Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of circular path, r = 5 m

Centripetal acceleration, a=7g\ m/s^2

(a) Let v is the astronaut’s speed. The formula for the centripetal acceleration is given by :

a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}

v=\sqrt{ar}

v=\sqrt{7\times 9.8\times 5}

v = 18.5 m/s

(b) Let T denotes the time period. It is given by :

T=\dfrac{2\pi r}{v}

T=\dfrac{2\pi \times 5}{18.5}

T = 1.69 s

Let N is the number of revolutions. So,

N=\dfrac{60}{1.69}=35.5\ rev/min

So, the number of revolutions per minute is 35.5

(c) T = 1.69 seconds

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

120 miles per hour.

Explanation:

We need to find the time it takes my parents to drive home from the cottage. Since my father drives at 60 miles per hour, and the cottage is 240 miles from our home, and distance = speed × time. So, time = distance/speed = 240 mi/60 mi/h = 4 h.

So, it will take my father 4 hours to drive home from the cottage.

Since I have 2 hours to prepare for the party, the time left for me to drive to the cottage is 4 - 2 hrs = 2 hrs.

So, I'm supposed to drive to the cottage in at most 2 hours.

The speed at which I must drive in this time period is thus,  speed = distance/time = 240 miles/2 hours = 120 miles per hour.

So, I must drive at a minimum speed of 120 miles per hour.

A 6-in-wide polyamide F-1 flat belt is used to connect a 2-in-diameter pulley to drive a larger pulley with an angular velocity
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

a) Fc = 4.15 N, Fi = 435.65 N, (F1)a = 640 N, and F2  = 239.6 N,

b) Ha = 1863.75 N, nfs = 1 , length = 11.8 mm

Explanation:

Given that:

γ= 9.5 kN/m³ = 9500N/m3

b = 6 inches = 0.1524 m

t = 0.0013 mm

d = 2 inches  = 0.0508 m

n = 1750 rpm

H_{nom}=2hp=1491.4W

L = 9 ft = 2.7432 m

Ks = 1.25

g = 9.81 m/s²

a)

w=\gamma b t = 9500* 0.1524*0.0013=1.88N/m

V=\frac{\pi d n}{60} =\pi *0.0508*1750/60=4.65 m/s

F_c=\frac{wV^2}{g}=1.88*4.65^2/9.81=4.15N

(F_1)_a=bF_aC_pC_v=0.1524*6000*0.7*1=640N

T=\frac{H_{nom}n_dK_s}{2\pi n}= \frac{1491*1.25*1}{2*\pi*1750/60}=10.17Nm

F_2=(F_1)_a-\frac{2T}{D}= 640-\frac{2*10.17}{0.0508} =239.6N

F_i=\frac{(F_1)_a+F_2}{2} -F_c=435.65N

b)

H_a=1491*1.25=1863.75W

n_f_s=\frac{H_a}{H_{nom}K_S }=1

dip = \frac{L^2w}{8F_i} =\frac{2.7432*1.88}{435.65}=11.8mm
