Answer:

pressure= force/area

A solid resting on a horizontal surfaceexerts a normal contactforce equals to its weight. The pressure of the solid on the surface depends on the area of contact. (b) the area of contact between the two surfaces. The greater the force or the smaller the area the greater the pressure.

A special rocket can produce 7.66 ✕ 10^5 N of instantaneous thrust with an exhaust speed of 3.05 ✕ 103 m/s in vacuum. What mass

adelina 88 [10]

The mass of fuel the engine burn each second to produce a thrust of 7.66×10⁵ N is 2.5×10² kg/s.

Mass can be defined as the quantity of matter contained in a body. The S.I unit of mass is kilogram(kg)

To calculate the mass the engine burns each seconds, we use the formula below.

Formual:

M = T/v............. Equation

Where:

M = Mass per seconds of the rocket
T = Thrust
v = Velocity

From the question,

Given:

T = 7.66×10⁵ N
v = 3.05×10³ m/s

Substitute these values into equation 1

M = (7.66×10⁵)/(3.05×10³)
M = 2.5×10² kg/s

Hence, the mass of fuel burned in each second is 2.5×10² kg/s.

If there are 50 people per square kilometer in a city, and the area of the city is 1.5 × 10 square kilometers. What is the total

qaws [65]

Answer:

750 people

Explanation:

From the question,

Number of people in the city = population density×Area of the city

N = D×A.......................... Equagtion 1

Where N = Number of people in the city, D = population density, A = Area of the city.

Given: D = 50 people per square kilometer, A = 1.5×10 square kilometer.

Substitute into equation 1

N = 50(1.5×10)

N = 750 people.

Hence the total number of people in the city is 750 people.

Several springs are connected as illustrated below in (a). Knowing the individual springs stiffness k1 = 20 N/m, k2 = 30 N/m, k3

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The equivalent stiffness of the string is 8.93 N/m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Spring stiffness is

$k_{1}=20\ N/m$

$k_{2}=30\ N/m$

$k_{3}=15\ N/m$

$k_{4}=20\ N/m$

$k_{5}=35\ N/m$

According to figure,

$k_{2}$ and $k_{3}$ is in series

We need to calculate the equivalent

Using formula for series

$\dfrac{1}{k}=\dfrac{1}{k_{2}}+\dfrac{1}{k_{3}}$

$k=\dfrac{k_{2}k_{3}}{k_{2}+k_{3}}$

Put the value into the formula

$k=\dfrac{30\times15}{30+15}$

$k=10\ N/m$

k and $k_{4}$ is in parallel

We need to calculate the k'

Using formula for parallel

$k'=k+k_{4}$

Put the value into the formula

$k'=10+20$

$k'=30\ N/m$

$k_{1}$ ,k' and $k_{5}$ is in series

We need to calculate the equivalent stiffness of the spring

Using formula for series

$k_{eq}=\dfrac{1}{k_{1}}+\dfrac{1}{k'}+\dfrac{1}{k_{5}}$

Put the value into the formula

$k_{eq}=\dfrac{1}{20}+\dfrac{1}{30}+\dfrac{1}{35}$

$k_{eq}=8.93\ N/m$

Hence, The equivalent stiffness of the string is 8.93 N/m.
