An open circuit is one where the continuity has been broken by an interruption in the path for current to flow. A closed circuit is one that is complete, with good continuity throughout. A device designed to open or close a circuit under controlled conditions is called a switch.

The vertical weight carried by the builder at the rear end is F = 308.1 N

<h3>Calculations and Parameters</h3>

Given that:

The weight is carried up along the plane in rotational equilibrium condition

The torque equilibrium condition can be used to solve

We can note that the torque due to the force of the rear person about the position of the front person = Torque due to the weight of the block about the position of the front person

This would lead to:

F(W*cosθ) = mgsinθ(L/2) + mgcosθ(W/2)

F(1cos20)= 197/2(3.10sin20 + 2 cos 20)

Fcos20= 289.55

F= 308.1N

A speed boat moving at a velocity of 25 m/s runs out of gas and drifts to a stop 3 minutes later 100 meters away. What is its ra

mr_godi [17]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The rate of deceleration is -0.14 $m/s^{2}$

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Using one of the equations of motion;

v = u + at

where;

v = final velocity of the boat = 0m/s (since the boat decelerates to a stop)

u = initial velocity of the boat = 25m/s

a = acceleration of the boat

t = time taken for the boat to accelerate/decelerate from u to v = 3 minutes

<em>Convert the time t = 3 minutes to seconds;</em>

=> 3 minutes = 3 x 60 seconds = 180seconds.

<em>Substitute the values of v, u, t into the equation above. We have;</em>

v = u + at

=> 0 = 25 + a(180)

=> 0 = 25 + 180a

<em>Make a the subject of the formula;</em>

=> 180a = 0 - 25

=> 180a = -25

=> a = -25/180

=> a = -0.14 $m/s^{2}$

The negative value of a shows that the boat is decelerating.

Therefore, the rate of deceleration of the speed boat is 0.14 $m/s^{2}$

Complete question:

The exit nozzle in a jet engine receives air at 1200 K, 150 kPa with negligible kinetic energy. The exit pressure is 80 kPa, and the process is reversible and adiabatic. Use constant specific heat at 300 K to find the exit velocity.

Answer:

The exit velocity is 629.41 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

initial temperature, T₁ = 1200K

initial pressure, P₁ = 150 kPa

final pressure, P₂ = 80 kPa

specific heat at 300 K, Cp = 1004 J/kgK

k = 1.4

Calculate final temperature;

$T_2 = T_1(\frac{P_2}{P_1})^{\frac{k-1 }{k}$

k = 1.4

$T_2 = T_1(\frac{P_2}{P_1})^{\frac{k-1 }{k}}\\\\T_2 = 1200(\frac{80}{150})^{\frac{1.4-1 }{1.4}}\\\\T_2 = 1002.714K$

Work done is given as;

$W = \frac{1}{2} *m*(v_i^2 - v_e^2)$

inlet velocity is negligible;

$v_e = \sqrt{\frac{2W}{m} } = \sqrt{2*C_p(T_1-T_2)} \\\\v_e = \sqrt{2*1004(1200-1002.714)}\\\\v_e = \sqrt{396150.288} \\\\v_e = 629.41 \ m/s$

Therefore, the exit velocity is 629.41 m/s
