

Momentum before collision = Momentum after collision

21760 = 4800v

v = (21760/4800)

v = 4.533 m/s (in the direction of the big vehicle (the truck)

So, we then apply Newton's second law of motion which explains that the magnitude change in momentum is equal to the magnitude of impulse.

|Impulse| = |Change in momentum|

But Impulse = (Force exerted on each driver by the seatbelt) × (collision time) = (F×t)

Change in momentum = (Momentum after collision) - (Momentum before collision)

So, for the driver of the truck

Initial velocity = 6.80 m/s (the driver moves with the velocity of the truck)

Final velocity = 4.533 m/s

Change in momentum of the truck driver = (79)(6.80) - (79)(4.533) = 179.1 kgm/s

(F×t) = 179.1

F × 0.110 = 179.1

F = (179.1/0.11)

F = 1628.2 N = 1.63 kN

So, for the driver of the car

Initial velocity = -6.80 m/s (the driver moves with the velocity of the car)

Final velocity = 4.533 m/s

Change in momentum of the car driver = (79)(-6.80) - (79)(4.533) = -895.3 kgm/s

(F×t) = |-895.3|

F × 0.110 = 895.3

F = (895.3/0.11)

F = 8139.4 N = 8.14 kN

Hope this Helps!!!
