Answer:

The tank should be empty in about 2-1/4 hours. Variables: h = elevation of tank D = diameter of tank A = orifice area (ft2) G = gravitational acceleration = 32.2 ft/sec2 ∆t = time required to empty tank (sec) The following formulas are based on turbulent flow of a Newtonian fluid through an outlet (orifice) in a tank.Explanation:Measure the number of liters or gallons in the container, and divide that number by 15. This gives the flow rate in liters per second or gallons per second. The formula is F = V/T, where F is the flow rate, V is the volume and T is the time.=180 s=3 min.

mass weighing 16 pounds stretches a spring 8 3 feet. The mass is initially released from rest from a point 2 feet below the equi

valina [46]

Answer:

The answer is

" $x(t)= e^\frac{-t}{2}((\frac{-4}{3})\cos\frac{\sqrt{47}}{2}t- \frac{-64\sqrt{47}}{141} \sin\frac{\sqrt{47}}{2}t)+\frac{10}{3}(\cos(3t)+ \sin (3t))$ ".

Explanation:

Taking into consideration a volume weight = 16 pounds originally extends a springs $\frac{8}{3}$ feet but is extracted to resting at 2 feet beneath balance position.

The mass value is =

$W=mg\\m=\frac{w}{g}\\m=\frac{16}{32}\\m= \frac{1}{2} slug\\$

The source of the hooks law is stable,

$16= \frac{8}{3} k \\\\8k=16 \times 3 \\\\k=16\times \frac{3}{8} \\\\k=6 \frac{lb}{ft}\\\\$

Number $\frac{1}{2}$ times the immediate speed, i.e .. Damping force

$\frac{1}{2} \frac{d^2 x}{dt^2} = -6x-\frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}+10 \cos 3t \\\\\frac{1}{2} \frac{d^2 x}{dt^2}+ \frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}+6x =10 \cos 3t \\ \\\frac{d^2 x}{dt^2} +\frac{dx}{dt}+12x=20\cos 3t \\\\$

The m^2+m+12=0 and m is an auxiliary equation,

$m=\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{1-4(12)}}{2}\\\\m=\frac{-1 \pm \sqrt{47i}}{2}\\\\\ m1= \frac{-1 + \sqrt{47i}}{2} \ \ \ \ or\ \ \ \ \ m2 =\frac{-1 - \sqrt{47i}}{2}$

Therefore, additional feature

$x_c (t) = e^{\frac{-t}{2}}[C_1 \cos \frac{\sqrt{47}}{2}t+ C_2 \sin \frac{\sqrt{47}}{2}t]$

Use the form of uncertain coefficients to find a particular solution.

Assume that solution equation,

$x_p = Acos(3t)+B sin(3t) \\x_p'= -3A sin (3t) + 3B cos (3t)\\x_p}^{n= -9 Acos(3t) -9B sin (3t)\\$

These values are replaced by equation ( 1):

$\frac{d^2x}{dt}+\frac{dx}{dt}+ 12x=20 \cos(3t) -9 Acos(3t) -9B sin (3t) -3Asin(3t)+3B cos (3t) + 12A cos (3t) + 12B sin (3t)\\\\3Acos 3t + 3B sin 3t - 3Asin 3t + 3B cos 3t= 20cos(3t)\\(3A+3B)cos3t -(3A-3B)sin3t = 20 cos (3t)\\$

Going to compare cos3 t and sin 3 t coefficients from both sides,

The cost3 t is 3A + 3B= 20 coefficients

The sin 3 t is 3B -3A = 0 coefficient

The two equations solved:

$3A+3B = 20 \\\frac{3B -3A=0}{}\\6B=20\\B= \frac{20}{6}\\B=\frac{10}{3}\\$

Replace the very first equation with the meaning,

$3B -3A=O\\3(\frac{10}{3})-3A =0\\A= \frac{10}{3}\\$

equation is

$x_p\\\\\frac{10}{3} cos (3 t) + \frac{10}{3} sin (3t)$

The ultimate plan for both the equation is therefore

$x(t)= e^\frac{-t}{2} (c_1 cos \frac{\sqrt{47}}{2}t)+c_2\sin\frac{\sqrt{47}}{2}t)+\frac{10}{3}\cos (3t)+\frac{10}{3}\sin (3t)$

Initially, the volume of rest x(0)=2 and x'(0) is extracted by rest i.e.

Throughout the general solution, replace initial state x(0) = 2,

Replace x'(0)=0 with a general solution in the initial condition,

$x(t)= e^\frac{-t}{2} [(c_1 cos \frac{\sqrt{47}}{2}t)+c_2\sin\frac{\sqrt{47}}{2}t)+\frac{10}{3}\cos (3t)+\frac{10}{3}\sin (3t)]\\\\$

$x(t)= e^\frac{-t}{2} [(-\frac{\sqrt{47}}{2}c_1\sin\frac{\sqrt{47}}{2}t)+ (\frac{\sqrt{47}}{2}c_2\cos\frac{\sqrt{47}}{2}t)+c_2\cos\frac{\sqrt{47}}{2}t) +c_1\cos\frac{\sqrt{47}}{2}t +c_2\sin\frac{\sqrt{47}}{2}t + \frac{-1}{2}e^{\frac{-t}{2}} -10 sin(3t)+10 cos(3t) \\\\$

$c_2=\frac{-64\sqrt{47}}{141}$

$x(t)= e^\frac{-t}{2}((\frac{-4}{3})\cos\frac{\sqrt{47}}{2}t- \frac{-64\sqrt{47}}{141} \sin\frac{\sqrt{47}}{2}t)+\frac{10}{3}(\cos(3t)+ \sin (3t))$

Equations to use: v= λ ∙ f v=d/t

Margarita [4]

b. 460.8 m/s

Explanation:

The relationship between the speed of the wave along the string, the length of the string and the frequency of the note is

$f=\frac{v}{2L}$

where v is the speed of the wave, L is the length of the string and f is the frequency. Re-arranging the equation and substituting the data of the problem (L=0.90 m and f=256 Hz), we can find v:

$v=2Lf=2(0.90 m)(256 Hz)=460.8 m/s$

c. 18,000 m

Explanation:

The relationship between speed of the wave, distance travelled and time taken is

$v=\frac{d}{t}$

where

v = 6,000 m/s is the speed of the wave

d = ? is the distance travelled

t = 3 s is the time taken

Re-arranging the formula and substituting the numbers into it, we find:

$d=vt=(6,000 m/s)(3 s)=18,000 m$

If an object were released in space far away from planted or stars and given an initial momentum, describe what would happen to

mamaluj [8]

Strange as it may seem, the object would keep moving, in a straight line and at the same speed, until it came near another object. Its momentum and kinetic energy would never change. It might continue like that for a billion years or more.

Have a look at Newton's first law of motion.
