Air flows into a jet engine at 70 lbm/s, and fuel also enters the engine at a steady rate. The exhaust gases, having a density o

f 0.1 lbm/ft3 , exit through a circular cross section with a radius of 1 ft at 1450 ft/s relative to the engine. Find the mass of fuel which is supplied to the engine each minute.

Answer:

1387908 lbm/h

Explanation:

Air flowing into jet engine = 70 lbm/s

ρ = Exhaust gas density = 0.1 lbm/ft³

r = Radius of exit with a circular cross section = 1 ft

v = Exhaust gas velocity = 1450 ft/s

Exhaust gas mass (flow rate)= Air flowing into jet engine + Fuel

Q = (70+x) lbm/s

Area of exit with a circular cross section = π×r² = π×1²= π m²

Now from energy balance

Q = ρ×A×v

⇒70+x = 0.1×π×1450

⇒70+x = 455.53

⇒ x = 455.53-70

⇒ x = 385.53 lbm/s

∴ Mass of fuel which is supplied to the engine each minute is 1387908 lbm/h

The length of a simple pendulum is 0.66 m, the pendulum bob has a mass of 310 grams, and it is released at an angle of 12 degree

lina2011 [118]

A) the periodic time is given by the equation;
T= 2π√(L/g)
For the frequency will be obtained by 1/T (Hz)
T = 2 × 3.14 √ (0.66/9.81)
= 6.28 × √0.0673
= 1.6289 Seconds
Frequency = 1/T = f = 1/1.6289
thus; frequency = 0.614 Hz

b) The vertical distance, the height is given by
h= 0.66 cos 12
h = 0.65 m
Vertical fall at the lowest point = 0.66 - 0.65 = 0.01 m
Applying conservation of energy
energy lost (MgΔh) = KE gained (1/2mv²)
mgh = 1/2mv²
v² = 2gΔh = 2×9.81 × 0.01
= 0.1962
v = 0.443 m/s

c) total energy = KE + GPE = KE when GPE is equal to zero (at the lowest point possible)
Thus total energy is equal to;
E = 1/2mv²
= 1/2 × 0.310 × 0.443²
= 0.0304 J

The mass of the bicycle and rider is 60 kg and the total area of the tyres in contact with

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

a little

Explanation:

First of all, it's not how you spell "tyres", it is tires.

Second of all, you already know the Mass so what you need to find out now is contact the road. You Know that your number and letter are squared so that would turn into 6m x 2.4. Then you do the math do continue on to finish it. Have a great day!! Good luck with the answer!!

a projectile is lunched with an initial speed of 60.0mm/s at an angle of 30.0° above the horizontal.The projectile lands on a hi

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

52 mm/s (approximately)

Explanation:

Given:

Initial speed of the projectile is, $u=60.0\ mm/s$

Angle of projection is, $\theta=30.0\°$

Time taken to land on the hill is, $t=4\ s$

In a projectile motion, there is acceleration only in the vertical direction which is equal to acceleration due to gravity acting vertically downward. There is no acceleration in the horizontal direction.

So, the velocity in the horizontal direction always remains the same.

The horizontal component of initial velocity is given as:

$u_x=u\cos\theta\\u_x=60\times \cos(30)\\u_x=30\sqrt3\approx52\ mm/s$

Now, the velocity in the vertical direction goes on decreasing and becomes 0 at the highest point of the trajectory. So, at the highest point, only horizontal component acts.

Therefore, the projectile's velocity at the highest point of its trajectory is equal to the horizontal component of initial velocity and thus is equal to 52 mm/s.

For a particular casting setup, the top of the sprue has a diameter of 0.030 m, and its length is 0.200 m. The volume flow rate

faust18 [17]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Diameter=0.030 m

Length of sprue= $h_1$ =0.200 m

Metal volume flow rate,Q=0.03 $m^3/min$

Q= $\frac{0.03}{60}=5\times 10^{-4}m^3/s$ because 1 minute=60 seconds

Let 1 for the top and 2 for the bottom

$d_=0.030 m$

$h_2=0$

$A_1=\frac{\pi d^2}{4}=\frac{3.14\times (0.030)^2}{4}$

$A_1=7.065\times 10^{-4} m^2$

$v_1=\frac{Q}{A_1}=\frac{5\times 10^{-4}}{7.065\times 10^{-4}}$

$v_1=0.708 m/s$

Pressure at the top and bottom of the sprue is atmospheric

$h_1+\frac{v^2_1}{2g}=h_2+\frac{v^2_2}{2g}$

Substitute the values

$0.2+\frac{(0.708)^2}{2\cdot 9.8}=0+\frac[v^2_2}{2\cdot 9.8}$

$v^2_2=2\cdot 9.8\cdot \frac{0.2\cdot 9.8\cdot 2+0.501264}{2\cdot 9.8}=4.421264$

$v_2=\sqrt{4.421264}=2.1 m/s$

$Q=A_2v_2$

$5\times 10^{-4}=A_2\times 2.1$

$A_2=\frac{5\times 10^{-4}}{2.1}=2.381\times 10^{-4} m^2$

Reynolds number= $\frac{v_2D\rho}{\eta}$

$\eta=0.004 N.s/m^2$

$\rho=2700 kg/m^3$

Substitute the values then we get

Reynolds number= $\frac{2.1\times 0.03\times 2700}{0.004}$

Reynolds number=42525

The Reynolds number is greater than 4000 .Therefore, the flow is turbulent.
