At what point is the northern hemisphere pointed farthest away from the sun?

1 answer:

7 0

<span>Well, It is the aphelion point, When the Earth is farthest away from the Sun, when the Northern Hemisphere is warm. the Earth is closest to the Sun, or at the perihelion, 2 weeks after the June Solstice, when the Northern Hemisphere is enjoying warm summer months. Well this kind of weather is very nice.</span>

Steam enters a well-insulated nozzle at 200 lbf/in.2 , 500F, with a velocity of 200 ft/s and exits at 60 lbf/in.2 with a velocit

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

$386.2^{\circ}F$

Explanation:

We are given that

$P_1=200lbf/in^2$

$P_2=60lbf/in^2$

$v_1=200ft/s$

$v_2=1700ft/s$

$T_1=500^{\circ}F$

$Q=0$

$C_p=1BTU/lb^{\circ}F$

We have to find the exit temperature.

By steady energy flow equation

$h_1+v^2_1+Q=h_2+v^2_2$

$C_pT_1+\frac{P^2_1}{25037}+Q=C_pT_2+\frac{P^2_2}{25037}$

$1BTU/lb=25037ft^2/s^2$

Substitute the values

$1\times 500+\frac{(200)^2}{25037}+0=1\times T_2+\frac{(1700)^2}{25037}$

$500+1.598=T_2+115.4$

$T_2=500+1.598-115.4$

$T_2=386.2^{\circ}F$

Electrical systems are governed by Ohm’s law, which states that V = IR, where V is the voltage, I is the current, and R is the r

ella [17]

Answer:

$\frac{dR(t)}{dt}=0.06\Omega$

Explanation:

Since $R(t)=\frac{V}{I(t)}$ , we calculate the resistance rate by deriving this formula with respect to time:

$\frac{dR(t)}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}(\frac{V}{I(t)})=V\frac{d}{dt}(\frac{1}{I(t)})$

Deriving what is left (remember that $(\frac{1}{f(x)})'=-\frac{1}{f(x)^2}f'(x)$ ):

$\frac{d}{dt}(\frac{1}{I(t)})=-\frac{1}{I(t)^2}\frac{dI(t)}{dt}$

So we have:

$\frac{dR(t)}{dt}=-\frac{V}{I(t)^2}\frac{dI(t)}{dt}$

Which for our values is (the rate of <em>I(t)</em> is decreasing so we put a negative sign):

$\frac{dR(t)}{dt}=-\frac{24V}{(56A)^2}(-8A/s)=0.06\Omega$

A projectile is launched at an angle of 36.7 degrees above the horizontal with an initial speed of 175 m/s and lands at the same

Softa [21]

Answer:

a) The maximum height reached by the projectile is 558 m.

b) The projectile was 21.3 s in the air.

Explanation:

The position and velocity of the projectile at any time "t" is given by the following vectors:

r = (x0 + v0 · t · cos α, y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²)

v = (v0 · cos α, v0 · sin α + g · t)

Where:

r = position vector at time "t"

x0 = initial horizontal position

v0 = initial velocity

t = time

α = launching angle

y0 = initial vertical position

g = acceleration due to gravity (-9.80 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

v = velocity vector at time t

a) Notice in the figure that at maximum height the velocity vector is horizontal. That means that the y-component of the velocity (vy) at that time is 0. Using this, we can find the time at which the projectile is at maximum height:

vy = v0 · sin α + g · t

0 = 175 m/s · sin 36.7° - 9.80 m/s² · t

- 175 m/s · sin 36.7° / - 9.80 m/s² = t

t = 10.7 s

Now, we have to find the magnitude of the y-component of the vector position at that time to obtain the maximum height (In the figure, the vector position at t = 10.7 s is r1 and its y-component is r1y).

Notice in the figure that the frame of reference is located at the launching point, so that y0 = 0.

y = y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²

y = 175 m/s · 10.7 s · sin 36.7° - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · (10.7 s)²

y = 558 m

The maximum height reached by the projectile is 558 m

b) Since the motion of the projectile is parabolic and the acceleration is the same during all the trajectory, the time of flight will be twice the time it takes the projectile to reach the maximum height. Then, the time of flight of the projectile will be (2 · 10.7 s) 21.4 s. However, let´s calculate it using the equation for the position of the projectile.

We know that at final time the y-component of the vector position (r final in the figure) is 0 (because the vector is horizontal, see figure). Then:

y = y0 + v0 · t · sin α + 1/2 · g · t²

0 = 175 m/s · t · sin 36.7° - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t²

0 = t (175 m/s · sin 36.7 - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t)

0 = 175 m/s · sin 36.7 - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t

- 175 m/s · sin 36.7 / -(1/2 · 9.8 m/s²) = t

t = 21.3 s

The projectile was 21.3 s in the air.
