The location of tests affect the performance of a catapult depending on the length of the arm.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A ball from a catapult, will travel a longer distance by increasing the length of the arm. Using the catapult, if the arm is extended to different lengths the wooden ball how far it is thrown can be observed.

This shows that extending the arm length does increase the distance thrown. To shoot a far distance (example for sideways) you need to the pebble sideways and up. By doing this, it can travel a longer distance

The specific gravity of a substance that has mass of 10 kg and occupies a volume of 0.02 m^3 is a) 0.5 b) 1.5 c) 2.5 d) 3.5 e) n
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Specific gravity is 0.5 so option (a) is correct option

Explanation:

We have given mass of substance m =10 kg

Volume V=0.02m^3

Density of substance is given by Density\ d=\frac{mass}{volume}=\frac{10}{0.02}=500kg/m^3

Specific gravity is given by specific\ gravity=\frac{density\ of\ substance}{density\ f\ water}=\frac{500}{1000}=0.5

So option (a) is correct option

Steam flows steadily through an adiabatic turbine. The inlet conditions of the steam are 10 MPa, 450°C, and 80 m/s, and the exit
8090 [49]

Answer:

a) The change in Kinetic energy, KE = -1.95 kJ

b) Power output, W = 10221.72 kW

c) Turbine inlet area, A_1 = 0.0044 m^2

Explanation:

a) Change in Kinetic Energy

For an adiabatic steady state flow of steam:

KE = \frac{V_2^2 - V_1^2}{2} \\.........(1)

Where Inlet velocity,  V₁ = 80 m/s

Outlet velocity, V₂ = 50 m/s

Substitute these values into equation (1)

KE = \frac{50^2 - 80^2}{2} \\

KE = -1950 m²/s²

To convert this to kJ/kg, divide by 1000

KE = -1950/1000

KE = -1.95 kJ/kg

b) The power output, w

The equation below is used to represent a  steady state flow.

q - w = h_2 - h_1 + KE + g(z_2 - z_1)

For an adiabatic process, the rate of heat transfer, q = 0

z₂ = z₁

The equation thus reduces to :

w = h₁ - h₂ - KE...........(2)

Where Power output, W = \dot{m}w..........(3)

Mass flow rate, \dot{m} = 12 kg/s

To get the specific enthalpy at the inlet, h₁

At P₁ = 10 MPa, T₁ = 450°C,

h₁ = 3242.4 kJ/kg,

Specific volume, v₁ = 0.029782 m³/kg

At P₂ = 10 kPa, h_f = 191.81 kJ/kg, h_{fg} = 2392.1 kJ/kg, x₂ = 0.92

specific enthalpy at the outlet, h₂ = h_1 + x_2 h_{fg}

h₂ = 3242.4 + 0.92(2392.1)

h₂ = 2392.54 kJ/kg

Substitute these values into equation (2)

w = 3242.4 - 2392.54 - (-1.95)

w = 851.81 kJ/kg

To get the power output, put the value of w into equation (3)

W = 12 * 851.81

W = 10221.72 kW

c) The turbine inlet area

A_1V_1 = \dot{m}v_1\\\\A_1 * 80 = 12 * 0.029782\\\\80A_1 = 0.357\\\\A_1 = 0.357/80\\\\A_1 = 0.0044 m^2

Without motorcycle riders are at risk of severe injury in a crash ?
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

The correct option is;

A. proper protection

Explanation:

Motorcycle riders ride the motorcycle while at some level of speed while  having the entire body exposed to be a major part of any collision.

Injuries sustained from motorcycle accidents are several times more severe than injuries sustained by occupants of a car that is fully protected by the metallic panel in the same and even more serious accident scenarios

Hence, motorcycle riders require adequate protection by putting on available motorcyclist safety gear

Therefore, to reduce the risk of severe injury n a crash, motorcycle riders require proper protection.
