The height of the Washington Monument is measured to be 170 m on a day when its temperature is 35.0°C. What will the change in i

ts height be on a day when its temperature fails to -18.0°C? Although the monument is made of limestone, take the thermal coefficient of expansion to be that of marble.

Answer:

The deformation is 0.088289 m

The final height of the monument is 170-0.088289 = 169.911702 m

Explanation:

Thermal coefficient of marble varies between (5.5 - 14.1) ×10⁻⁶/K = α

So, let us take the average value

(5.5+14.1)/2 = 9.8×10⁻⁶ /K

Change in temperature = 35-(-18) = 53 K = ΔT

Original length = 170 m = L

Linear thermal expansion

\frac{\Delta L}{L} = \alpha\Delta T\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=\frac{\alpha\Delta T}{L}\\\Rightarrow \Delta L=9.8\times 10^{-6}\times 53\times 170

The deformation is 0.088289 m

The final height of the monument is 170-0.088289 = 169.911702 m (subtraction because of cooling)

Calculate the work done by the cyclist when his power output is 200 W for 1800 seconds.
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

3.6 × 10^5 J

Explanation:

Work Done = Energy

Energy = Power × time

Energy = 200 × 1800

= 360000 J

W =

3.6 \times 10 {}^{5} j

The lawn sprinkler consists of four arms that rotate in the horizontal plane. The diameter of each nozzle is 8 mm, and the water
sashaice [31]

Answer: the constant angular velocity of the arms is 86.1883 rad/sec

Explanation:

First we calculate the linear velocity of the single sprinkler;

Area of the nozzle = π/4 × d²

given that d = 8mm = 8 × 10⁻³

Area of the nozzle = π/4 × (8 × 10⁻³)²

A = 5.024 × 10⁻⁵ m²

Now total discharge is dived into 4 jets so discharge for single jet will be;

Q_single = Q / n = 0.006 / 4 = 1.5 × 10⁻³ m³/sec

So using continuity equation ;

Q_single = A × V_single

V_single = Q_single/A

we substitute

V_single = (1.5 × 10⁻³) / (5.024 × 10⁻⁵)

V_single = 29.8566 m/s

Now resolving the forces as shown in the second image,

Vt = Vcos30°

Vt = 29.8566 × cos30°

Vt = 25.8565 m/s

Finally we calculate the angular velocity;

Vt = rω

ω_single = Vt / r

from the given diagram, radius is 300mm = 0.3m

so we substitute

ω_single = 25.8565 / 0.3

ω_single = 86.1883 rad/sec

Therefore the constant angular velocity of the arms is 86.1883 rad/sec
