In the demolition of an old building, a 1,300 kg wrecking ball hits the building at 1.07 m/s2. Calculate the amount of force at

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer: F = 1391 N

Explanation:

The information given to you are:

Mass M = 1300 kg

Acceleration a = 1.07 m/s^2

The magnitude of the force striking the building will be

F = ma

Where

F = force

Substitute mass M and acceleration a into the formula

F = 1300 × 1.07

F = 1391 N

Therefore, the wrecking ball strikes the building with a force of 1391 N

A 1.80-m string of weight 0.0126 N is tied to the ceiling at its upper end, and the lower end supports a weight W. Neglect the v

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

W = 0.135 N

Explanation:

Given:

- y (x, t) = 8.50*cos(172*x -2730*t)

- Weight of string m*g = 0.0126 N

- Attached weight = W

Find:

The attached weight W given that Tension and W are equal.

Solution:

The general form of standing mechanical waves is given by:

y (x, t) = A*cos(k*x -w*t)

Where k = stiffness and w = angular frequency

Hence,

k = 172 and w = 2730

- Calculate wave speed V:

V = w / k = 2730 / 172 = 13.78 m/s

- Tension in the string T:

T = Y*V^2

where Y: is the mass per unit length of the string.

- The tension T and weight attached W are equal:

T = W = Y*V^2 = (w/L*g)*V^2

W = (0.0126 / 1.8*9.81)*(13.78)^2

W = 0.135 N

Saturated steam at 125 kpa is compressed adiabatically in a centrifugal compressor to 700 kpa at the rate of 2.5 kg⋅s−1. the com

Tpy6a [65]

M° = 2.5 kg/sec
For saturated steam tables
at p₁ = 125Kpa
hg = h₁ = 2685.2 KJ/kg
SQ = s₁ = 7.2847 KJ/kg-k
for isotopic compression
S₁ = S₂ = 7.2847 KJ/kg-k
at 700Kpa steam with S = 7.2847
h₂ 3051.3 KJ/kg
Compressor efficiency
h = 0.78
0.78 = h₂ - h₁/h₂-h₁
0.78 = h₂-h₁ → 0.78 = 3051.3 - 2685.2/h₂ - 2685.2
h₂ = 3154.6KJ/kg
at 700Kpa with 3154.6 KJ/kg
enthalpy gives
entropy S₂ = 7.4586 KJ/kg-k
Work = m(h₂ - h₁) = 2.5(3154.6 - 2685.2
W = 1173.5KW
