The aircraft wing from problem 6 experiences temperature extremes that span 210 degrees Celsius. The component for the wing will

have a length of exactly 3 meters. Testing indicates that the aircraft wing will remain stable only if the component never expands to a length larger than 3.017 meters. If the component is made from the metal alloy in question, will it meet this requirement. An unknown metal alloy is being tested to discover its thermal properties to see if it is suitable for use as a component in an aircraft wing. The alloy is formed into a bar measuring 1 meter in length, and is then heated from its starting temp. of 30°C to a final temperature of 100°C. The length of the heated bar is measured to be exactly 1.002 meters in length.
Required:
What is the coefficient of thermal expansion of the alloy?

Answer:

α = 2,857 10⁻⁵ ºC⁻¹

Explanation:

The thermal expansion of materials is described by the expression

          ΔL = α Lo ΔT

          α = \frac{\Delta L}{L_o \ \Delta T}

in the case of the bar the expansion is

         ΔL = L_f - L₀

         ΔL=   1.002 -1

         ΔL = 0.002 m

the temperature variation is

         ΔT = 100 - 30

         ΔT = 70º C

we calculate

         α = 0.002 / 1 70

         α = 2,857 10⁻⁵ ºC⁻¹

How long must a 0.70-mm-diameter aluminum wire be to have a 0.40 a current when connected to the terminals of a 1.5 v flashlight
Natalka [10]
By using Ohm's law, we can find what should be the resistance of the wire, R:
R= \frac{V}{I}= \frac{1.5 V}{0.40 A} =3.75 \Omega

Then, let's find the cross-sectional area of the wire. Its radius is half the diameter,
r=35 mm=0.35 \cdot 10^{-3} m
So the area is
A=\pi r^2 = \pi (0.35 \cdot 10^{-3} m)^2=3.85 \cdot 10^{-7} m^2

And by using the resistivity  of the Aluminum, \rho=2.65 \cdot 10^{-8} \Omega m, we can use the relationship between resistance R and resistivity:
R= \frac{\rho L}{A}
to find L, the length of the wire:
L= \frac{RA}{\rho}= \frac{(3.75 \Omega)(3,85 \cdot 10^{-7} m^2)}{2.65 \cdot 10^{-8} \Omega m}=54.48 m

An airplane pilot wishes to fly due west. A wind of 80.0 km/h (about 50 mi/h) is blowing toward the south. (a) If the airspeed o
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

a) 75.5 degree relative to the North in north-west direction

b) 309.84 km/h

Explanation:

a)If the pilot wants to fly due west while there's wind of 80km/h due south. The north-component of the airplane velocity relative to the air must be equal to the wind speed to the south, 80km/h in order to counter balance it

So the pilot should head to the West-North direction at an angle of

cos(\alpha) = 80/320 = 0.25

\alpha = cos^{-1}(0.25) = 1.32 rad = 180\frac{1.32}{\pi} = 75.5^0 relative to the North-bound.

b) As the North component of the airplane velocity cancel out the wind south-bound speed. The speed of the plane over the ground would be the West component of the airplane velocity, which is

320sin(\alpha) = 320sin(75.5^0) = 309.84 km/h
