Answer:

k=19 N/m

Explanation:

Use the equation F=kx for this problem and isolate k since that is what you're solving for (k=F/x). Plug in your values (F=1.2 N and x=0.064 m) and solve for k which is 19 N/m.

A factory emits pollutants at a rate of 25 g/s. The factory is located between two mountain ranges resulting in an effective val

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

$1.25\ \mu\text{g/m}^3$

Explanation:

v = Velocity of the breeze = 4 m/s

w = Width of the valley = 5000 m

h = Height of the valley = 1000 m

Volumetric flow rate is given by

$\dot{V}=vwh\\\Rightarrow \dot{V}=4\times 5000\times 1000\\\Rightarrow \dot{V}=2\times10^{7}\ \text{m}^3/\text{s}$

$\dot{m}$ = Mass flow rate of pollutant = 25 g/s = $25\times 10^6\ \mu\text{g/s}$

Concentration is given by

$C=\dfrac{\dot{m}}{\dot{V}}\\\Rightarrow C=\dfrac{25\times 10^6}{2\times 10^7}\\\Rightarrow C=1.25\ \mu\text{g/m}^3$

The steady state concentration of pollutants in the valley, is $1.25\ \mu\text{g/m}^3$ .

A flywheel in a motor is spinning at 510 rpm when a power failure suddenly occurs. The flywheel has mass 40.0 kg and diameter 75

8_murik_8 [283]

Complete Question

A flywheel in a motor is spinning at 510 rpm when a power failure suddenly occurs. The flywheel has mass 40.0 kg and diameter 75.0 cm . The power is off for 40.0 s , and during this time the flywheel slows down uniformly due to friction in its axle bearings. During the time the power is off, the flywheel makes 210 complete revolutions. At what rate is the flywheel spinning when the power comes back on(in rpm)? How long after the beginning of the power failure would it have taken the flywheel to stop if the power had not come back on, and how many revolutions would the wheel have made during this time?

Answer:

$\theta=274rev$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Angular velocity $\omega=510rpm$

Mass $m=40.kg$

Diameter d $75=>0.75m$

Off Time $t=40.0s$

Oscillation at Power off $N=210$

Generally the equation for Angular displacement is mathematically given by

$\theta_{\infty}=\frac{w+w_0}{t}t$

$w=\frac{2*\theta_{\infty}}{t}-w_0$

$w=\frac{28210}{40*(\frac{1}{60})}-510$

$w=120rpm$

Generally the equation for Time to come to rest is mathematically given by

$t=(\frac{\omega_0}{\omega_0-\omega})t$

$t=(\frac{510}{510-120rpm})(40.0)(\frac{1}{60})$

$t=0.87min$

Therefore Angular displacement is

$\theta =(\frac{120+510}{2})0.87$

$\theta=274rev$

A support crossbeam on a high speed train is made from a titanium rod that has a length of 0.650m when measured by an observer o

Vilka [71]

Answer:

A) The crossbeam is moving relative to the observer on the platform so the height appears contracted.

Explanation:

The observer on the train and the beam are in the same reference frame. That means observer on the train will measure the proper length of the beam not the contracted length . the observer is outside and the plank is in the moving system,it will appear to be moving.
