Hey guys.. ans me
1 answer:
The time taken by the swimmer was 1 hour.
Why?
Since the swimmer is maintaining an angle of 150° while he was swimming, there were two components of the speed (horizontal and vertical). If we want to calculate the time taken by him to cross the river, we need to calculate the vertical speed and consider that the flow's speed is compensated by his horizontal speed.
We can calculate both components of the speed using the following formula:
Now, calculating we have:
Therefore, we have that the horizontal speed is compesating the flow's speed while his vertical speed is used to cross the river which is 1 Km wide.
Hence, we have that the tame taken is:
Have a nice day!

Answer:
a) - 72.5°c
b) pressure = 3625.13 Pa
c) density = 0.063 kg/m^3
d) it is a subsonic aircraft
Explanation:
a) Determine Temperature
Temperature at 19.5 km ( 19500 m )
T = -131 + ( 0.003 * altitude in meters )
= -131 + ( 0.003 * 19500 ) = - 72.5°c
b) Determine pressure and density at 19.5 km altitude
Given :
Po (atmospheric pressure at sea level ) = 101kpa
R ( gas constant of air ) = 0.287 KJ/Kgk
T = -72.5°c ≈ 200.5 k
pressure = 3625.13 Pa
hence density = 0.063 kg/m^3
attached below is the remaining part of the solution
C) determine if the aircraft is subsonic or super sonic
Velocity ( v ) = =
= 283.8 m/s
hence it is a subsonic aircraft
Answer:
536,904 J/s
Explanation:
The energy output from motor is the input energy in the machine.
We know that efficiency is percentage energy ouput to energy input, and expressed as
Where n and E represent efficiency and energy respectively, subscripts o and i represent output and input respectively. Since for the machine we have the input energy then the output will be the product of efficiency and input energy
Energy output=0.6*1200 hp=720 hp
Converting hp to J/s we multiply by 745.7
Energy is 720*745.7=536,904 J/s
