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

A driver in a car traveling at a speed of 21.8m/s sees a cat 101 m away on the road. How long will it take for the car to accele
kobusy [5.1K]
The acceleration of the car will be needed in order to calculate the time. It is important to consider that the final speed is equal to zero:

v^2 = v_0^2 + 2ad\ \to\ a = \frac{-v_0^2}{2d} = -\frac{21.8^2\ m^2/s^2}{2\cdot 99\ m} = -2.4\frac{m}{s^2}

We can clear time in the speed equation:

v = v_0 + at\ \to\ t = \frac{-v_0}{a} = \frac{-21.8\ m/s}{-2.4\ m/s^2} = \bf 9.08\ s

Compare the strengths of UV light and microwaves (in Hz). Which type of light is more powerful and how do you know?
TEA [102]

Answer:

UV light is more powerful as it has greater energy.

Explanation:

The energy propagated by electromagnetic waves ( light ) through vacuum or medium is known as electromagnetic radiation.

The frequency/wavelength range of electromagnetic radiation is known as electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic spectrum ranging from gamma ray to radio waves.

Frequency range of UV light = ( 8 x 10¹⁴ to 3 x 10¹⁶ ) Hz

Frequency range of Microwaves = ( 300 x 10⁶ to 300 x 10⁹ ) Hz

Ratio of UV light to Microwaves = (\frac{8\times10^{14} }{300\times10^{6} } to \frac{3\times10^{16} }{300\times10^{9} } )

                                                     = ( 2.66 x 10⁶ to 1 x 10⁸ )

Energy of electromagnetic radiation is given by the relation:

E = hν

Here h is plank's constant and ν is frequency.

UV light is more powerful than Microwaves as frequency of UV light is greater than frequency of microwaves. Thus, by the above equation, the energy of UV light is more than energy of Microwaves.

According to universal gravitation, both mass and air resistance affect the gravitational attraction between objects
Ksju [112]
Air resistance doesn't appear in the formula for gravitational force, because it doesn't affect it. Mass does because it does.

A particle moves along a straight line. Its position at any instant is given by x = 32t− 38t^3/3 where x is in metre and t in se
Rudik [331]

Answer:

The acceleration of the object is -69.78 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

postion of the particle:

x = 32t - 38\frac{t^3}{3} \\\\

The velocity of the particle is calculated as the change in the position of the  particle with time;

v = \frac{dx}{dt} = 32 - 38t^2\\\\when \ the \ particle \ is \ at \ rest, \ v = 0\\\\32-38t^2 = 0\\\\38t^2 = 32\\\\t^2 = \frac{32}{38} \\\\t = \sqrt{\frac{32}{38} } \\\\t = 0.918 \ s

Acceleration is the change in velocity with time;

a = \frac{dv}{dt} = -76t\\\\recall , \ t = 0.918 \ s\\\\a = -76(0.918)\\\\a = -69.78 \ m/s^2
