A typical ceiling fan running at high speed has an airflow of about 2.00 ✕ 103 ft3/min, meaning that about 2.00 ✕ 103 cubic feet

of air move over the fan blades each minute.
Determine the fan's airflow in m3/s.

Answer:

0.94 m³/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Air flow (in ft³/min) = 2×10³ ft³/min

Air flow (in m³/s) =.?

Next, we shall convert 2×10³ ft³/min to m³/min. This can be obtained as follow:

35.315 ft³/min = 1 m³/min

Therefore,

2×10³ ft³/min = 2×10³ ft³/min × 1 m³/min / 35.315 ft³/min

2×10³ ft³/min = 56.63 m³/min

Finally, we shall convert 56.63 m³/min to m³/s. This can be obtained as follow:

1 m³/min = 1/60 m³/s

Therefore,

56.63 m³/min = 56.63 m³/min × 1/60 m³/s ÷ 1 m³/min

56.63 m³/min = 0.94 m³/s

Thus, 2×10³ ft³/minis equivalent to 0.94 m³/s.

A 2.2-m-long steel rod must not stretch more than 1.2 mm when it is subjected to a 8.5-kN tension force. Knowing that E = 200 GP

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

a) 0.00996 m

b) 109090909 Pa

Explanation:

Unit conversions:

$E = 200GPa = 200\times10^9 Pa$

1.2 mm = 0.0012 m

8.5 kN = 8500 N

If the 2.2m rod cannot stretch more than 0.0012 m, its maximum strain is

$\epsilon = \frac{\Delta L}{L} = \frac{0.0012}{2.2} = 0.000545455$

With elastic modulus being E = 200 GPa, then its maximum stress must be

$\sigma = E\epsilon = 200\times10^9*0.000545455 = 109090909 Pa$

Knowing the tension force being F = 8500 N, we can calculate the appropriate cross section area

$A = \frac{F}{\sigma} = \frac{8500}{109090909} = 7.79\times10^{-5}m^2$

And its corresponding diameter is

$A = \pi d^2/4$

$7.79\times10^{-5} = \pi d^2/4$

$d^2 = \frac{4*7.79\times10^{-5}}{\pi} = 9.92\times10^{-5}$

$d = \sqrt{9.92\times10^{-5}} = 0.00996 m \approx 1 cm$

A rugby player passes the ball 7.88 m across the field, where it is caught at the same height as it left his hand. (Assume the p

damaskus [11]

Explanation:

Given

Range of ball =7.88 m

Initial speed=13.1 m/s

and we know

Range of Projectile is

$R=\frac{u^2sin2\theta }{g}$

$13.1=\frac{13.1^2\times sin2\theta }{9.8}$

$7.88\times 9.8=13.1^2\times sin2\theta$

$sin2\theta =0.4499$

$2\theta =26.74^{\circ}$

$\theta =13.37 ^{\circ}$

(b)other angle would be complementary of $\theta$

$=90-\theta =76.63 ^{\circ}$

Suppose there was a star with a parallax angle of 1 arcsecond. How far away would it be? Select all that apply.

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

option E

Explanation:

given,

Parallax angle(d) = 1 arcsecond

using Parallax formula

$d = \dfrac{1}{p}$

p is the parsecs angle which is measured in 1 arcsecond

d is the distance in parsec

now,

$P = \dfrac{1}{d}$

$P = \dfrac{1}{1}$

$P = 1 \ parsec$

we know,

1 parsec = 3.26 light year

hence, the answer will be option E
