Answer:

a. 12.57 m/s b. 39.5 m/s² c. Her centripetal force is four times her weight.

Explanation:

a. What is Missy's linear speed on the rotor?

Missy's linear speed v = 2πr/T where r = radius = 4.0 m and T = time it takes to complete one revolution = 2.0 s

So, v = 2πr/T

= 2π(4.0 m)/2.0 s

= 4π m/s

= 12.57 m/s

b. What is  Missy's centripetal acceleration on the rotor?

Missy's centripetal acceleration, a = v²/r where v = linear velocity = 12.57 m/s and r = radius = 4.0 m

a = v²/r

= (12.57 m/s)²/4.0 m

= 158.01 m²/s² ÷ 4.0 m

= 39.5 m/s²

c. If her mass is 50-Kg, how is the centripetal force  compare to her weight?

Her centripetal force F = ma where m = mass = 50 kg and a = centripetal acceleration = 39.5 m/s².

Her weight W = mg where m = mass = 50 kg and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s².

So, comparing her centripetal force to her weight, we have

F/W = ma/mg

= a/g

= 39.5 m/s² ÷ 9.8 m/s²

= 4.03

≅ 4

So her centripetal force is four times her weight.

heat engine operating between 100 °C and 700 °C has an efficiency equal to 40% of the maximum theoretical efficiency. How much e
ipn [44]

Answer:

Explanation:

Theoretical efficiency = T₁ - T₂ / T₁ where T₁ and T₂ is absolute temperature of hot and cold end of the heat engine.

= 600 / (273 + 700 )

= 600 / 973

= .6166

operating efficiency = 40% of .6166

= .4 x .6166

= .2466 = 24.66 %

efficiency = work output / heat input

= 5000 / heat input = .2466

heat input = 5000 / .2466

= 20275.75 J .

HEAT EXTRACED = 20275.75 J.

Create the following matrix H:
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

a) {[1.25  1.5  1.75  2.5  2.75]

    [35  30  25  20  15]  }

b) {[1.5  2  40]

    [1.75  3  35]

    [2.25  2  25]

    [2.75  4  15]}

Explanation:

Matrix H: {[1.25  1.5  1.75  2  2.25  2.5  2.75]

                [1  2  3  1  2  3  4]

                [45  40  35  30  25  20  15]}

Its always important to get the dimensions of your matrix right. "Roman Columns" is the mental heuristic I use since a matrix is defined by its rows first and then its column such that a 2 X 5 matrix has 2 rows and 5 columns.

Next, it helps in the beginning to think of a matrix as a grid, labeling your rows  with letters (A, B, C, ...) and your columns with numbers (1, 2, 3, ...).

For question a, we just want to take the elements A1, A2, A3, A6 and A7 from matrix H and make that the first row of matrix G. And then we will take the elements B3, B4, B5, B6 and B7 from matrix H as our second row in matrix G.

For question b, we will be taking columns from matrix H and making them rows in our matrix K. The second column of H looks like this:

{[1.5]

[2]

[40]}

Transposing this column will make our first row of K look like this:

{[1.5  2  40]}

Repeating for columns 3, 5 and 7 will give us the final matrix K as seen above.
