Answer:

The moment of inertia is basically a physical quantity which describes how easy it is for a body to rotate itself around a given axis.

In easier wording: Moment of Inertia is a body and when it starts rotating or moving, it will keep doing so until we stop it by force.

Explanation:

For example, a car that is moving and active will continue to move even if you were to switch the engine off.

notka56 [123]

Answer:

For the two you haven't answered: (Drag greater than thrust, lift greater than weight) It will accelerate backwards (decelerate) and upwards

(Lift greater than weight, thrust greater than drag) accelerate upwards and forwards.

The amplitudes of the displacement and acceleration of an unbalanced motor were measured to be 0.15 mm and 0.6*g, respectively.

ehidna [41]

Answer:

The speed of shaft is 1891.62 RPM.

Explanation:

given that

Amplitude A= 0.15 mm

Acceleration = 0.6 g

we can say that acceleration= 0.6 x 9.81

$acceleration,a=5.88\ \frac{m}{s^2}$

We know that

$a=\omega ^2A$

So now by putting the values

$a=\omega ^2A$

$5.88=\omega ^2 \0.15\times 10^{-3}$

$\omega =198.09\ \frac{rad}{s}$

We know that

ω= 2πN/60

198.0=2πN/60

N=1891.62 RPM

So the speed of shaft is 1891.62 RPM.

A manometer containing a fluid with a density of 60 lbm/ft3 is attached to a tank filled with air. If the gage pressure of the a

8090 [49]

Answer:

The fluid level difference in the manometer arm = 22.56 ft.

Explanation:

Assumption: The fluid in the manometer is incompressible, that is, its density is constant.

The fluid level difference between the two arms of the manometer gives the gage pressure of the air in the tank.

And P(gage) = ρgh

ρ = density of the manometer fluid = 60 lbm/ft³

g = acceleration due to gravity = 32.2 ft/s²

ρg = 60 × 32.2 = 1932 lbm/ft²s²

ρg = 1932 lbm/ft²s² × 1lbf.s²/32.2lbm.ft = 60 lbf/ft³

h = fluid level difference between the two arms of the manometer = ?

P(gage) = 9.4 psig = 9.4 × 144 = 1353.6 lbf/ft²

1353.6 = ρg × h = 60 lbf/ft³ × h

h = 1353.6/60 = 22.56 ft

A diagrammatic representation of this setup is presented in the attached image.

Hope this helps!
