Velocity is the speed with a direction and speed does not have a specific direction

Well the difference between velocity and speed would be that velocity is basically speed with a direction with a vector assisting with it... and Speed would be distance traveled... I hoped that this helped. :)<span />

An 877 kg drag race car accelerates from rest to 116 km/h in 0.951 s. What change in momentum does the force produce? Answer in
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

The change in momentum is 28265.71  kg-m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a car, m = 877 kg

Initial velocity of the car, u = 0 (at rest)

Final velocity of the car, v = 116 km/h = 32.23 m/s

Time, t = 0.951 s

We need to find the change in momentum produced by the force. It can be calculated as the difference of final momentum and the initial momentum.

\Delta P=m(v-u)\\\\=877\times (32.23-0)\\\\=28265.71\ kg-m/s

So, the change in momentum is 28265.71  kg-m/s.

Substance A has twice the specific heat capacity as substance B. If 1000 J of heat are added to 1.0 kg of each substance, compar
Mrrafil [7]
Substance A would have a delta T (change in temp) rise 1/2 the rise in substance B.

Q=mc x delta T

Q= heat energy in Joules
m= mass of substance heated or cooled
c= specific heat
ΔT is change in temp.

Solve for change in temp=. Q/mc

Specific heat and mass are not inversely proportional to heat energy input.

Putting into real world scenario of using water to heat a building.

Specific heat of water is 1.
It takes 1 btu to raise one pound of water 1 degF. at a base of 60 degF

Acetone specific heat is .51

So it takes half the amount of heat input to get a 100 degree ΔT, as compared to water.

A mass hanging from a spring is set in motion and its ensuing velocity is given by v (t )equals 2 pi cosine pi t for tgreater th
lianna [129]

Answer:

2(maximum), -2(minimum), -2(maximum).

Explanation:

V(t)= 2πcos πt--------------------------------------------------------------------------------(1).

Therefore, there is a need to integrate v(t) to get S(t).

S(t)= 2×sinπt + C ------------------------------------------------------------------------------(2).

Applying the condition given, we have s(0)= 0.

S(0)= 2sin ×π(0) + C.

Which means that; 0+C= 0. That is; C=0.

S(t)= 2 sin πt.

The mass moves to its highest positions at time,t=half(1/2=.5) and time,t=2.5.

Take note that;  sin(π/2) = sin(5π/2) = 1 .

Also, the mass moves to its lowest position at time,t=(3/2); also, sin(3π/2) = -1.

Therefore, we have that 2 maximum; -2 minimum and -2 maximum.

Determine the maximum shearing stress in a solid shaft of 1.5-in. diameter as it transmits 75 hp at a speed of 1800 rpm. (Round
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

\tau=3.96\ ksi

Explanation:

Given that

d= 1.5 in                      ( 1 in = 0.0254 m)

d= 0.0381 m

P= 75 hp                      ( 1 hp = 745.7 W)

P= 55927.5 W

N= 1800 rpm

We know that power P is given as

P=\dfrac{2\pi N\ T}{60}

T=Torque

N=Speed

55927.5=\dfrac{2\times \pi \times 1800\ T}{60}

T=296.85 N.m

The maximum shear stress is given as

\tau=\dfrac{16 T}{\pi d^3}

\tau=\dfrac{16\times 296.85}{\pi \times 0.0381^3}

\tau=27.35\ MPa

We know that 1 MPa =0.145 ksi

\tau=3.96\ ksi
