Answer:

Describing a Force:

To fully describe the force acting upon an object, you must describe both its magnitude and direction. Thus, 10 Newtons of force is not a complete description of the force acting on an object. 10 Newtons, downwards is a complete description of the force acting upon an object.

A thin-walled cylindrical pressure vessel is subjected to an internal gauge pressure, p=75 psip=75 psi. It had a wall thickness
Mekhanik [1.2K]

To solve this problem we must apply the concept related to the longitudinal effort and the effort of the hoop. The effort of the hoop is given as

\sigma_h = \frac{Pd}{2t}

Here,

P = Pressure

d = Diameter

t = Thickness

At the same time the longitudinal stress is given as,

\sigma_l = \frac{Pd}{4t}

The letters have the same meaning as before.

Then he hoop stress would be,

\sigma_h = \frac{Pd}{2t}

\sigma_h = \frac{75 \times 8}{2\times 0.25}

\sigma_h = 1200psi

And the longitudinal stress would be

\sigma_l = \frac{Pd}{4t}

\sigma_l = \frac{75\times 8}{4\times 0.25}

\sigma_l = 600Psi

The Mohr's circle is attached in a image to find the maximum shear stress, which is given as

\tau_{max} = \frac{\sigma_h}{2}

\tau_{max} = \frac{1200}{2}

\tau_{max} = 600Psi

Therefore the maximum shear stress in the pressure vessel when it is subjected to this pressure is 600Psi

What is the vertical acceleration of a paper airplane that is launched horizontally with an initial velocity of 2.3 m/s?
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

<em>The vertical acceleration is -9.81 m/s^2</em>

Explanation:

When a body is projected, the body experiences an acceleration in the vertical axis that is proportional to the acceleration due to gravity of the earth, which is equal to 9.81 m/s^2. In this case, the acceleration acts to stop the vertical motion of the paper plane, and hence is a deceleration, which explains the negative vertical acceleration.

ad for the distance from the sun tothe earth is 1.5 x 10"m. how long does it take for light from ths sun to reach the eath? give
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

About 8.3 minutes

Explanation:

Use the formula for velocity as the distance covered by the light divided the time it takes: [tex]velocity=\frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

Use the information about the speed of light in vacuum: 300000000 \frac{m}{s} = 3*10^{8} \frac{m}{s}

and the information you are given regarding the distance between Sun and Earth: 1.5 * 10^{11} m

to solve the first velocity equation for the unknown time "t":

velocity=\frac{distance}{time} \\3*10^8\frac{m}{s} =\frac{1.5*10^11 m}{t} \\t=\frac{1.5*10^11 }{3*10^8} s= 500 s

we can convert second into minutes by dividing by 60: 500 s = 500/60 minutes = 8.3333... minutes
