zed to 5 kPa. Calculate the resultant force on one side of the tank due to the air and water (ignore atmospheric pressure) and determine the height of this force above the bottom of the tank.

Answer:

Explanation:

The tank is half full so height of water level is at 1 m . Centre of gravity of water will be at height of .5 m . Pressure will act at this point .

Pressure = h d g where h is height of centre of mass of water column , d is density of water and g is acceleration due to gravity .

Pressure of water column = .5 x 10³ x 9.8 = 4.9 k Pa .

Air is pressurized to 5 kPa so

resultant pressure on one side of the tank due to the air and water

= 4.9 + 5 kPa = 9.9 kPa .

Total force on one face = pressure x area of one face under water

= 9.9 x 10³ x .5 x 2²

= 19.8 kN .

Black_prince [1.1K]

We are given with a volume of a cube equal to 512 cm3. In this case, when the volume is expressed to cubic meters, the volume will still stay the same but the number of cubic units would decrease. a centimeter is a smaller unit than a meter, hence the value given should be divided by 1 million to express to m3.

If a boat and its riders have a mass of 900 kg and the boat drifts in at 1.4 m/s how much work does sam do to stop it?

Rama09 [41]

The initial kinetic energy of the boat and its rider is
$K_i = \frac{1}{2} mv_i^2 = \frac{1}{2}(900 kg)(1.4 m/s)^2=882 J$

After Sam stops it, the final kinetic energy of the boat+rider is
$K_f = 0 J$
because its final velocity is zero.

For the law of conservation of energy, the work done by Sam is the variation of kinetic energy of the system:
$W=K_f-K_i =0-882 J=-882 J$
where the negative sign is due to the fact that the force Sam is applying goes against the direction of motion of the boat.

A spring stretches 0.150 m when a 0.30 kg mass is hung from it. The spring is then stretched an additional 0.100 m from this equ

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

a) $k=19.6N/m$

b) $V_m=0.81m/s$

c) $a_m=6.561m/s^2$

d) $K.E=0.096J$

e) $T=0.78sec$ & $F=1.29sec$

f) $mx'' + kx' =0$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Stretch Length $L=0.150m$

Mass $m=0.30kg$

Total stretch length $L_t=0.150+0.100=>0.25$

a)

Generally the equation for Force F on the spring is mathematically given by

$F=-km\\\\k=F/m\\\\k=\frac{m*g}{x}\\\\k=\frac{0.30*9.8}{0.15}$

$k=19.6N/m$

b)Generally the equation for Max Velocity of Mass on the spring is mathematically given by

$V_m=A\omega$

Where

A=Amplitude

$A=0.100m$

And

$\omega=angulat Velocity\\\\\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}\\\\\omega=\sqrt{\frac{19.6}{0.3}}\\\\\omega=8.1rad/s$

Therefore

$V_m=A\omega\\\\V_m=8.1*0.1$

$V_m=0.81m/s$

c)

Generally the equation for Max Acceleration of Mass on the spring is mathematically given by

$a_m=\omega^2A$

$a_m=8.1^2*0.1$

$a_m=6.561m/s^2$

d)

Generally the equation for Total mechanical energy of Mass on the spring is mathematically given by

$K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$K.E=\frac{1}{2}*0.3*0.8^2$

$K.E=0.096J$

e)

Generally the equation for the period T is mathematically given by

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}$

$T=\frac{2*3.142}{8.1}$

$T=0.78sec$

Generally the equation for the Frequency is mathematically given by

$F=\frac{1}{T}$

$F=1.29sec$

f)

Generally the Equation of time-dependent vertical position of the mass is mathematically given by

$mx'' + kx' =0$

Where

'= signify order of differentiation

A cylindrical resistor element on a circuit board dissipates 1.2 W of power. The resistor is 2 cm long, and has a diameter of 0.

34kurt

Answer:

(a) The resistor disspates 103680 joules during a 24-hour period.

(b) The heat flux of the resistor is approximately 4340.589 watts per square meter.

(c) The fraction of heat dissipated from the top and bottom surfaces is 0.045.

Explanation:

(a) The amount of heat dissipated ( $Q$ ), measured in joules, by the cylindrical resistor is the power multiplied by operation time ( $\Delta t$ ), measured in hours. That is:

$Q = \dot Q \cdot \Delta t$ (1)

If we know that $\dot Q = 1.2\,W$ and $\Delta t = 86400\,s$ , then the amount of heat dissipated by the resistor is:

$Q = (1.2\,W)\cdot (86400\,s)$

$Q = 103680\,J$

The resistor disspates 103680 joules during a 24-hour period.

(b) The heat flux ( $Q'$ ), measured in watts per square meter, is the heat transfer rate divided by the area of the cylinder ( $A$ ), measured in square meters:

$Q' = \frac{\dot Q}{A}$ (2)

$Q' = \frac{\dot Q}{\frac{\pi}{2}\cdot D^{2}+\pi\cdot D \cdot h }$ (3)

Where:

$D$ - Diameter, measured in meters.

$h$ - Length, measured in meters.

If we know that $\dot Q = 1.2\,W$ , $D = 4\times 10^{-3}\,m$ and $h = 2\times 10^{-2}\,m$ , the heat flux of the resistor is:

$Q' = \frac{1.2\,W}{\frac{\pi}{2}\cdot (4\times 10^{-3}\,m)^{2}+\pi\cdot (4\times 10^{-3}\,m)\cdot (2\times 10^{-2}\,m) }$

$Q' \approx 4340.589\,\frac{W}{m^{2}}$

The heat flux of the resistor is approximately 4340.589 watts per square meter.

(c) Since heat is uniformly transfered, then the fraction of heat dissipated from the top and bottom surfaces ( $r$ ), no unit, is the ratio of the top and bottom surfaces to total surface:

$r = \frac{\frac{\pi}{2}\cdot D^{2}}{A}$ (3)

If we know that $A \approx 2.765\times 10^{-4}\,m^{2}$ and $D = 4\times 10^{-3}\,m$ , then the fraction is:

$r = \frac{\frac{\pi}{2}\cdot (4\times 10^{-3}\,m)^{2} }{2.765\times 10^{-4}\,m^{2}}$

$r = 0.045$

The fraction of heat dissipated from the top and bottom surfaces is 0.045.
