A skydiver jumps from an airplane and falls freely for 5 seconds. If the sky diver's velocity increases by 49 m/s during that ti

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

   =    (49 m/s) / (5 seconds)

   = (49 / 5) m/s / s

   =    9.8 m/s²

This problem follows up on a discussion from lecture. A wind turbine with an efficiency of 45% for converting wind energy into e

Volgvan

Answer:

4.1 m

Explanation:

10 kW = 10000 W

20mi/h = 20*1.6 km/mi = 32 km/h = 32 * 1000 (m/km) *(1/3600) hr/s = 8.89 m/s

The power yielded by the wind turbine can be calculated using the following formula

$P = \frac{1}{2} \rho v^3 A C_p$

where $\rho = 1.2 kg/m^3$ is the air density, v = 8.89 m/s is the wind speed, A is the swept area and $C_p = 0.45$ is the efficiency

$10000 = 0.5 * 1.2 * 8.89^3 * A * 0.45$

$10000 = 190A$

$A = 10000 / 190 = 52.7 m^2$

The swept area is a circle with radius r being the blade length

$\pi r^2 = A = 52.7$

$r^2 = 52.7 / \pi = 16.79$

$r = \sqrt{16.79} = 4.1 m$

A planetâs moon revolves around the planet with a period of 39 Earth days in an approximately circular orbit of radius of 4.8Ã10

Alchen [17]

Answer:

v = 895 m/s

Explanation:

Time period is given as 39 Earth Days

$T = 39 days \times 24 hr \times 3600 s$

$T = 3369600 s$

now the radius of the orbit is given as

$r = 4.8 \times 10^8 m$

so the total path length is given as

$L = 2 \pi r$

$L = 2\pi (4.8 \times 10^8)$

$L = 3.015 \times 10^9$

now the speed will be given as

$v = \frac{L}{T}$

$v = \frac{3.015 \times 10^9}{3369600}$

$v = 895 m/s$

Explain the working and performance of a centrifugal clutch with a sketch

timama [110]

a centrifugal clutch works, as the name suggests, through centrifugal force. ... The rotation of the hub forces the shoes or flyweights outwards until they come into contact with the clutch drum, the friction material transmits the torque from the flyweights to the drum. The drive is then connected
