Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

(a) 152.85 Nm

(b) 1528.5 Nm

Explanation:

According to the formula of power

P = τ ω

ω = 2 π f

(a) f = 2500 rpm = 2500 / 60 = 41.67 rps

So, 40 x 1000 = τ x 2 x 3.14 x 41.67

τ = 152.85 Nm

(b) f = 250 rpm = 250 / 60 = 4.167 rps

So, 40 x 1000 = τ x 2 x 3.14 x 4.167

τ = 1528.5 Nm

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

At time 10.28 s after A is fired bullet B passes A.

Passing of B occurs at 4108.31 height.

Explanation:

Let h be the height at which this occurs and t be the time after second bullet fires.

Distance traveled by first bullet can be calculated using equation of motion

$s=ut+0.5at^2 \\$

Here s = h,u = 450m/s a = -g and t = t+3

Substituting

$h=450(t+3)-0.5\times 9.81\times (t+3)^2=450t+1350-4.9t^2-29.4t-44.1\\\\h=420.6t-4.9t^2+1305.9$

Distance traveled by second bullet

Here s = h,u = 600m/s a = -g and t = t

Substituting

$h=600t-0.5\times 9.81\times t^2=600t-4.9t^2\\\\h=600t-4.9t^2 \\$

Solving both equations

$600t-4.9t^2=420.6t-4.9t^2+1305.9\\\\179.4t=1305.9\\\\t=7.28s \\$

So at time 10.28 s after A is fired bullet B passes A.

Height at t = 7.28 s

$h=600\times 7.28-4.9\times 7.28^2\\\\h=4108.31m \\$

Passing of B occurs at 4108.31 height.
