uppose a wheel is initially rotating at 10.0 rad/s while undergoing constant angular acceleration reaching a speed of 30.0 rad/s

Paul [167]

Answer:

t = 22.2 s

Explanation:

angular distance covered in the 36.0 s is

θ = ω(avg)t = ½(10.0 + 30.0)36 = 720 radians

720/2 = 360 radians

α = Δω/t = (30 - 10)/36 = 5/9 rad/s²

θ = ω₀t + ½αt²

360 = 10.0t + ½(5/9)t²

0 = (5/18)t² + 10.0t - 360

0 = t² + 36t - 1296

t = (-36 ±√(36² - 4(1)(-1296))) / 2

t = (-36 ±√(6480)) / 2

t = -18 ±√1620

we ignore the negative time result as it occurs before we care.

t = -18 + √1620 = 22.249223... s

Consider the system consisting of the box and the spring, but not Earth. How does the energy of the system when the spring is fu

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

the energy when it reaches the ground is equal to the energy when the spring is compressed.

Explanation:

For this comparison let's use the conservation of energy theorem.

Starting point. Compressed spring

Em₀ = K_e = ½ k x²

Final point. When the box hits the ground

Em_f = K = ½ m v²

since friction is zero, energy is conserved

Em₀ = Em_f

1 / 2k x² = ½ m v²

v = $\sqrt{ \frac{k}{m} }$ x

Therefore, the energy when it reaches the ground is equal to the energy when the spring is compressed.

A 15-ft3 tank contains oxygen initially at 14.7 psia and 80°F. A paddle wheel within the tank is rotated until the pressure insi

Nikolay [14]

Explanation:

Equation for energy balance will be as follows.

$\Delta E_{system} = E_{in} - E_{out}$

$\Delta U = W_{in} - Q_{out}$

Hence, $W_{in} = Q_{out} + mC_{v} (T_{2} - T_{1})$

Therefore, we will calculate the final temperature as follows.

$\frac{P_{1}V}{T_{1}} = \frac{P_{2}V}{T_{2}}$

$T_{2} = \frac{20 psia}{14.7}(638 R)$

= 868.03 R

Now, we will calculate the mass as follows.

m = $\frac{P_{1}V}{RT_{1}}$

= $\frac{14.7 psia \times 15 ft^{3}}{0.3353 psi ft^{3}/lbm R \times 638 R}$

= 1.031 lbm

Hence,

$W_{in} = Q_{out} + mC_{v} (T_{2} - T_{1})$

Putting the values into the above equation as follows.

$W_{in} = Q_{out} + mC_{v} (T_{2} - T_{1})$

$W_{in} = 20 Btu + 1.031 lbm (\frac{0.160 Btu}{lbm R})(735 - 540)R$

$W_{in}$ = 655.2 Btu

Thus, we can conclude that work done by paddle wheel is 655.2 Btu.

The 88-lb force P is applied to the 210-lb crate, which is stationary before the force is applied. Determine the magnitude and d

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

$F=-88Ib$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Force P=88Ib

Mass of crate M_c=210Ib

Generally the equation for Frictional force F is mathematically given by

$Friction\ force (f) = friction\ coefficient\ (u) * Normal\ reaction (N)$

$F=u*N$

with $\mu =0.47$

$F=98.7Ib$

Therefore since Static Friction supersedes applied force body remains at rest.

Frictional force =88Ib (negative)

$F=-88Ib$

suter [353]

Answer: Option <em>a.</em>

Explanation:

Kepler's 2nd law of planetary motion states:

<em>A line segment joining a planet and the Sun sweeps out equal areas during equal intervals of time.</em>

It tells us that it doesn't matter how far Earth is from the Sun, at equal times, the area swept out by Earth's orbit it's always the same independently from the position in the orbit.
