Answer:A generator is the appropriate device to be used.

Explanation:

A generator is a device which transforms mechanical energy to electrical energy.

The different parts of a generator includes:

- Engine, alternator, fuel system, voltage regulator, lubricating system, cooling and exhaust system, Battery charger and control panel.

The generator works on the principle of electromagnetic induction which states that

that the above flow of electric charges could be induced by moving an electrical conductor, such as a wire that contains electric charges, in a magnetic field. This movement creates a voltage difference between the two ends of the wire or electrical conductor, which in turn causes the electric charges to flow, thus generating electric current.

Therefore, the use of a generator is the best device for the campers to provide electrical power source for their heaters and light in the cabin.

Which is considered computer storage
Korolek [52]

Answer:

Second Option

Explanation:

The "hard drive" or the second option is one of the main components of storing information on a computer. You already have a hard drive built into your computer, or laptop when you buy it, and you can buy additional hard drives in the form of plugins that can store even more data if your original hard drive becomes full of data.

Hope this helps.

2200 kg semi truck driving down the highway has lost control. The truck rolls across the median and into oncoming traffic. The t
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The semi truck travels at an initial speed of 69.545 meters per second downwards.

Explanation:

In this exercise we see a case of an entirely inellastic collision between the semi truck and the car, which can be described by the following equation derived from Principle of Linear Momentum Conservation: (We assume that velocity oriented northwards is positive)

m_{S}\cdot v_{S}+m_{C}\cdot v_{C} = (m_{S}+m_{C})\cdot v (1)

Where:

m_{S}, m_{C} - Masses of the semi truck and the car, measured in kilograms.

v_{S}, v_{C} - Initial velocities of the semi truck and the car, measured in meters per second.

v - Final speed of the system after collision, measured in meters per second.

If we know that m_{S} = 2200\,kg, m_{C} = 2000\,kg, v_{C} = 45\,\frac{m}{s} and v = -15\,\frac{m}{s}, then the initial velocity of the semi truck is:

m_{S}\cdot v_{S} = (m_{S}+m_{C})\cdot v -m_{C}\cdot v_{C}

v_{S} = \frac{(m_{S}+m_{C})\cdot v - m_{C}\cdot v_{C}}{m_{S}}

v_{S} = \left(1+\frac{m_{C}}{m_{S}} \right)\cdot v - \frac{m_{C}}{m_{S}} \cdot v_{C}

v_{S} = v +\frac{m_{C}}{m_{S}}\cdot (v-v_{C})

v_{S} = -15\,\frac{m}{s}+\left(\frac{2000\,kg}{2200\,kg} \right) \cdot \left(-15\,\frac{m}{s}-45\,\frac{m}{s}  \right)

v_{S} = -69.545\,\frac{m}{s}  

The semi truck travels at an initial speed of 69.545 meters per second downwards.

So, RCF, or relative centrifugal force should be equal to RCF = <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=11%2C18%2Ar%2A%28RPM%2F1000%29
zysi [14]

After plugging all the data into the equation, the result of the relative centrifugal force (RCF)  is measured in terms of g.

<h3>What is relative centrifugal force?</h3>

The relative centrifugal force (RCF) or the g force is the radial force generated by the spinning rotor as expressed relative to the earth's gravitational force.

RCF = ac/g

where;

  • ac is centripetal acceleration
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

RCF = \frac{\omega ^2 r}{g} = 1.118\times 10^{-5} \ (RPM)^2 r = 11.18r\ (RPM/1000)^2

where;

  • r is radius in cm

<h3>For example, </h3>

Find the maximum RCF of the JS-4.2 rotor can be obtained from its maximum speed (4200 rpm) and its rmax (250 mm);

RCF = 11.18 \times 25\ cm \times (\frac{4200 \ RPM}{1000} )^2 = 4,930.3 \times g

Thus, after plugging all the data into the equation, the result is measured in terms of g.
