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

What are the condition required for reverberation?​
Luda [366]

Answer:

Reverberation is created when a sound produced in a sapce is reflected off surfaces, like walls, teh floor or the ceiling. ... The time it takes for this sound in the space to decrease in volume down to 60 decibels (practically silence) after the sound source is extinguished is its reverberation time.

A toy rocket is fired vertically into the air from the ground at an initial velocity of 80 feet per second. Find the time it wil
miskamm [114]

Answer: 16.3 seconds

Explanation: Given that the

Initial velocity U = 80 ft/s

Let's first calculate the maximum height reached by using third equation of motion.

V^2 = U^2 - 2gH

Where V = final velocity and H = maximum height.

Since the toy is moving against the gravity, g will be negative.

At maximum height, V = 0

0 = 80^2 - 2 × 9.81 × H

6400 = 19.62H

H = 6400/19.62

H = 326.2

Let's us second equation of motion to find time.

H = Ut - 1/2gt^2

Let assume that the ball is dropped from the maximum height. Then,

U = 0. The equation will be reduced to

H = 1/2gt^2

326.2 = 1/2 × 9.81 × t^2

326.2 = 4.905t^2

t^2 = 326.2/4.905

t = sqrt( 66.5 )

t = 8.15 seconds

The time it will take for the rocket to return to ground level will be 2t.

That is, 2 × 8.15 = 16.3 seconds

A spring with spring constant 450 N/m is stretched by 12 cm. What distance is required to double the amount of potential energy
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

<em> The distance required = 16.97 cm</em>

Explanation:

Hook's Law

From Hook's law, the potential energy stored in a stretched spring

E = 1/2ke² ......................... Equation 1

making e the subject of the equation,

e = √(2E/k)........................ Equation 2

Where E = potential Energy of the stretched spring, k = elastic constant of the spring, e = extension.

Given: k = 450 N/m, e = 12 cm = 0.12 m.

E = 1/2(450)(0.12)²

E = 225(0.12)²

E = 3.24 J.

When the potential energy is doubled,

I.e E = 2×3.24

E = 6.48 J.

Substituting into equation 2,

e = √(2×6.48/450)

e = √0.0288

e = 0.1697 m

<em>e = 16.97 cm</em>

<em>Thus the distance required = 16.97 cm</em>
