Why does a box on the seat of a car slide around on the c one the car speeds up slows down or turns a corner?

1 answer:

Because the box keeps going straight at the same speed, while the seat under it speeds up, slows down, or changes direction.

The dot or scalar product of two (3d) vec- tors ⃗a = ⟨a1,a2,a3⟩ and ⃗b = ⟨b1,b2,b3⟩ is defined as

Yes, yes, we know all of that. It certainly took you long enough to
get around to asking your question.

If
   a = (14, 10.5, 0)
and
   b = (4.62, 9.45, 0) ,

then, to begin with, neither vector has a z-component, and they
both lie in the x-y plane.

Their dot-product a · b = (14 x 4.62) + (10.5 x 9.45) =

         (64.68)   +   (99.225) = 163.905 (scalar)

I feel I earned your generous 5 points just reading your treatise and
finding your question (in the last line). I shall cherish every one of them.

Steam is leaving a pressure cooker whose operating pressure is 20 psia. It is observed that the amount of liquid in the cooker h

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

a) 34.05ft/s

b).1156.2BTU/lbm

c) 2.04BTU/s

Explanation:

Amount of liquid that has evaporated, m = ◇Vliq/ Vf

We replace the values to make conversion

m = (0.6gal/ 0.01683ft^3/lbm) × (0.13368ft^3/1gal)

m = 4.755lb

The mass flow rate of exit steam is given by:

m' = m/◇t

We replace values to make conversion

m' =( 4.766lb/45min) = 0.1059lb/min × 1min/60s

m' = 0.001765lb/s

The exit velocity V = m'/pA = m'Vg/A

We replace values to make conversion

V =[ (0.001765lbm/s)(20.093ft^3/lbm) /(0.15 in^2)]× (144in^2/1ft^2)

V = 34.05ft/s

b) The total and flow energies per unit mass is given by:

Eflow= Pv = h - u

We replace the values to make conversion

Eflow = 1156.2 - 1081.8

Eflow = 74.4BTU/lbm

Therefore theta= h + ke + pe

Theta approximately =h = 1156.2BTU/lbs

c) The rate at which energy is leaving the cooler by steam is given by:

Emass = m'theta

Emass = (0.001765)×(1156.2)

Emass = 2.04BTU/s
