Answer:

Explanation:

CO, carbon monoxide is a toxic gas. It casues asphixiation on people and animals by interfering with hemoglobin, not allowing blood to transport oxygen to the cells in the body.

The normal emissions resulting from the combustion of fussil fuels are CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water). Carbon monoxide is formed by an incomplete combustion of fossil fuels or carbon containing fuels in general, this not only produces toxic gas, but also is an inefficient combustion that wastes energy.

At the instant under consideration, the hydraulic cylinder AB has a length L = 0.75 m, and this length is momentarily increasing

Inessa [10]

Answer:

vB = - 0.176 m/s (↓-)

Explanation:

Given

(AB) = 0.75 m

(AB)' = 0.2 m/s

vA = 0.6 m/s

θ = 35°

vB = ?

We use the formulas

Sin θ = Sin 35° = (OA)/(AB) ⇒ (OA) = Sin 35°*(AB)

⇒ (OA) = Sin 35°*(0.75 m) = 0.43 m

Cos θ = Cos 35° = (OB)/(AB) ⇒ (OB) = Cos 35°*(AB)

⇒ (OB) = Cos 35°*(0.75 m) = 0.614 m

We apply Pythagoras' theorem as follows

(AB)² = (OA)² + (OB)²

We derive the equation

2*(AB)*(AB)' = 2*(OA)*vA + 2*(OB)*vB

⇒ (AB)*(AB)' = (OA)*vA + (OB)*vB

⇒ vB = ((AB)*(AB)' - (OA)*vA) / (OB)

then we have

⇒ vB = ((0.75 m)*(0.2 m/s) - (0.43 m)*(0.6 m/s) / (0.614 m)

⇒ vB = - 0.176 m/s (↓-)

An aircraft increases its speed by 2% in straight and level flight. If the total lift remains constant determine the revised CL

damaskus [11]

Answer:

96.1%

Explanation:

We know that lift force

$F_L=\dfrac{1}{2}C_L\rho AV^2$

------------(1)

Where $C_L$ is the lift force coefficient .

ρ is the density of fluid.

A is the area.

V is the velocity.

Now when speed is increased by 2 % and all other parameter remains constant except $C_L$ .

Let;s take new value of lift force coefficient is $C_L'$ .

$F_L=\dfrac{1}{2}C_L'\rho A(1.02V)^2$

-----------(2)

Now from equation 1 and 2

$C_L\times V^2=C_L'\times1.0404 V^2$

⇒ $C_L'=0.961C_L$

So we can say that revised value of lift force coefficient is 96.1% of original value.
