Answer:

7.22 × 10²⁹ kg

Explanation:

For the material to be in place, the gravitational force on the material must equal the centripetal force on the material.

So, F = gravitational force = GMm/R² where M = mass of neutron star, m = mass of object and R = radius of neutron star = 17 km

The centripetal force F' = mRω² where R = radius of neutron star and ω  = angular speed of neutron star

So, since F = F'

GMm/R² = mRω²

GM = R³ω²

M = R³ω²/G

Since ω = 500 rev/s = 500 × 2π rad/s = 1000π rad/s = 3141.6 rad/s = 3.142 × 10³ rad/s and r = 17 km = 17 × 10³ m and G = universal gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

Substituting the values of the variables into M, we have

M = R³ω²/G

M = (17 × 10³ m)³(3.142 × 10³ rad/s)²/6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

M = 4913 × 10⁹ m³ × 9.872 × 10⁶ rad²/s²/6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

M = 48,501.942 × 10¹⁵ m³rad²/s² ÷ 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

M = 7217.66 × 10²⁶ kg

M = 7.21766 × 10²⁹ kg

M ≅ 7.22 × 10²⁹ kg

You launch a cannonball at an angle of 35° and an initial velocity of 36 m/s (assume y = y₁=
velikii [3]

Answer:

Approximately 4.2\; {\rm s} (assuming that the projectile was launched at angle of 35^{\circ} above the horizon.)

Explanation:

Initial vertical component of velocity:

\begin{aligned}v_{y} &= v\, \sin(35^{\circ}) \\ &= (36\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}})\, (\sin(35^{\circ})) \\ &\approx 20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}.

The question assumed that there is no drag on this projectile. Additionally, the altitude of this projectile just before landing y_{1} is the same as the altitude y_{0} at which this projectile was launched: y_{0} = y_{1}.

Hence, the initial vertical velocity of this projectile would be the exact opposite of the vertical velocity of this projectile right before landing. Since the initial vertical velocity is 20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}} (upwards,) the vertical velocity right before landing would be (-20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) (downwards.) The change in vertical velocity is:

\begin{aligned}\Delta v_{y} &= (-20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) - (20.6\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}) \\ &= -41.2\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}\end{aligned}.

Since there is no drag on this projectile, the vertical acceleration of this projectile would be g. In other words, a = g = -9.81\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}}.

Hence, the time it takes to achieve a (vertical) velocity change of \Delta v_{y} would be:

\begin{aligned} t &= \frac{\Delta v_{y}}{a_{y}} \\ &= \frac{-41.2\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-1}}}{-9.81\; {\rm m\cdot s^{-2}}} \\ &\approx 4.2\; {\rm s} \end{aligned}.

Hence, this projectile would be in the air for approximately 4.2\; {\rm s}.

Continuous and aligned fiber-reinforced composite with cross-sectional area of 340 mm2 (0.53 in.2) is subjected to a longitudina
Alecsey [184]

(a) 23.4

The fiber-to-matrix load ratio is given by

\frac{F_f}{F_m}=\frac{E_f V_f}{E_m V_m}

where

E_f = 131 GPa is the fiber elasticity module

E_m = 2.4 GPa is the matrix elasticity module

V_f=0.3 is the fraction of volume of the fiber

V_m=0.7 is the fraction of volume of the matrix

Substituting,

\frac{F_f}{F_m}=\frac{(131 GPa)(0.3)}{(2.4 GPa)(0.7)}=23.4 (1)

(b) 44,594 N

The longitudinal load is

F = 46500 N

And it is sum of the loads carried by the fiber phase and the matrix phase:

F=F_f + F_m (2)

We can rewrite (1) as

F_m = \frac{F_f}{23.4}

And inserting this into (2):

F=F_f + \frac{F_f}{23.4}

Solving the equation, we find the actual load carried by the fiber phase:

F=F_f (1+\frac{1}{23.4})\\F_f = \frac{F}{1+\frac{1}{23.4}}=\frac{46500 N}{1+\frac{1}{23.4}}=44,594 N

(c) 1,906 N

Since we know that the longitudinal load is the sum of the loads carried by the fiber phase and the matrix phase:

F=F_f + F_m (2)

Using

F = 46500 N

F_f = 44594 N

We can immediately find the actual load carried by the matrix phase:

F_m = F-F_f = 46,500 N - 44,594 N=1,906 N

(d) 437 MPa

The cross-sectional area of the fiber phase is

A_f = A V_f

where

A=340 mm^2=340\cdot 10^{-6}m^2 is the total cross-sectional area

Substituting V_f=0.3, we have

A_f = (340\cdot 10^{-6} m^2)(0.3)=102\cdot 10^{-6} m^2

And the magnitude of the stress on the fiber phase is

\sigma_f = \frac{F_f}{A_f}=\frac{44594 N}{102\cdot 10^{-6} m^2}=4.37\cdot 10^8 Pa = 437 MPa

(e) 8.0 MPa

The cross-sectional area of the matrix phase is

A_m = A V_m

where

A=340 mm^2=340\cdot 10^{-6}m^2 is the total cross-sectional area

Substituting V_m=0.7, we have

A_m = (340\cdot 10^{-6} m^2)(0.7)=238\cdot 10^{-6} m^2

And the magnitude of the stress on the matrix phase is

\sigma_m = \frac{F_m}{A_m}=\frac{1906 N}{238\cdot 10^{-6} m^2}=8.0\cdot 10^6 Pa = 8.0 MPa

(f) 3.34\cdot 10^{-3}

The longitudinal modulus of elasticity is

E = E_f V_f + E_m V_m = (131 GPa)(0.3)+(2.4 GPa)(0.7)=41.0 Gpa

While the total stress experienced by the composite is

\sigma = \frac{F}{A}=\frac{46500 N}{340\cdot 10^{-6}m^2}=1.37\cdot 10^8 Pa = 0.137 GPa

So, the strain experienced by the composite is

\epsilon=\frac{\sigma}{E}=\frac{0.137 GPa}{41.0 GPa}=3.34\cdot 10^{-3}
