Answer:
work will be positive when it is under polytropic expansion process
Explanation:
It states a polytropic process with n equal to 1.67. there is a polytropic expansion that mean work is positive and if it was polytropic compression then it would be negative
Also work during the process of polytropic is given as
the work will be positive when it is under the polytropic expansion process
Answer:
<em>a) 4.51 lbf-s^2/ft</em>
<em>b) 65.8 kg</em>
<em>c) 645 N</em>
<em>d) 23.8 lb</em>
<em>e) 65.8 kg</em>
<em></em>
Explanation:
Weight of the man on Earth = 145 lb
a) Mass in slug is...
32.174 pound = 1 slug
145 pound = slug
= 145/32.174 = <em>4.51 lbf-s^2/ft</em>
b) Mass in kg is...
2.205 pounds = 1 kg
145 pounds = kg
= 145/2.205 = <em>65.8 kg</em>
c) Weight in Newton = mg
where
m is mass in kg
g is acceleration due to gravity on Earth = 9.81 m/s^2
Weight in Newton = 65.8 x 9.81 = <em>645 N</em>
d) If on the moon with acceleration due to gravity of 5.30 ft/s^2,
1 m/s^2 = 3.2808 ft/s^2
m/s^2 = 5.30 ft/s^2
= 5.30/3.2808 = 1.6155 m/s^2
weight in Newton = mg = 65.8 x 1.6155 = 106
weight in pounds = 106/4.448 = <em>23.8 lb</em>
e) The mass of the man does not change on the moon. It will therefore have the same value as his mass here on Earth
mass on the moon = <em>65.8 kg</em>
Answer:
44.95 tonnes
Explanation:
According to principle of buoyancy the object will just sink when it's weight is more than the weight of the liquid it displaces
It is given that empty weight of box = 40 tons
Let the mass of the stones to be placed be = M tonnes
Thus the combined mass of box and stones = (40+M) tonnes..........(i)
Since the box will displace water equal to it's volume V we have
Now the weight of water displaced = is density of water = 1000kg/
Thus weight of liquid displaced = ..................(ii)
Equating i and ii we get
40 + M = 84.95
thus Mass of stones = 44.95 tonnes
