A steel railroad track has a length of 23 m when the temperature is 7◦C. What is the increase in the length of the rail on a hot

day when the temperature is 30 ◦C? The linear expansion coefficient of steel is 11 × 10−6 ( ◦C)−1 . Answer in units of m.

Answer:

5.82 mm

Explanation:

length of the track, L = 23 m

Initial temperature, T = 7 °C

final temperature, T' = 30 °C

Coefficient of linear expansion, α = 11 x 10^-6 / °C

Let the increase in length of the track on the hot day is ΔL.

use the formula of the linear expansion

ΔL = L x α x ΔT

ΔL = L x α x (T' - T)

ΔL = 23 x 11 x 10^-6 x (30 - 7)

ΔL = 5.82 x 10^-3 m

ΔL = 5.82 mm

Thus, the increase in the length of the track is 5.82 mm.

A spring of spring constant k is attached to a support at the bottom of a ramp that makes an angle θ with the horizontal. A bloc
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

x=\frac {kd^{2}}{2(mgsin\theta +\mu_{k}mgcos\theta)}

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of energy

Energy lost  by the spring, W=Kinetic energy gained, KE+Potential energy gained, PE+Work done by friction, Fr

0.5kd^{2}=0.5mv^{2}+mgLsin\theta+\mu_{k}mgcos\theta x

x(mgsin\theta+\mu_{k}mgcos\theta)=0.5kd^{2}

x=\frac {kd^{2}}{2(mgsin\theta +\mu_{k}mgcos\theta)}

The required distance from A to B is x=\frac {kd^{2}}{2(mgsin\theta +\mu_{k}mgcos\theta)}

In a series lrc circuit, the frequency at which the circuit is at resonance is f0. If you double the resistance, the inductance,
taurus [48]

When you double capacitance and inductance, the new resonance frequency becomes f/2.

  • Resonance frequency:

The resonance frequency of RLC series circuit, is the frequency at which the capacity reactance is equal to inductive reactance.

It can also be defined as the natural frequency of an object where it tends to vibrate at a higher amplitude.

Xc = Xl

which gives the value for resonance frequency:

f = \frac{1}{2\pi \sqrt{LC} }

where;

f is the resonance frequency

L is the inductance

C is the capacitance

When you double capacitance and inductance, the new resonance frequency becomes;

f' = \frac{1}{2\pi \sqrt{2L2C} }

f' = \frac{1}{2\pi \sqrt{4LC} }

f' = \frac{1}{\pi \sqrt{LC} }\frac{1}{2}

f' = \frac{1}{2} f

Thus from above,

When you double capacitance and inductance, the new resonance frequency becomes f/2.

12) Water flows through a horizontal pipe of cross-sectional area 10.0 cm2 at a pressure of 0.250 atm with a flow rate is 1.00 L
masha68 [24]

Answer:

The pressure after passing the valve is 23,8 [Kpa] ( 0,234 atm) and the pressure drop is about 1,53 [Kpa]

Explanation:

We need to use the formula of bernoulli, in the attached image we can see the fluid throw the pipe, we also can calculate the velocity inside the pipe using the flow rate and the cross sectional area.

For this case, we don't use the elevation difference and therefore those terms can be cancelled.

When the area has reduced the velocity of the fluid is increased but there is a drop pressure through the valve.
