An airplane has a takeoff speed of 62 m/s. assuming a constant acceleration of 1.7 m/s2, what is the minimum length of runway it
UkoKoshka [18]

Data:

u=0 m/s is the initial velocity of the plane

v=62 m/s is the final velocity of the plane (at which the plane takes off)

a=1.7 m/s^2 is the acceleration of the plane

To find the minimum distance S the plane needs to take off, we can use the following equation:

2aS=v^2 -u^2

Re-arranging it and substituting the numbers, we find

S=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}=\frac{(62 m/s)^2-0}{2(1.7 m/s^2)}=1131 m

Photoelectrons with a maximum speed of 7.00 · 105 m/s are ejected from a surface in the presence of light with a frequency of 8.
lord [1]
This is just testing your ability to recall that kinetic energy is given by: 

<span>k.e. = ½mv² </span>

<span>where m is the mass and v is the velocity of the particle. </span>

<span>The frequency of the light is redundant information. </span>

<span>Here, you are given m = 9.1 * 10^-31 kg and v = 7.00 * 10^5 m/s. </span>
<span>Just plug in the values: </span>

<span>k.e. = ½ * 9.1 * 10^-31 * (7.00 * 10^5)² </span>
<span>k.e. = 2.23 * 10^-19 J 
so it will be d:2.2*10^-19 J</span>

A spring with a spring constant of 2500 n/m. is stretched 4.00 cm. what is the work required to stretch the spring?
Yuri [45]
W = 1/2k*x^2.

k = spring constant = 2500 n/m.
x = distance = 4 cm = 0.04m (convert to same units).

W = 1/2(2500)(0.04)^2 = 2J.

Air at 400 kPa, 980 K enters a turbine operating at steady state and exits at 100 kPa, 670 K. Heat transfer from the turbine occ
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

a). \frac{\dot{W}}{m}= 311 kJ/kg

b). \frac{\dot{\sigma _{gen}}}{m}=0.9113 kJ/kg-K

Explanation:

a). The energy rate balance equation in the control volume is given by

\dot{Q} - \dot{W}+m(h_{1}-h_{2})=0

\frac{\dot{Q}}{m} = \frac{\dot{W}}{m}+m(h_{1}-h_{2})

\frac{\dot{W}}{m}= \frac{\dot{Q}}{m}+c_{p}(T_{1}-T_{2})

\frac{\dot{W}}{m}= -30+1.1(980-670)

\frac{\dot{W}}{m}= 311 kJ/kg

b). Entropy produced from the entropy balance equation in a control volume is given by

\frac{\dot{Q}}{T_{boundary}}+\dot{m}(s_{1}-s_{2})+\dot{\sigma _{gen}}=0

\frac{\dot{\sigma _{gen}}}{m}=\frac{-\frac{\dot{Q}}{m}}{T_{boundary}}+(s_{2}-s_{1})

\frac{\dot{\sigma _{gen}}}{m}=\frac{-\frac{\dot{Q}}{m}}{T_{boundary}}+c_{p}ln\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}-R.ln\frac{p_{2}}{p_{1}}

\frac{\dot{\sigma _{gen}}}{m}=\frac{-30}{315}+1.1ln\frac{670}{980}-0.287.ln\frac{100}{400}

\frac{\dot{\sigma _{gen}}}{m}=0.0952+0.4183+0.3978

\frac{\dot{\sigma _{gen}}}{m}=0.9113 kJ/kg-K
