What is the weight of a glider with a mass of 5.3 grams? (Hint: watch your units!)

Engineering
1 answer:
Vinvika [58]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: 0.053

Explanation:

So, we convert 5.3 grams into kilograms.

5.3g = 0.0053 kg (Since 1kg equals 1000g)

On Earth, gravity is 10 N/kg.

Weight = mass x gravity

Weight = 0.0053kg x 10 N/kg

Weight = 0.053 Newtons (On Earth)

What is the IMA of this pulley belt system if the diameter of the input
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

2.8

Explanation:

The ideal mechanical advantage of the pulley IMA  = D'/D where D' = diameter of output pulley = 7 inches and D = diameter of input pulley = 2.5 inches

So, IMA = D'/D

= 7/2.5

= 2.8

So, the ideal mechanical advantage of the pulley IMA = 2.8

A cruise missile under test is moving horizontally at Ma =2 in the atmosphere at an elevation of 2000 m (Air temperature is 2 °C
telo118 [61]

Answer: the half-angle "alpha" of the Mach cone = 30⁰

Explanation:

To calculate the  half-angle "alpha" of the Mach cone.

we say ;

Sin∝ = 1 / Ma

given that Ma = 2

now we substitute

Sin∝ = 1 / 2

Sin∝ = 0.5

∝ = Sin⁻¹ 0.5

∝ = 30⁰

Therefore, the half-angle "alpha" of the Mach cone is 30⁰

Consider a space shuttle weighing 100 kN. It is travelling at 310 m/s for 30 minutes. At the same time, it descends 2200 m. Cons
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

work done = 48.88 × 10^{9} J

Explanation:

given data

mass = 100 kN

velocity =  310 m/s

time = 30 min = 1800 s

drag force = 12 kN

descends = 2200 m

to find out

work done by the shuttle engine

solution

we know that work done here is

work done = accelerating work - drag work - descending work

put here all value

work done = ( mass ×velocity ×time  - force ×velocity ×time  - mass ×descends )  10³ J

work done = ( 100 × 310 × 1800  - 12×310 ×1800  - 100 × 2200 )  10³ J

work done = 48.88 × 10^{9} J
