Answer:

Gravity provides a downward force, resulting in the diver going downward. They speed up like any falling object would, the pull of gravity is a dominant force. (There is a drag force – as a result of moving through the air.)

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

Work done to pull the piano upwards is 401250 J

Explanation:

Work is done against the gravity to pull the piano upwards

So here we can say that work done is

$W = mgH$

here we know that

$mg = 5350 N$

also we know that

H = 75 m

now we have

$W = 5350 \times 75$

$W = 401250 J$

A thin-walled cylindrical pressure vessel is subjected to an internal gauge pressure, p=75 psip=75 psi. It had a wall thickness

Mekhanik [1.2K]

To solve this problem we must apply the concept related to the longitudinal effort and the effort of the hoop. The effort of the hoop is given as

$\sigma_h = \frac{Pd}{2t}$

Here,

P = Pressure

d = Diameter

t = Thickness

At the same time the longitudinal stress is given as,

$\sigma_l = \frac{Pd}{4t}$

The letters have the same meaning as before.

Then he hoop stress would be,

$\sigma_h = \frac{Pd}{2t}$

$\sigma_h = \frac{75 \times 8}{2\times 0.25}$

$\sigma_h = 1200psi$

And the longitudinal stress would be

$\sigma_l = \frac{Pd}{4t}$

$\sigma_l = \frac{75\times 8}{4\times 0.25}$

$\sigma_l = 600Psi$

The Mohr's circle is attached in a image to find the maximum shear stress, which is given as

$\tau_{max} = \frac{\sigma_h}{2}$

$\tau_{max} = \frac{1200}{2}$

$\tau_{max} = 600Psi$

Therefore the maximum shear stress in the pressure vessel when it is subjected to this pressure is 600Psi
