Determine a formula for the magnitude of the force F exerted on the large block (Mc) so that the mass Ma does not move relative

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force F is given by

F = ( $M_{a}$ + $M_{b}$ + $M_{c}$ ) *( $M_{b}$ *g/( $\sqrt{M_{a} ^{2}-M_{b} ^{2}}$ ))

Explanation:

Given there are three blocks of masses $M_{a}$ , $M_{b}$ and $M_{c}$ (ref image in attachment)

When all three masses move together at an acceleration a, the force F is given by

F = ( $M_{a}$ + $M_{b}$ + $M_{c}$ ) *a ................(equation 1)

Also it is given that $M_{a}$ does not move with respect to $M_{c}$ , which gives tension T is exerted on pulley by $M_{a}$ only, Hence tension T is

T = $M_{a}$ *a ..........(equation 2)

There is also also tension exerted by $M_{b}$ . There are two components here: horizontal due to acceleration a and vertical component due to gravity g. Thus tension is given by

T = $M_{b}$ $\sqrt{a^{2} +g^{2} }$ ................(equation 3)

From equation 2 and 3, we get

$M_{a}$ *a = $M_{b}$ $\sqrt{a^{2} +g^{2} }$

Squaring both sides we get

$M_{a} ^{2}$ * $a^{2}$ = $M_{b} ^{2}$ * ( $a^{2}$ + $g^{2}$ )

$M_{a} ^{2}$ * $a^{2}$ = ( $M_{b} ^{2}$ * $a^{2}$ )+ ( $M_{b} ^{2}$ * $g^{2}$ )

( $M_{a} ^{2}$ - $M_{b} ^{2}$ ) * $a^{2}$ = $M_{b} ^{2}$ * $g^{2}$

$a^{2}$ = $M_{b} ^{2}$ * $g^{2}$ /( $M_{a} ^{2}$ - $M_{b} ^{2}$ )

Taking square root on both sides, we get acceleration a

a = $M_{b}$ *g/( $\sqrt{M_{a} ^{2}-M_{b} ^{2}}$ )

Hence substituting the value of a in equation 1, we get

F = ( $M_{a}$ + $M_{b}$ + $M_{c}$ ) *( $M_{b}$ *g/( $\sqrt{M_{a} ^{2}-M_{b} ^{2}}$ ))

A particular car engine operates between temperatures of 440°C (inside the cylinders of the engine) and 20°C (the temperature of

Step2247 [10]

One of the concepts to be used to solve this problem is that of thermal efficiency, that is, that coefficient or dimensionless ratio calculated as the ratio of the energy produced and the energy supplied to the machine.

From the temperature the value is given as

$\eta = 1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}$
